Keep your phone charged or have a battery charger that doesn't rely on electricity.

When you call us, we will begin the systematic process of securing your property. Insurance policies require mitigation to be done as quickly as it can be. Mitigating damage should be performed posthaste, for the longer the property is left in its damaged state without temporary repairs increases the amount of damage water can do to the structure. After a water event, the structure may be left with a severe leak or missing wall or damaged roof which will allow the entry of water, dust, dirt, and debris. The sooner its dealt with, the lower the expense of consequential damage and mess.
