What should I do after a basement flood?

• If possible, shut off the water source. If the source is unidentifiable, we recommend hiring a plumber.
• Check to see if your sump pump or drain is in working condition. If the sump pump and drain appear to be clogged, get the area unclogged so they can drain any water from the basement after flooding.
• Remove excess water by mopping, blotting, or wiping.
• Protect carpet, rugs, drapes, and upholstered items from further water damage. Place aluminum foil between furniture and carpets. Remove any important documents, family heirlooms.
• Avoid using electric or electronic items that have come in contact with water.
