How Burst Pipe Flood Cleanup Works in Pinecrest
-
Remove standing water

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Standing water is the visible part of a flood loss. The crew also checks hidden materials that could remain moist after pumping. Pumping alone does not dry a wall cavity.
- Close the main water valve if safe.
- Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
- Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
- Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
- Call Flood Cleanup Response Team at (888) 471-9821, 24/7, and describe the burst pipe water.
