There’s nothing more important than cutting down the power supply of your house in case of water damage.

Once you are sure that there’s no electrical threat at your home then you should immediately start draining out the water from the house. If the water is less in quantity then mops, towels and buckets can be used to get rid of it, but if the water level is high then you should call in professional cleaners who will drain out the water from your house.
If the water level was less and you decide to clean the home yourself then after extracting the water you need to make sure that the every room of the house becomes dry completely. However, if you have opted for professional help then they’ll also dry out the home completely after water extraction is over.

So, you need to remove all such items which think can’t be used anymore and disposed them properly. If your electronic items also got affected due to water damage then take extra precaution while reusing them. Majority of electronic items are not safe to use after coming in contact with water.
