After The Flood

Protect yourself and your family from stress, fatigue and health hazards that follow a flood.

Once it is safe to go back in, protect your home and contents from further damage.

Some things are not worth repairing and some things may be too complicated or expensive to do by yourself. A recovery plan can take this into account and help you make the most of your time and money.

Flood waters damage materials, leave mud, silt and unknown contaminants and promote the growth of mildew. You need to dry your home to reduce these hazards and the damage they cause.

The walls, floors, shelves, contents and any other flooded parts of your home should be thoroughly washed and disinfected.

Protect yourself from the next flood; a flood response plan is essential to avoid further damage.
