How do you prevent mold after water damage?

What should I do while waiting for your crew to arrive?

If it's safe: turn off electricity to the affected area, stop the water source if you can identify it, move valuables to dry areas, and avoid walking through standing water (it may be contaminated).

Often, yes. Our content restoration process can recover many items that appear ruined. Electronics, photos, documents, upholstery, and wood furniture all have specific recovery protocols. The sooner we begin, the higher the salvage rate. We inventory everything and let you know what's recoverable.
