Flooding or "water damage" inside a home or business can occur from any type of water supply source (plumbing or nature) and is almost always accidental, random, or unexpected. However, no matter what the case may be, water losses will generally be covered through a property insurance policy (with a few exceptions based on individual policies and the issuing company).
Although flooding can be a very stressful situation, try not to panic. Also, DO NOT call your insurance company first! Some water damage situations can be resolved without having to file a insurance claim. Furthermore, it's always best to have a professional water damage expert assess the situation first to determine the source and extent of the loss while minimizing any further damage from occurring to your structure or belongings (click here for some do's and don'ts until help arrives). Once the damage has been stopped from spreading the option of filing a claim will be discussed. Should a claim be the best option, it is highly recommended to review your insurance policy first before filing the claim. This will determine for sure if your policy covers the loss or not. If an accurate conclusion can not be made from reviewing your policy, your next best option is to contact your insurance AGENT and NOT the claims department to obtain this information. The staff at Arizona's Restoration Experts has been dealing with water losses for years and is able to walk you through the entire claim filing process.
So, if you have been a victim of flooding or any type of water damage in your home or business call now. A certified water damage expert is standing by ready to assist you.
Repairing water damaged materials can result in major structural damage if not repaired right the first time by a professional water damage restoration contractor. Time is crucial when dealing with wet carpets, flooded basements, wood floors (or any other type of flooring), wet drywall, ceilings, contents, important documents, and any other items of importance damaged by water. These items must be dealt with as soon as possible, as time becomes the enemy when left unattended. Wet materials can start to grow mold in just 24 hours after water intrusion.
Water extraction, or removing the excess water, is generally the first step when repairing water damage. Water extraction is typically followed by structural drying and/or drying contents and any other materials that were affected by the water. This process normally takes between 2-5 days and can be achieved in many ways. Dehumidification and air movement are the two methods used most to mitigate a water loss.
