The First 60 Minutes
When every second counts, follow this high-priority protocol to protect your property and family:
1. Safety First (Power Off)
Ensure your path is safe. Switch off the main electrical breaker before stepping into any standing water.
2. Stop the Flow
Locate your main water shut-off valve and turn it clockwise until it stops.
3. Document the Damage
Before moving anything, take 5–10 clear photos and a quick video of the source and the affected rooms.
4. Protect Your Belongings
Move small items, electronics, and valuables to a dry area of the home.
5. Call for Professional Mitigation
Contact Drytek Solutions for a certified mitigation expert right away.
Why "Drying it Yourself" Isn't Enough
Surface dryness is often misleading. Water can hide behind baseboards, under subfloors, and inside drywall. Without professional-grade equipment, this trapped moisture can lead to:
Structural Rot
Weakening the bones of your home.
Mold Growth
Which can begin in as little as 24–48 hours.
Insurance Issues
Many policies require professional mitigation to cover secondary damages.
