SERVPRO of Bemidji, Grand Rapids & Hibbing

One research firm found that one in fifty households in the United States will suffer from water damage that is serious enough for the homeowners to file an insurance claim. Damage that severe almost always require professional remediation. Insurance companies may even require professional, rather than do-it-yourself, approaches because homeowners do not have the training or the equipment to salvage as much of the structure or as many of the belongings as do professional restoration companies, such as SERVPRO of Bemidji, Grand Rapids & Hibbing.

Causes of Water Damage

One reason water damage is so common is there are so many ways things can go wrong. We could eliminate the possibility by getting rid of weather, plumbing, animals, or people, but that’s not practical.

There are ways to reduce the likelihood of water damage, and awareness of possible causes should help with risk reduction.

• Severe weather
• Keep gutters clear
• Check whether roof repairs are needed after tornadoes or other disasters
• Keep tree roots away from the house’s foundation
• Leaking pipes, including sewage
  • Home inspection before you buy
  • Be aware of higher-than-normal bills, strange stains, or musty odors – correcting the problem before a pipe bursts is expensive, but less so than dealing with the damage of burst pipe
  • Condensation from the Air Conditioner
  • Install a drain pan
• Appliance malfunctions
  • As appliances age, check that hoses and pumps are intact
  • Turn of appliances if you suspect a leak
• Blocked drains
  • Don’t pour grease down the drains
  • Clear pipes when the drains slow
• Overflowing tubs or showers
  • Keep the overflow drains clear
  • Don’t allow adolescents or college-age offspring in the house

Trivia Break

Most birds don’t have bladders to store urine, which is why they egest that white gunk all the darned time. It does help them stay lightweight, but it doesn’t do your porch furniture any favors.
