Water Damage While You’re on Vacation: What to Do Remotely

Water Damage Alert While You’re Away

It’s every homeowner’s nightmare: a notification from your water sensor, a call from a neighbor, or a security camera showing water where it shouldn’t be : and you’re hundreds or thousands of miles from home.

Immediate Remote Steps

  1. If you have a smart water shut-off (Flo, Phyn) : shut off water remotely via the app immediately
  2. Call a trusted neighbor to physically verify the situation and shut off water at the main valve if needed
  3. Call WrightWay at (941) 379-8669 : our team can access your property (with your authorization), shut off water if not already done, perform emergency extraction, and begin drying
  4. Call your insurance company to report the loss
  5. Do not rush home unsafely : professional restoration doesn’t require you to be present initially

What WrightWay Handles in Your Absence

We provide photo and video documentation of all damage, daily progress reports, and direct communication so you know exactly what’s happening. Many of our projects begin with the homeowner away : we secure the property and begin restoration immediately.

Sadly our home flooded and a friend recommended WrightWay to come and do an inspection to see what further work we might need done to ensure we do not have mold growth. The team was able to come out same day. They were so helpful, honest and detailed. Hopefully we never need them again but if we do have any other emergency needs I will 100% be using them again.

I called WrightWay for an estimate on a cleanup job. They came out the next day, gave me the estimate, and did the job the next day. They were prompt, professional, and did a great job on the cleanup. I would recommend this company to anyone. And I will use them again if I need to.
