• Step 1 –The very first thing you should do when you notice a flood occurring in your home is to shut off the water to prevent additional water flooding your home. Next, call a water damage restoration company so they can come and start removing the water. Removing the water will start the process of restoration.
• Step 2 – Now that the water has been removed from your home, it is time to start removing the damaged personal items, as well as the damaged parts of the home. Our water damage restoration experts can help you decide what is salvageable and what isn’t, especially when it comes to things like drywall or flooring.
• Step 3 - Now that the water and damaged parts have been removed, it is time to start putting your home back together again.

We can also refer you to a restoration company that can help you with this step.
