- A dry surface alone cannot confirm that a cavity or subfloor is dry.
- If the source is plumbing, shut off the supply valve when it is safe to reach.
- Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
- Move dry belongings out of the water path when safe.
- Photograph visible water and damaged belongings before moving them.
