Don’t Come Home to Water Damage!

6/14/2019 (Permalink)

Take a few precautions before you go on vacation, and you may prevent a sudden flood in your home.

You’ve just returned from a relaxing summer vacation. What could be worse than opening your door and finding your home is flooded?

Unfortunately, this happens all too often: the second most common homeowner insurance claim is for water damage. Whether it’s from a ruptured washing machine hose, leaky supply line or burst pipe, the consequences can be devastating. And, if water has been present for more than 48 hours, you may also have mold damage.

To help avoid a water disaster while you’re away this summer:

• Test your sump pump and check for leaky pipes
• Check and replace old or damaged supply lines to your washing machine, dishwasher, water heater and refrigerator
• Turn off the water supply to your washing machine
• Clean your gutters and drain pipes
