These helpful tips will get you prepared for a visit from your water restoration team.

Water damage is a common issue that can quickly cause severe damage and expenses. However, you can prevent major losses by taking the right steps. If you suspect water damage, contact SERVPRO of Park la Brea first, and then follow these steps:

• Stop the water damage at the source
  
  
• Protect your belongings: Remove loose items from floors and wipe excess water from wood furniture to prevent any damage. Take out wet upholstery, cushions, and colored rugs that may stain floor coverings.
  
  
• Keep furniture and draperies dry: Pin up draperies and furniture skirts to keep them as dry as possible and prevent staining. Place plastic blocks or aluminum foil between furniture legs and wet carpeting.
  
  
• Move decor to a dry place: Move art and other decor items to a dry area to prevent damage.
