- Shut off the main. Outside, street side of the house, usually within 10 feet of where the water service enters. If you can't find it, call dispatch and the agent walks you through it.
- Cut power to wet rooms at the breaker. Never reach into a flooded room to flip a switch.
- Photograph everything before moving items. Wide shots of each room, close-ups of damage, the source. This is your insurance evidence.

- Mitigation is required. Your policy literally requires you to call a restoration company immediately. Calling us protects your claim.
- We document to adjuster standard. Moisture readings, photos, scope. The carrier rarely pushes back on a properly documented mitigation invoice.
- Direct billing. You don't pay us, then chase reimbursement. We invoice the carrier; you pay your deductible.
