An overflowing room is not a routine clean.
Floodwater, a burst pipe and an appliance leak do not leave the same conditions behind. Tell us what happened, how many rooms are affected and whether the source has been stopped.
If authorities have evacuated an area, wait for clearance to return. Avoid flooded electrical equipment and unsafe parts of the property. Call 000 if someone is in immediate danger.
Work through the damage in order.
A useful restoration plan identifies bulk water removal, affected carpet and underlay, wet walls or ceiling spaces, and any materials that may need removal. It should also explain what needs a plumber, electrician or other appropriately qualified trade.
Drying follows assessment and extraction where suitable. Photos, observations and moisture records can help you keep track of the work and discuss it with your property manager or insurer.
- Understand the source and affected rooms
- Remove standing water where safe and appropriate
- Assess material condition and contamination
- Plan drying and any necessary follow-on work
Keep one record of what happened.
From a safe place, note when the water was first noticed and who has already attended. Keep invoices, photos and conversations together. If you rent, notify the property manager promptly and ask who can approve restoration work.

Is flood restoration covered by insurance?
Your insurer decides coverage under your policy. We can discuss the documentation needed for the restoration scope, but cannot promise that a claim will be accepted.
