Are you dealing with water issues and pesky leaks?
Well, you’re not the first.
Believe it or not, we’ve worked with a TON of homeowners who have water issues and leaks.
And fortunately, it’s not the end of the world. Still, the longer you take to fix the problem, the more water damage it’s going to do… so here are some recommendations for dealing with your water issues and leaks.
Contain The Water Damage — The first thing you want to do when you discover water is try to contain as much of the ongoing water damage as possible. Use buckets and towels to avoid further damage and replace them as needed.
Remove The Water — Try to remove water where it’s pooled up. The longer that water sits on a surface, the more damage it’s going to cause, so get rid of as much as you possibly can.
Check With Your Insurance — Give your insurance agent a call to determine if you’re covered for water damage. If you are, you can probably get insurance to pain for fixing any damages.
Assess The Root Problem — First things first, you need to figure out where the water is coming from, and what’s causing it. It could be faulty plumbing, a leaky roof, poor grading around your foundation, or a list of other possible causes. If you decide to keep your home, then you’ll need to fix the water issue. You can hire someone else to do this, do it yourself, or try and get insurance to pay for it. If this step is a problem for you though, then check out the final option.
