Water Damage Prevention

Common situations

Not every water loss can be prevented, but routine checks can reduce the chance that a small plumbing or drainage issue turns into widespread damage.

• Inspect supply lines and shutoff valves
• Watch for staining or recurring dampness
• Maintain gutters and drainage paths
• Address slow plumbing leaks promptly

Why the source and affected materials matter

The right cleanup approach depends on where the water came from, how long it was present, how far it traveled, and which building materials were affected. Standing water may need to be removed first, while retained moisture in walls, flooring, framing, or other materials may require drying and monitoring.
