What should I do about my water and sewer lines?

Sewage and Water

Check for sewage and water line damage. If you suspect sewage lines are damaged avoid using toilets and drains until a plumber can inspect them. If water pipes are damaged, contact the water company and avoid using any taps. You can use water from melting ice cubes for the time being or that bottled water you stored ahead of time.
