What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Prompt extraction reduces the time water remains inside floors and walls. The crew also checks absorbent layers below the surface.
- Water beside outlets or a basement panel needs an electrical check before anyone steps into it.
- If the source is plumbing, shut off the supply valve when it is safe to reach.
- Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
- Move dry belongings out of the water path when safe.
- Photograph visible water and damaged belongings before moving them.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Warm-climate construction may leave pipes in less protected spaces. A cold snap can catch those lines. Attic water can run down framing into lower rooms.
