What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
The clock starts when the water arrives, not when it is noticed. A basement that flooded while the family was away may already be past the first 48 hours.
- 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
