When water damage strikes your Central Texas home, every second counts. Whether it’s caused by a burst pipe, severe storm, or appliance failure, taking immediate action can reduce structural damage and prevent mold growth. At RestoTek, we specialize in water damage restoration and emergency cleanup across Georgetown and surrounding areas—and we’re here to help you act fast.
1. Turn Off the Water Source
As soon as you notice water damage, shut off the main water supply if the issue is internal (like a plumbing leak). This prevents further flooding while you assess the damage.
2. Ensure Electrical Safety
If water is near electrical outlets, avoid touching anything and turn off the power at the breaker box. Water and electricity are a dangerous combination—when in doubt, call a professional.
3. Document the Damage
Before cleanup begins, take photos or videos of all affected areas. This documentation can be critical for insurance claims and ensure you receive fair compensation.
4. Remove Excess Water
While waiting for professionals to arrive, you can start removing standing water with towels, mops, or a wet/dry vacuum (if safe). The faster you remove the water, the less damage it can cause to flooring and walls.
