Lizards and Water Losses

Every once in a while we do a water loss or flood that has creepy crawlies. It's always fun to see them and we do what we can to release them back into the wild.

Floor Removal on Water Loss

The water had sat for too long causing the subfloor to get wet and to warp. Quick mitigation could have saved the tile and the homeowner would not have had to make a claim. The first 48 hours of a water damage are very important. Be sure to call right away.

1. Have an experienced restoration contractor remove the water. This is referred to as emergency services and is critical to prevent secondary damages. 

2. Contact your insurance company to discuss policy. 

3. Follow recommendations as noted by the IICRC. 

4. Document and take lots of pictures of the restoration process. 

1. First contact an emergency service restoration company such as SERVPRO of Eagan/ Apple Valley. 

2. Contact your insurance company to discuss the options with your policy. 

3. Once a scope of service is agreed upon, have SERVPRO begin to mitigate damages.

4. Follow proper protocol form start to finish.
