What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Mold needs moisture, food and time. A flooded basement supplies the first two at once, so the third is the only one anyone controls. Fast water removal is that control.
- Stay out of the basement, since power can return while the water is still there
- Turn off the main breaker only if the panel is dry and you can reach it standing on dry ground
- Run any generator outdoors, far from windows and doors, never in a basement or garage
- Photograph the pit, the waterline and the damage with your phone light
- Carry valuables up only if the stairs and floor are dry and safe
