How to perform a visual inspection around the exterior

When you first determine there is a water leak or flood, it is recommended to perform a basic visual inspection of the outside of your home. The goal with this inspection is to determine evidence of any electrical connections such as downed power lines, which may be in contact with the water. If there are, contact the fire department immediately.

Determine your safety during any water emergency

If you wish to perform an in home inspection prior to calling a water damage specialist, we suggest for you to protect yourself and your family. It is best to wear a pair of waterproof rubber boots to protect your feet from sharp objects or contamination. While you’re at it, grab a pair of rubber gloves and a hard hat if you have one. One of the dangers of flood water is contamination from chemicals and oil in the water, or worse – raw sewage.
