What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Mold is a risk when wood, drywall or paper facing stays wet. The restoration crew focuses on removing water and drying the structure before that moisture lingers.
- Close the sink shutoff or main valve when it is safe to do so.
- Avoid using a disposal, outlet or appliance in the wet area.
- Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
- Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
- Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.
