Have the right tools to do the job is nearly as important as the knowledge itself. Don't be caught without the proper water damage supplies and equipment to ensure you are mold free. Using insufficient materials can lead to dangerous humidity levels, spawning mold and mildew in your own home!
The list below is not meant to be exhaustive. However, it is a relatively comprehensive list of water damage equipment that can be found at your local hardware store.

If you cannot find the exact materials above, you may try to substitute a different product for one listed above. However, you must be aware that the effectiveness of a water damage product you choose may not be up to par. It is also very likely that you may also need additional or different equipment than the ones listed above. |
