It depends on the extent and type of water damage
Home cleanup
In some cases, it may be safe to stay in a home or building with water damage, but in other cases, it may not be safe.
If the water damage is caused by clean, uncontaminated water (such as from a burst pipe), and it's been cleaned up promptly and thoroughly, it may be safe to stay in the building.
However, if the water damage is caused by contaminated water (such as from a sewage backup), it's not safe to stay in the building until it has been properly cleaned and disinfected.
Additionally, if there is significant water damage that has caused structural damage or compromised the integrity of the building, it may not be safe to stay in the building until repairs have been made.
In any case, it's important to address water damage promptly and thoroughly to prevent potential hazards such as mold growth and structural damage. If you're unsure whether it's safe to stay in a home or building with water damage, it's best to consult with a professional water damage restoration company or a qualified building inspector to assess the situation and determine the appropriate course of action.
