Stop the source if safe

Turn off the water supply, avoid electrical hazards, and stay out of contaminated water when sewage is involved.

Water damage FAQ

Questions Indianapolis homeowners ask about water damage restoration and emergency cleanup.

What should I do first if my basement is flooding?

If it is safe, stop the water source, avoid electrical hazards, move valuables out of the affected area, and call for help quickly. Do not enter water that may be contaminated or near live electrical equipment.

Is sewage backup different from regular water damage?

Yes. Sewage backup can involve contaminated water, bacteria, and unsafe materials. Homeowners should avoid direct contact and ask for cleanup procedures that address sanitation as well as drying.

How fast should water extraction begin?

Emergency water removal should begin as soon as possible. Delays can allow moisture to spread into flooring, drywall, trim, insulation, and concealed cavities.

Do I need photos before cleanup starts?

Photos and notes are helpful for insurance conversations and repair planning. Capture affected rooms, the suspected source, wet materials, and any visible standing water before items are moved when possible.
