Manager Playbook: When a Plumbing Incident Starts

1. Protect customers/staff: cone/tape the area, wet-floor signs, keep power away from water.

2. Shut off water at the fixture or zone valve; for sewage, restrict access immediately.

3. Document time, source, and quick photos for corporate/health-dept notes.

4. Call (949) 209-5206 to dispatch White Glove Plumbing and share access/after-hours rules.

5. If food areas are affected, segregate product per your food-safety SOP until cleared.

   
   

Why Fast Action Matters

• Mold can begin within 24–48 hours—early drying reduces demo and odor complaints.

• Typical water losses average around $14,000—fast mitigation limits direct cost and downtime.

• Events are common (repeat drain/grease issues)—having a vendor and store-level playbook keeps doors open.

For operations: Rapid stop-loss + documentation = fewer closures, cleaner inspections, and better customer experience.
