Once the claim process has begun you should start cleaning up your property to prevent the growth and spread of mold. Some tips when cleaning up after a flood: • Wear heavy work gloves, protective clothing and boots. • Dispose of hazardous items once photographed. • Remove wet carpet/materials, if possible. • Be aware that snakes and other animals may be in your house. • Clean with soap and water.
