Usually if your washing machine floods it’s 90% of the time caused by a hose that leaks for some reason. Make sure your washing machine has a valve shutoff kit.
3. Clogged Drains
Sinks always get clogged by grease and hair…and if you have a kid who knows what they may be putting down drains? When drains get clogged they in a way break down and can cause back up. Having a toilet back up into the house is an awful experience so it’s extremely important to prevent this.
A great old trick my mother taught me was dawn dish soap, baking soda, followed by hot water…you’d be amazed at how quickly it unclogs a toilet.
4. Natural Disasters
Obviously, floods and storms happen on occasion. Anything that brings excess water will cause damage. The longer you let water sit the more damage will occur. It’s extremely important to get the water out and the area dry and ventilated. Make sure you have flood insurance in Long Beach, CA as well. If you live near beaches or any water it’s extremely important to have a natural disaster plan.
5. Structural Damage
You always have to inspect any areas where moisture can create mold. Everything from gutters to areas near your home that have water sitting near your foundation can damage concrete and cause your home to have structural damage.
The older the house the easier structural damage may occur. It entirely depends on water settlement and if a flood or storm caused damages.
Preventing water damage is always the goal to have. Once water damage happens you have a lot on your plate.
