Is water damage covered by my insurance policy?

Water damage insurance claims depend on a few different criteria. Ultimately, that’s a question you’ll have to clarify with your insurance company. However, we can tell you that the viability of water damage insurance claims depends primarily on what caused the damage (storm, burst pipe, plumbing malfunction, localized flood, sump pump failure, etc. ). Some insurance policies will outline scenarios that will NOT be covered without specific riders like flood insurance, or sump pump failure insurance. Contacting Restoration Pros as well as your insurance adjuster at the same time is a good idea, because Restoration Pros will help make sure that not only will the water extraction and dry out be covered, but the rebuild process that should follow. If the full scope of the claim isn’t outlined and agreed upon from the start, there may be issues down the line, and property owners may find themselves having to pay out of pocket to get the property completely back to normal.

How long does fire damage restoration take?

It’s never a quick fix, though we’ve gathered together a multi-discipline team of contractors and technicians to work in tandem to complete the work as soon as possible. From structural repairs to sand/soda-blasting to odor removal to contents cleaning, our fire damage restoration crew begin as soon as the project scope is determined, and we don’t stop until the job is done and both you and the insurance company are satisfied with the results.

What caused mold to grow in my house?

Anytime the moisture levels in your home are at 60% or higher, mold can grow. What’s frustrating for many property owners is that they don’t see a puddle on the floor or water dripping from the ceiling. When mold grows, the source of the moisture is usually hidden under floorboards or behind walls.

What does my insurance cover?

Insurance coverage is very situationally dependent. Each policy from each different company will have different levels and types of coverage. The best way to know if your damage is covered is to keep a copy of your policy on hand and call your agent directly with any questions you might have.

How long will it take to dry out my property?

That depends on the types of materials that were affected by water. Drywall, carpet, and hardwood floors will take longer to dry than other materials in the space. We use moisture meters throughout the process and in many different locations to gauge the moisture levels and will continue to adjust our fans and dehumidifiers to achieve an efficient but effective dry time. The bare minimum of three days to dry may only produce a surface dry, but can still leave behind moisture levels that create an ideal environment for mold to grow.

Does bleach kill mold?

For the majority of surfaces in your home, bleach won’t actually get rid of your mold problem. It’s the iceberg effect. Visible mold is usually a small percentage of the actual amount of mold growth. Bleach can’t kill mold on porous surfaces like wood, and while tile or fiberglass surfaces can be cleaned with bleach, often the mold has spread far deeper. The reason why mold remediation companies don’t recommend DIY cleanup isn’t because they want to make more money; they know, in their experience, that a mold problem is usually far more invasive than can be seen with the naked eye. Simply cleaning the surfaces can provide false assurances that you got rid of the mold, only to have it come back time and time again.

How long will the process take?

The length of time for proper restoration to occur is dependent on the type and size of the damage. A typical water damage mitigation project usually takes 5-7 days for drying and removal of any unsalvageable materials. Mold remediation can take anywhere from a few hours to several days depending on the extent of the damage. Fires cause the most extensive damage and can take weeks for restoration to be completed. Keep in mind, these are all estimates and they’re only for the restoration portion of the job. The rebuilding portion of the job, where everything is put back into place, has its own separate process and timeline.

What happens to my wet belongings?

If the water damage involves Category 1 water (clean and free of microbes and bacteria), many of your personal belongings can be salvaged. Category 2 water would include other water sources, including rainwater, that, while not containing biohazards or sewage, still pose health risks and the potential for destructive microbial growth and mold. One of our water damage restoration technicians will help you sort through the contents of the property to determine what can be safely dried, what can be restored by a textile/contents technician, and what can’t be saved or salvaged. We have off-site facilities in the area that specialize in restoring water-damaged contents. Your restoration team at Restoration Pros will document all of the contents leaving the property for restoration or disposal for your records and also for reimbursement from your insurance company.

How do I clean up soot?

A qualified restoration team is equipped with the proper equipment to remove soot and other particulates from the air and surfaces in your home. During the cleanup phase after a fire has taken place in your dwelling it is important to use specialized equipment such as an Air Filtration Device (AFD) with a HEPA filter. The use of a vacuum with a HEPA filter removes the fine particles that can often be inhaled, causing respiratory issues. The use of specialized cleaning methods employing the use of degreasers and other absorbent materials, that can minimize damage caused by soot on many of your porous surfaces. The proper cleanup of soot in your home is extremely important and should be conducted by an experienced professional.

Does homeowners insurance cover mold remediation?

Sometimes mold remediation is included if the cause of the mold was a covered peril like a burst hot water heater or water damage caused by firefighters extinguishing a fire in your house. Gradual water damage – like from a leaking pipe or hose – will often cause mold growth, but your insurance coverage will usually not cover that by claiming that it was caused by poor maintenance or neglect. If your insurance company denies your claim, you should request an inspection from a mold remediation company who can help you document the source of the mold.

Does homeowner's insurance cover water damage?

Most homeowner’s policies cover most water damages, but not all water damages are created equal. There can be a lot of exceptions to coverage depending on the intricacies of your policy. This is why it’s a good idea to be familiar with your policy and call your agent right away when damage occurs.
