Water & Flood Damage
Most 70% of property damage involves water – through broken pipes, natural flooding, sewer backups or after a fire. Water can cause extensive damage and pose a serious threat to building structures, interior furnishings, important documents and prized belongings. Additionally, mould can begin growing within 48 hours, and mould growth and related bacteria and allergens can result in serious long-term health issues.
