First things you should do in a flood emergency

Terminate the source of water if possible. If you cannot do this, call a plumber or qualified trades person
Contact us to begin the drying process immediately
Turn off circuit breakers (mains power) if safe to do so
If possible, move and secure any small furniture from the affected area
Protect carpet against staining by using foil, plastic tabs, Styrofoam blocks or plastic wrap underneath furniture legs
Move any area rugs to an unaffected area. Be careful as these can bleed onto other surfaces.
Hang drapes so that they are completely off the floor
Remove any items that could stain the carpet or get damaged by water – books, shoes, paper goods, fabrics, potted plants, etc
Remove and secure any breakables including valuable paintings and pictures from any wet walls.
Contact a doctor if you have any health concerns
