Stop The Water Immediately
When you notice water entering your home through a crack or leak, stop the flow of water as soon as possible. Do not try to fight the water with buckets or towels, as this can cause further damage.
Assess The Damage
Once you have stopped the water, assess the damage to your home and belongings. Take photos of any damage for insurance purposes. Do not enter your home until it is safe to do so.
Document The Damage
Keep a record of all the damage you have sustained, including receipts for repairs and any documentation from your insurance company. This will help you when filing your insurance claim.
