Water Damage Restoration Los Angeles
Flood Damage - Dangers & Solutions
When a substantial amount of standing water enters your property, it threatens the structural aspects of your property as well as your personal possessions, technology, critical documents, and so on. To make matters worse, if you do not act quickly, the damage will just worsen.
Refuse, feces, dead animals, soil, and other material are all present in floodwaters, leaving a foul muck on every surface of your house. You might not be able to see it, but moisture can accumulate behind your walls, where it can help grow hazardous mold. Additionally, walls and even materials like carpet can support microbial development.
Floodwaters can also easily happen to contain large and/or sharp objects that can cause severe injury upon impact. Excessive water that finds its way to your basement can pose a serious threat to your home’s foundation, potentially damaging it to the point of no return.
Can a flooded house be saved?
The amount of water, how long it stays inside the house, and the kind of water that flooded the house are just a few of the numerous factors that affect whether or not a flooded home may be saved. However, the majority of the time, the answer is that a flooded home can indeed be saved and preserved if the adequate amounts of effort and skill is put into the restoration work.
How much does flooding devalue a house?
You can expect the value of a flooded property to drop by around a fifth, especially if it has been flooded multiple times. It has been reported that homes can drop as much as 60% in value in some severe cases.
Is flood damage covered by homeowners insurance?
No, unfortunately not. You need a separate policy for flooding – flood insurance policy. Check out FEMA website for more information on flood insurance and National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
