Water Damage and Home Safety Tips for El Dorado Hills Residents

Water Damage and Home Safety

When you suffer from water damage in a home, it is important to note the steps that could have led to its prevention. Plumbing, storm, or flood issues can be extremely costly and typically require immediate action to remediate.

Leaking Supply Line

Washing machines have supply lines that face constant pressure. The problem lies in whether or not the washing machine contains supply lines composed of PVC or rubber. These can easily rupture and wear out, which can result in an entire laundry room flooding in the span of a couple of minutes if you fail to shut off the source of water in time.

Air Conditioning Condensation

AC units are designed to produce condensation in which moisture drips from the evaporator coil into a pan and is ejected from a property via a drain line. This system works until damage is taken by the pan or the drain line becomes clogged with dirt or dust. When water cannot escape, it will leak out from your AC straight into the house. All that unwanted water can damage the walls, floors, and weaken the insulation.

Blocked Drains

Any drain, regardless of whether it is a kitchen sink, bathtub, or bathroom floor, can clog for a variety of reasons. Grease buildup, dirt, hair, toiletries, and other foreign objects have the potential to obstruct the pipe and prevent proper drainage. When not taken care of on a routine basis, they can easily back up, resulting in water damage and flooding.
