Homeowners who have experienced property damage caused by a burst pipe know that it is no small matter. A burst pipe can cause flooding which could lead to extensive water damage and even mold or mildew growth. These are serious repercussions that can damage the structural integrity of your home or place of business and threaten the health and well-being of residents - even making the building un-sellable. Usually, significant flooding can damage your possessions and furniture as well, sometimes causing irreversible repair to priceless family valuables or favorite belongings.

Whether your carpet, walls, furniture, treasured belongings, or even the actual structural integrity of your home took the hit, there is nothing insignificant about water damage. It can compromise the market value of your home and even put the health and safety of your family at risk by inciting mold and mildew growth. Whether the damage was caused by a pipe burst or a hurricane or other natural disaster, the required repairs can be expensive. Sometimes insurance carriers are hesitant to cover construction work required to prevent or remove mold growth in a home affected by water damage.
