Water Damage: What To Look Out For
Water damage can occur for a number of reasons, whether that be plumbing failures or flooding. If left untreated, it can lead to a number of risks for your Bath property, including:
For your window, wall and door water damage repair needs, Barrett’s Decorating is here to help.
The timeline depends on the extent of the damage. Initial water extraction may take a few hours, but complete drying, repair, and restoration can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks depending on the severity of the damage.
The cost varies based on the size and type of damage, the area affected, and the necessary repairs. Minor damage might cost a few hundred dollars, while extensive restoration could run into thousands of pounds. Most companies provide a free estimate.
It depends on your insurance policy and the cause of the water damage. Most policies cover sudden and accidental damage (like a burst pipe) but may not cover damage from neglected maintenance or flooding (without flood insurance). It’s important to check with your insurer.
Common signs include peeling paint, warped or sagging floors, a musty smell, water stains on walls or ceilings, and mold growth. If you notice any of these, you should contact a professional for an inspection.
For minor leaks or spills, you can handle clean-up. However, for extensive damage, professional services are recommended, especially if contaminated water (like sewage) or mold is involved.
