Five things that can cause water damage in your home

Water damage can result in the loss of equipment and valuables. Here are the top five things that can cause residential water damage:

1. Natural disasters like hurricanes, flash floods, and severe storms can result in water damage through flooding.

2. Pipes and drains can cause water damage if cracks, bursts, and clogs occur. Moisture, bulging, and rusting are all signs that pipes may need to be replaced.

3. Build up of water on the roof can put strain on your house and lead to leakages.

4. Clogs in your gutters from leaves and branches can cause blockages and prevent water from being diverted the way it should.

5. Appliances like air conditioners and washing machines are also prone to leaks. Regularly check any equipment that uses water to ensure that it is working properly.
