Safety & Compliance · Intermediate
Begin this checklist immediately upon discovering water damage. The first priority is stopping the water source. The second is electrical safety. Then document, extract, and dry. Call a restoration company for significant damage — they have industrial equipment that accelerates drying.
Respond to water damage incidents quickly and effectively with this step-by-step checklist. Covers water source identification and shut-off, electrical safety assessment, damage documentation, water extraction, drying and dehumidification, mould prevention, and insurance claim procedures.
Water damage from burst pipes, roof leaks, or equipment failures worsens by the hour. Mould can start growing within 24–48 hours. Fast response — stop the water, remove it, and start drying — dramatically reduces repair costs and downtime.
