You have a flooded basement -- now what?

It's never fun to come home to a flooded basement. Flooded basements occur during storm season or a rainy day gone wrong. We don't want your cleanup process to be anything but easy! Here are some techniques you can use to make the process easier before we arrive:

• Use wooden clothespins to hang up clothes, children’s stuffed animals, and photographs that may have been effected.
• Make sure that furs and leather items dry separately and at room temperature.
• Place aluminum foil or wood blocks between furniture and wet carpeting.
• Remove upholstery and cushions for drying.
• Remove any excess water by mopping or blotting until we arrive.
