FLOODED CARPET ACTION PLAN – Step 02 2019-10-31T13:59:29+00:00

Step 2: Ensure the source of the flood damage has ceased

Too often people set about the clean-up of their flood affected carpet, only to discover later that water is continuing to leak, making the clean-up harder work than it should be, or simply not effective.

It might even be that the customer has already had a plumber arrive on the scene to shut the water off and repair the root cause, but if there is still residual water coming from any source (such as leftover leaking), then it is important to deal with that leak first before the drying begins.
