Water Damage

Water damage is one of the most common and costly types of damage to occur in your home. If not dealt with quickly and correctly, it can cause more damage in the long run. Mold, fungus, bacteria, and dry rot can all be caused by untreated water damage. Some types of water can also contain dangerous pathogens, which can cause serious health risks to you and your family.

Common Causes of Water Damage

The occurrence of water damage is often unexpected and sudden. Some causes of water damage include broken pipes, frozen pipe leaks, sewage backup, or water coming inside the home from a damaged roof. Your insurance policy generally covers these instances, but if you’ve never filed a claim with your insurance company before, the process may be confusing at best. IZP Consulting is your advocate when dealing with insurance claims. We’ll work on your behalf to guarantee you get the best possible settlement to get your home back in order.

The First 24 Hours

The first 24 hours after you experience water damage are crucial to the outcome of your claim. It is important to begin proper emergency mitigation as soon as possible.

Turn off any water supply that could be causing the damage. Take picures of the affected areas and remove anything that could cause mold to grow. This could include removing carpets, baseboards, drywall, and cabinets. It is also important to document all damage to your property with pictures and videos.
