        "text": "The immediate priority is ensuring personal safety and preventing further water or structural intrusion. Turn off your main electrical breaker if water is entering near outlets or ceiling fixtures, and avoid walking through standing water. Take clear photos and videos of the damage, including buckled drywall, soaked flooring, or compromised ceilings, before touching anything. Once documentation is complete, contact a licensed contractor to secure the area and arrange an inspection. HH Remodeling can help evaluate interior structural framing, cut away saturated drywall, and protect the home from secondary deterioration while you coordinate with your insurer.",
