What to do
Fast action helps reduce secondary damage
A hot water system burst can send water into garages, laundries, cupboards, adjoining rooms and wall cavities. Even when the visible water is removed, the remaining moisture can sit under flooring or behind skirting boards.
- Isolate power and water if safe.
- Keep people away from electrical areas.
- Start extraction and drying quickly.
- Request moisture readings where walls or flooring may be affected.
When to call a water damage specialist
Call for support when water has reached carpet, timber flooring, walls, ceilings, cabinetry, commercial areas or electrical zones. Moisture can remain hidden after surface cleanup, especially in apartments, strata buildings, offices and commercial properties.
