What Causes Flood Damage in Your Home?
Flooding can stem from a variety of sources, often impacting areas like ceilings, kitchens, walls, and basements due to the concentration of plumbing. Common culprits include:
- Plumbing Leaks: From a burst pipe to a persistent, unseen leak.
- Broken Water Heaters: Releasing significant volumes of water in a short time.
- Severe Weather: Heavy rainfall overwhelming drainage systems or causing roof leaks.
- Appliance Leaks: Dishwashers, washing machines, or refrigerators malfunctioning.
- Clogged Toilets or Drains: Leading to overflows and widespread water.
- Sump Pump Problems: Failures in your basement’s flood prevention system.
- Structural & Foundation Issues: Cracks that allow water to seep in.
No matter the cause, the key to minimizing damage and preventing costly repairs is immediate action.
