When you send a request from Rye Brook, we pass it to a local water damage restoration contractor who serves your area. They contact you, inspect the damage, take moisture readings and give you a written scope and price. You decide whether to hire them.
Before help arrives, close the main water shutoff if the water is coming from your plumbing, stay away from wet electrical areas and photograph everything. If you smell gas, leave the house and call 911 or your gas utility. Move what you can off wet floors, but leave demolition to the contractor. If the water came from a toilet, sewer or outside flooding, say so in your request, because sewage backup cleanup needs different handling.
Ask any contractor in Rye Brook for a Westchester County home improvement license number, proof of insurance and a written scope that lists what will be removed and how drying will be measured. If mold is already visible, see mold remediation.
