Text Box: You have the obligation, to your insurance company, to take immediate action, to protect your property from further damage. 
Your insurance company has the obligation to pay you the costs for emergency water damage cleanup when this provision is included in your insurance policy.

The standard homeowner insurance policy generally contains the same provisions throughout the United States. You have certain rights and you have certain obligations imposed by your insurance company. When your home is flooded the water must be removed and dried, immediately, to prevent further damage. It is your obligation, to your insurance company, to make emergency repairs to minimize further damage.
Mold growth occurs within 24 to 48 hours. Due to the increased humidity, caused by a flooded home, wood furniture, couches, books, pictures, plaster, and the entire wood structure of the house absorbs excessive water moisture. Wet hardwood floors can buckle in less than a few hours. Hardwood floors can even buckle, from excessive humidity, when water is underneath a house and the water is not touching the floor. It is your obligation, as required by your insurance policy, to remove and dry the water immediately, to minimize further deterioration of your home and personal property.
Sewer waste, from a toilet, can harbor over 100 disease causing viruses. The standard guideline, when sewer waste has leaked in a building, is to remove, immediately, children under 2, elderly persons, and any persons with compromised immune systems and allergies, until the building has been decontaminated and deemed safe for occupancy.
Removing water, from a flooded building, is more complicated than just vacuuming, mopping, and setting up fans and dehumidifiers. If the house is not dried properly, secondary damage will occur and you will have a much more serious problem later. Water, that is not properly removed, from deep inside walls and under the floor, will continue to spawn mold, swelling, and other types of damage for several days or months. When fans and dehumidifiers are used the amount of forced evaporation and air removed must be balanced so that the evaporated water does not seep into portions of your house and into personal items that were not affected by the flood. 
You may make repairs, without authorization from your insurance company, and be fully compensated for the cost of emergency steps, to safeguard your property from further damage after a loss, especially when your home is flooded. You are entitled to employ, your own licensed water restoration firm, first, to protect your property, without notifying your insurance company. You may hire a firm to perform emergency services and call your insurance company afterward. You are not obligated to hire a firm recommended by your insurance company.  You are not required to accept the lowest bidder. However, rates should correspond to prevailing standards in your area for work of good quality.
When the emergency removal of water or repair is covered, by your insurance company, you will be paid even when you do not notify your insurance company first. When your policy does not cover the emergency work you will be obligated to pay your contractor for the services provided.
