Power Outages

If your business or home has suffered from a power outage, there are a few things you can do to get the electricity back on. First, check your circuit breaker or fuse box to see if the power has been turned off. If it has, turns it back on and wait a few minutes to see if the power comes back on. If it doesn't, contact your local utility company to report the outage. 

In the meantime, there are some things you can do to stay safe during a power outage. Avoid using candles as they can be a fire hazard. Use battery-powered lanterns or flashlights instead. If you have any perishable food in your fridge or freezer, use it up before it goes bad. 

Storm Surges

If your business or home has been affected by a storm surge, the first thing you should do is contact your insurance company to start the claims process. Next, take pictures of any damage that has been done so that you have documentation for your insurance claim. 

Then, start cleaning up the mess! Remove any wet items from your home or office and try to dry out the area as much as possible. If possible, put wet items outside in the sun to speed up the drying process. And if you have any important documents or files that have been damaged by the water, try to salvage them by putting them in a freezer or dehydrator.

Mold Removal

Mold can be dangerous to your health, so it's important to remove it as soon as possible after a flood. Start by opening up any windows and doors to allow fresh air into the room. Then, clean all surfaces with a mixture of bleach and water. Once you've done that, throw away any porous materials like carpets or drywall that have been affected by mold.
