Water Damage Tip
9/3/2019 (Permalink)
Did you know by waiting too long before you react to a water loss can put a big strain on your budget? You can mistakenly cause a minor water damage to go from a simple job and covered loss, to large non salvage-demolition job. By delaying water mitigation, you can also compromise your coverage. Most insurance policies say it is the insured's responsibility to mitigate.
If you have a minor water leak, chances are we can come in and dry everything in-place. By waiting, after 48 hours it is more likely that we will have to remove baseboards at a minimum and many floor coverings may not be salvageable at the point.
After waiting several days of not mitigating, chances are, we are going to need to remove all wet porous materials like drywall. This could impact cabinets and countertops or tiled walls and most floor coverings at this point are non-salvageable.
