What To Do When You Find Your Property is Flooded
We May Ask Some Questions
Flooding from the rain, burst pipe, sewerage backflow? You will need to ascertain the cause. Without stopping the liquid flowing into your property, we can not restore it, and more water damage will occur.
Perhaps you need a plumber, a drain layer, or council water reticulation services such as Watercare or Hamilton council.
We can still help remove as much liquid as possible while it is coming in to mitigate damages. However, we are unable to begin drying until water has stopped flowing.
The longer the time that has elapsed, the deeper the liquid absorbs. We adjust our drying and cleaning strategies, depending on the amount of time that has passed since the flood started.
Maybe you just arrived back from holiday and walked into a flooded home, office or property? Which is not uncommon. Let us know how long you think it could have been, as we may need to take action against microbial growth.
How many rooms, floors, and the area’s size is essential to ensure we turn up with enough staff and equipment. We will remove the standing water and dry the affected space and materials.
Has the flood travelled from a level above? Perhaps the electrical supply needs to be isolated to ensure safety.
Make sure to check in surrounding rooms and cupboards to ensure your contents do not get damaged. Remove as much furniture from the flood area as possible.
Freshwater, washing machine water, rainwater, or sewerage?
Depending on the flood source, it can change the actions we take to restore your property. See below for the categories and the correct methods of remediation.

Special Situations
Floods where regulated hazardous substances may be present, eg. Asbestos containing material or Clandestine P or Meth Labs – Will require special training to be able to dry the flooded area safely and consider the issuue of the hazardous materials.
- Mostly a combination of all the above items however third parties may be required to safely treat, remove, dispose or assess the materials within the flooded property
Step 2 - We're on our way. Protect your contents from further damage & take photos
Now that we are on our way and the flooding has stopped, you can start to move household items out of the affected area into a safe location. Before you do so, please take photos of the pre-existing condition of everything.
We will send you a unique link to send photos or video directly to our reporting software. It will add them to your flood report for issuing to your insurance provider. If your contents are wet and damaged, please leave them in a room that we will be able to put our dehumidifiers and air blowers in to dry these contents for you. We will also add these damaged contents to your report for claiming if necessary.
We will need as much of your furniture off the wet carpet as possible to dry the carpet and building. Suppose you have photo frames, pictures, art or wall hangings. In that case, they should be taken down and stored safely as drying equipment produces a decent amount of air that may dislodge them.
If it is a grey or black water flood, the items may be unhygienic to restore and keep; therefore, it may be best to dispose of them. Remember to take photos for insurance purposes.
