MD Restoration has a 24-hour Call Center in Honolulu, Hawaii to answer your emergency calls with a live operator, 7-days a week, 365-days a year. Our response is island-wide, and we can be in most locations on Oahu within 30 minutes.

Honolulu Water Damage Safety Precautions:

MD Restoration is technically trained to properly respond to your loss in order to minimize damage and keep occupants and pets safe. Here are a few key elements to water damage safety and mitigation you can implement prior to us arriving at your residence or business:

  • Don’t panic. If you feel overwhelmed, leave the area and get some fresh air. You must stay calm and focused in order to remain safe.
  • Do NOT walk into standing water as it may be an electrical shock hazard.
  • Wet floors are slippery. Please use extreme caution when stepping from carpeted areas onto solid surfaces. Slip and fall injuries are the most common injuries sustained in water damaged areas.
  • Stop the water source. If it is a supply line, shut off the valve. If the valve is frozen, shut off the main supply to the house. If it is a sewage line backup, get a plumber immediately. Do NOT try to clean or remove raw sewage yourself.
  • Drain water out of the area if possible. Doing anything you can to stop the water from migrating or sitting in an area for an extended period of time will help minimize damage.
  • Remove high-value items from the area. We will be moving furniture and bringing equipment into your home and we do not want to put your valuables at risk.
  • Clear us a path to the affected area. We need at least a 2-3 foot wide pathway in order to get our equipment into the loss area. If you are in a high-rise building, we will also need access to your toilet in order to dump extracted water into the sanitary sewer system.
  • Ensure we have parking as close as possible to the entry.
