Electrical safety in a wet basement
- Never step into a basement or room where water may be in contact with outlets, appliances or cords.
- Never try to turn off power if you must stand in or walk through water to do it.
- If an electrical appliance has been in contact with water, have a professional assess it before use.
During cleanup
The City notes that floodwater may be contaminated by sewer water. Wear gloves and boots, avoid touching floodwater with bare hands or feet, and do not store valuables or appliances in the basement where they are more likely to be flooded again.
Where Guardian fits
A plumber, the municipality or the region deals with the pipe or sewer itself. Guardian deals with what the water has already reached: we extract it, map moisture in floors and walls, run monitored drying, and keep photo and moisture records for your insurer. We also handle fire and smoke damage and mould remediation.
