How Older and Historic Home Flood Water Removal Works in Christmas Valley

• Keep clear of unstable plaster and avoid disturbing old finishes before evaluation.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
