Water Damage Repair For Berkeley Lake, Ga

Water damage happens unexpectedly and can quickly worsen if not addressed immediately. Here are the crucial steps to follow if your property floods or suffers water damage:

1. Stop the Water at its Source

Unless the flooding is due to a natural disaster, locate and shut off the main water valve to halt any ongoing water intrusion. It’s wise to familiarize yourself with this location before emergencies strike.

2. Turn Off the Electricity Safely

Once you’ve stopped the water, turn off all electrical systems in affected areas—but never walk through standing water to reach a fuse box. If access isn’t safe, call a licensed electrician for help.

3. Evacuate and Ensure Safety

If the situation involves a burst pipe, sewage backup, or dangerous flooding, evacuate everyone (including pets) to a dry, safe location. During natural disasters, follow authorities’ guidance for shelter and relocation. Always prioritize health and safety over property.

4. Call for Assistance

After ensuring everyone’s well-being:

• Call 911 for medical emergencies.
• Renters: Contact your landlord immediately to report the damage.
• Homeowners: Call your insurance provider to start the claims process and confirm if you need to wait for an adjuster before beginning cleanup.
• Contact Water Pro for immediate, expert water damage repair and restoration.

5. Document Everything

Before beginning any cleanup:

• Photograph and video all damage for your insurance claim.
• Wear protective gear (waders, waterproof boots) to avoid exposure to contaminants.

6. Begin the Cleanup Process

• Remove standing water using pumps, wet/dry vacuums, or buckets.
• Remove soaked materials (carpets, furniture, drywall) to prevent mold.
• Use fans, dehumidifiers, and open windows (weather permitting) to dry the area.
• Clean and disinfect all surfaces to prevent bacteria and mold.

7. Prevent Mold Damage

Dry all affected spaces as thoroughly and quickly as possible. Treat vulnerable areas with a strong cleaner such as a bleach solution. Mold can develop within 24–48 hours, so fast action is critical.
