What to do When Water Strikes

Water damage is not only from storms or coastal flooding, but it can also be a pipe leak or break, a washer hose that disconnected from the drain, and unbelievably... forgetting to shut the bathtub faucet off. This video gives you a quick synopsis from start to finish of a family that discovered water in the basement of their new home. There are two important things to remember. First, when you discover water- find the source. 2nd- call the experts! Call SERVPRO of Manahawkin! As in this short video, the experienced professionals know how to get you stabilized until help arrives. Once help arrives, that is us, we confirm the source and confirm the water has stopped coming in. The crew will extract the water, place drying equipment to properly dry the space. Of course, there is a lot more to it, but hopefully this has helped.
