What the response includes
An overflowing tub, sink, toilet, washing machine or other fixture can spread through flooring and into rooms below. Fast extraction helps limit how far the water travels.

Water removal for homes, condos, co-ops and apartments
Residential water damage is not one-size-fits-all. In a house, the response may center on a basement, utility room or several connected floors. In a condo or co-op, the work may also require coordination with building staff, access rules, neighboring units and common areas.
If water may have reached electrical equipment, outlets or a live panel, stay out of the affected area until it has been made safe.
