What must the restorer do after addressing safety concerns and stopping the water source?

Begin documentation of damages
Conduct an evaluation of water migration
Prepare an incident report
Schedule a follow-up inspection

The correct answer is: Conduct an evaluation of water migration

After addressing safety concerns and stopping the water source, the logical next step for the restorer is to conduct an evaluation of water migration. This crucial process involves assessing how far the water has spread and identifying the affected areas within the structure. By understanding the extent of the water damage, restorers can develop an effective containment strategy and determine the appropriate drying methods and equipment needed for restoration. This evaluation also plays a key role in formulating a comprehensive restoration plan tailored to the specific conditions encountered. While documentation of damages, preparing incident reports, and scheduling follow-up inspections are all important aspects of water damage restoration, they typically follow the evaluation stage. Conducting an evaluation of water migration ensures that restorers have a clear awareness of the situation before moving on to the subsequent steps in the restoration process.
