What Kitchen Water Damage Water Cleanup Includes in Dresden

A plumber or the appropriate trade fixes the source; a cleanup crew dries the damage. Call Water Cleanup Team USA at (888) 578-6508.

- Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
- Photograph cabinet bases before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
- Move dry valuables out of the path without walking through water.
