Common Problems with Water Damage

Water damage comes in clear, grey, and black, which indicates the level of cleanliness of the water that did the damage. Each requires a specific type of cleanup to ensure your home remains habitable for years to come.

Common Water Damage Sources:

Broken appliance hoses
Damage to your home's exterior
Appliance overflows
Leaking pipes
Ground seepage
Flooding
Blocked drains
Sprinkler system malfunctions
Severe weather

While some of these risks can be minimized with proper maintenance, most happen without warning. You can do everything right and still experience a dishwasher overflow, for example. This fact is what makes water damage tricky with insurance companies. Water damage is also one of the types of property damage that could fall under one of a few insurance policies. That means you must ascertain which insurance company you need to submit a claim to, usually between flood and homeowners. Having an insurance expert on your side ensures the proper claim is filed.

Insurance Company Tricks for Water Damage

The goal of an insurance company is to pay out as little as possible while still giving you enough to keep you as a customer. They have many tactics to accomplish this goal, and you may need a skilled set of eyes to spot the challenging ones. As mentioned, the first tactic an insurance company mat try is contesting the source of the water leak. In the case of a flood, the claim must go to flood insurance. Unfortunately, many events prevent definitive identification, which usually works in favor of the insurance company. Insurers sometimes also attempt to use the fine print of your insurance policy, even if something is not actually in the fine print. Reading through your policy is a difficult task unless you have experience with legal contracts.

Once you find the appropriate clauses, you may need to argue with multiple customer service team members to get to the conclusion you want. Another tactic insurance companies use is questioning the value. The insurer may question the value of your belongings that need replacement, or they may challenge the bill for repairs. This step delays the repair and replacement processes and stresses you while locating the actual value while experiencing a disaster. While unlikely, the insurance company may also flout out deny the claim. Doing so adds many steps to your process and is frustrating. Insurance companies tend to hold this as a last resort for water damage as it can cause you to change companies when it's convenient. Insurance companies may also employ other tricks to slow down your claim, frustrate you, and delay your payout. These tactics help the company retain money. However, with an experienced eye, you can avoid much of the frustration.
