Extent of Flood Damage
Assessing the full impact of water damage
The full extent of damage from flooding can be difficult to assess as by its very nature water will penetrate through any gap. Floods can even cause significant structural damage when a property seems to have missed the runoff as a rising water table changes the soil properties underneath a structure.
- Roof damage from ponding water or overload
- Damage to interior finishes from water contact
- Foundation damage from changing soils
- Damage or warping of wood finishes and flooring
- Wood rot or damage to affected wood members
- Flooding related fires
- Contamination of soil or groundwater
We find you the facts to help move your investigation, litigation, or claim forward.
