Common Causes of Water Damage
Flood Damage
Floods, whether from natural causes like flash floods or internal issues such as overflowing bathtubs and appliances, are a frequent source of water damage. These incidents require immediate attention to prevent extensive damage to your property.
Water Pipe Breaks
Broken, busted, or burst pipes can cause significant water damage. Factors such as age, improper installation, and freezing temperatures can lead to pipe failures. If you suspect a broken pipe, call us immediately for a free moisture inspection using our advanced thermal cameras.
Roof Leaks
Roof leaks often result from worn shingles, loose nails, or poorly sealed flashing around vents and chimneys. These leaks can travel along rafters, making them difficult to locate. Prompt attention is necessary to prevent extensive water damage.

Types of Water Damage
Clean Water
Originating from sources like burst pipes or rainwater, clean water is the easiest type of water damage to handle, as it contains minimal contaminants.
Gray Water
Slightly contaminated water from sources such as washing machines or toilet overflows. It poses a moderate health risk and requires careful handling.
Black Water
Highly contaminated water, often from sewage or natural disasters, containing harmful bacteria and chemicals. Professional handling is essential to safely restore affected areas.
Does Home Insurance Cover Water Damage?
Home insurance policies typically cover sudden and accidental water damage. However, coverage may not extend to certain situations, such as:
- Floods
- Water backups from sewers or drains
- Damage due to unresolved maintenance issues
It’s crucial to act promptly and avoid negligence to ensure your claim is valid. For detailed information on your coverage, consult your insurance provider or refer to the Insurance Information Institute.
