Emergency water damage restoration is for water that is still moving or has just stopped: a pipe that split in a freeze, a water heater tank that let go, or rain coming through a hail-damaged roof. In Edmond these calls cluster around hard freezes in winter and severe storms from April through June.
The first goal is to stop more water from coming in. That means the main shutoff, the water heater's cold supply valve, or a tarp on the roof. Next comes extraction, because every hour water sits on a slab floor it moves farther under walls and cabinets.
Extraction at night uses truck-mounted or portable units to pull water from carpet and hard floors. Air movers and dehumidifiers go in right after. If the water touched outlets or the electric panel, power to those rooms stays off until an electrician checks them.
Things to do while you wait: turn off the main valve, switch off breakers to wet rooms if the panel is dry and safe to reach, move rugs and electronics, and take photos. Do not use a household vacuum on standing water.
