Pocka Dola released their free report today: Cleaning Up After A Flood. This report reveals what to do after the rain stops and flood waters retreat and what safety procedures should be followed in the event of a flood.
Pocka Dola owner says for too long people have been in the dark on the costs and problems with carpet flood damage and restorations. This report helps to open the curtains on the industry and give regular people insights they won't find elsewhere.
Below is a list of tips from Pocka Dola:
Gather valuable documents or belongings and store them in a secure, dry place before the storm hits. Debris from gutters and downspouts should be cleared and the sump pump should be checked to ensure it is optimally functional. Remove items from lower floors by raising them up off of the floor to help minimize property damage.
Be cautious of safety hazards and structural integrity such as falling debris or shock hazards. Even if the electricity is down, shut off all electricity in the affected areas as oftentimes power is restored without notice.
Also, have proper personal protective equipment on hand to reduce the risk of injury and try to stay out of floodwaters as much as possible. Proper personal protective equipment such as protective clothing, sturdy shoes, gloves, eye protection and even an organic vapor respirator (paint respirator) provides protection from exposure to dangerous microorganisms that can grow quickly.
The above procedures may require the assistance of a professional. Water damage restoration companies employ trained technicians who specialize in cleaning, biocides, extraction, drying and moisture measuring. Make sure the company has proper licensing, liability insurance and employs trained technicians in water restoration services.
