What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Water beneath vinyl can linger after mopping. Since a waterlogged substrate can support mold within 24 to 48 hours, technicians assess the substrate and avoid sealing moisture under a new finish.
- Keep away from hot piping and turn the heating system off by its normal control.
- Keep people away from wet outlets, ceiling fixtures, and standing water of unknown origin.
- Move dry documents and electronics away from the wet floor.
- Photograph the water level, wet rooms, and damaged belongings before cleanup.
