- Stay out of standing water near outlets, wiring or appliances.
- Follow local reentry instructions if the neighborhood has flooded.
- Photograph the visible water line and affected belongings from a safe place.
- Keep children and pets away from wet rooms and contaminated items.
- Call (888) 450-9281 so extraction can begin when access is safe.

Flash Flood House Cleanup Questions in Chloe
Should anyone enter right after the flash flood?
Stay out until local authorities permit reentry and electrical hazards have been assessed. Floodwater can carry sewage and chemicals. Call 24/7 after the building is safe to approach.
Can mud be left to dry before cleanup?
Dried sediment becomes harder to remove and can remain inside joints. A crew extracts the water, removes sediment and cleans exposed surfaces. Early action also limits moisture migration.
What if flash flood house cleanup affects a rental?
Tell the property manager. The crew may need building access approval.
Should a Chloe owner photograph flash flood house cleanup damage?
Yes, from safe ground. Keep dated images of the waterline and affected belongings.
How are wet walls handled during flash flood house cleanup?
Moisture mapping shows where openings or removal may be needed before drying.
