With flooding can come property damage, including that of your home’s structure. No homeowner wants to be stuck with a flooded home and would prefer to have had a solution in place before there is nothing left to do about it but assess the damage and clean up.

There are waterproofing services available to you to greatly increase your chance of being able to avoid basement flooding, like the ones we provide here at Basement Masters Waterproofing.

5 Flood Debris Removal Safety Tips

Below, we have listed five things to look out for to avoid the dangers that rush in with flooded households:

1. Downed Power Lines

Flooding can cause erosion powerful enough to bring down power lines. Before you reenter your home, be sure none of these dangers exist around the perimeter.

2. Broken or Frayed Electrical Wiring

Electrical wiring may have become broken or frayed inside your home from such a situation. Be sure to stay far from outlets and wiring, and have an electrician take a look for any threats.

3. Compromised Appliances

If your appliances such as a refrigerator, HVAC system, water heater, etc. have become compromised by the flooding, abstain from using them before they can be inspected to prevent fires.

4. Inhibit Mold Growth

Drying out the inside of your home and wet belongings as soon as possible is essential for inhibiting mold growth that can begin growing as soon as 24 hours!

5. Septic Tank or Well Water Inspection

Having your septic tank inspected for clogging or well-water system inspected for sediment contamination after a flood is essential for the safety of your family. Remaining floodwaters can be contaminated with fecal matter and accompanying diseases.

If your home has been affected by flooding, we hope you utilize these safety tips to prevent unwanted problems and injuries.
