How Apartment Flood Water Removal Works in Saint Paul

Find moisture beyond the puddle

-
Remove materials that hold unsafe water

- Tell building management immediately and move belongings from dripping areas.
- Keep children and pets outside the wet area.
- Photograph the source and affected materials if safe.
- Move loose belongings away from spreading water.
