My House Flooded — What Should I Do?
Emergency Guide for Cleveland, Lake, Cuyahoga & Geauga Counties
If your home has flooded—whether from a burst pipe, sewer backup, or sump pump failure—you need to act fast. Flood damage can escalate quickly, and taking the right steps now could make all the difference.
🚨 Step 1: Stop the Source & Ensure Safety
Shut off the main water valve if possible and avoid flood water—especially if sewage or electricity is involved.
