Spicola Restoration offers this article as a guide for those experiencing a disaster such as a leak, hurricane, flood or similar incidents to help them prepare before professional help arrives.
Stopping the water source:
The first step in water damage recovery is to stop the water source. This may mean shutting off the main water supply, fixing a leaking pipe, or patching a hole in the roof. It is important to fix the water source as soon as possible to prevent further damage and to minimize the amount of water to be removed. Recovery becomes more complex and costly if the water source is not addressed.
Assessing the damage:
After the water source has been stopped, the next step is to assess the damage. The extent of the water damage is determined and areas that require special attention are identified. Documenting the damage with photos and notes is essential as this information is useful when working with insurance companies or restoration professionals
Removing Water and Moisture:
The third step to effectively recovering from water damage is to remove standing water and moisture from the affected area. This can be done with pumps, wet vacuums and dehumidifiers. Fast action is essential, because standing water can lead to mold growth and further damage to the property. Once the water has been removed it is important to use fans and open windows to encourage air circulation and dry the area. See Spicola Restoration Water Restoration for more information.
Cleaning and disinfecting the affected area:
After removing the standing water and drying the area, it is important to thoroughly clean and disinfect the affected area. This helps prevent the growth of mold and bacteria that can cause health problems and further damage to the property. This is done using a mixture of water and bleach for cleaning hard surfaces and a special cleaner for carpets and upholstery. Protective equipment such as gloves and a mask is required during cleaning to avoid contact with harmful substances.
Restoration and repair of damaged property:
Once the affected area has been cleaned and disinfected, it is time to restore and repair any damage that has been done. This may include replacing drywall, flooring, or any other material that has been damaged beyond repair. Working with a professional restoration company is crucial to ensure repairs are done correctly and safely. They can also help navigate the insurance claims process and ensure you get the compensation you deserve for the damage.
