    Posting for a friend, not on Pinside. His house was flooded by Harvey. For those in the Houston area, his house is behind Barker reservoir. He was boated out when water started coming in the front and back doors. It could take weeks, if not months for the flood water to go down. Until then he can't get back in to see how high the water got. He has one pin and three vids. Any thoughts on what can be saved? I'm thinking the vids are toast, their boards are too low, if the water stayed below the bottom of the pin, it may be okay. I think the main concern other than the water is the mold. Everything will be sitting in water for a very long time.

    Thanks,
    Gary

    Depends on if there is current, things could get knocked over.

    If the water doesn't reach the cabinet of the pin, maybe just new legs. If water got to the cabinet, no telling.

    It isn't just water. You'll have sewage, chemicals, all kinds of nasties.
