Cold weather or aging plumbing can cause pipes to freeze and burst, resulting in substantial water damage. Regular inspections and pipe insulation can help prevent this common issue.
Roof leaks are a major source of water damage, often going unnoticed until significant damage occurs. Missing shingles, worn-out flashing, and clogged gutters can all contribute to leaks.
Washing machines, dishwashers, and water heaters are prone to malfunctions. Leaking hoses, cracked seals, and mechanical failures can lead to serious water damage if not regularly maintained.
Excessive rainfall or storms can overwhelm drainage systems, causing water to flood basements or lower levels. Flooding can cause significant structural and electrical damage, making timely cleanup crucial.
Prepare for the unexpected with a disaster response plan tailored to your property’s specific needs. We’ll help you assess potential risks and put in place protocols to ensure you’re ready to act swiftly when needed.

Restoring your property after a disaster is a complex process, but we’ve simplified it into five clear steps to ensure you know what to expect every step of the way. Our proven method is designed to minimize stress and maximize efficiency.
Homeowners and business insurance policies typically cover water damage resulting from sudden and accidental events, such as burst pipes or leaking appliances. However, damage from flooding or slow, ongoing leaks is often not covered as flood damage usually requires separate flood insurance. It’s important to review your policy and consult your insurance agent for the specifics.
If you’re unsure about your coverage, the Fortivo Property Services team can guide both homeowners and business owners through the claims process, helping you understand your options and ensuring you receive the support and assistance you need.
Our team of experts is available 24/7 to assess the damage, mitigate further risks, and begin the restoration process. Don’t wait—reach out now to schedule your free inspection and let us get to work on bringing your property back to life. Call us today to see how we can help!
Dealing with water damage can be overwhelming, but there are steps you can take to minimize further damage and make the restoration process smoother. Follow these essential tips while waiting for our restoration team to arrive.
If the water damage is caused by a leak or broken pipe, it’s crucial to stop the water flow as quickly as possible. Locate your main water shutoff valve and turn it off to prevent more water from entering your property.
Water and electricity don’t mix. If the water is near any electrical outlets, appliances, or wiring, turn off the electricity to avoid electrocution risks. If you’re unsure about how to do this safely, avoid the area and wait for professional help.
If it’s safe to do so, begin removing standing water using towels, buckets, or a wet/dry vacuum. The quicker you remove water, the less damage will occur. However, don’t attempt to handle extensive flooding on your own—wait for our experts to safely extract the water.
If the water hasn’t reached all areas of your home or business, move furniture, electronics, and valuables to higher ground. Use plastic sheeting or aluminum foil to protect legs of wooden furniture from direct contact with water.
If the weather permits, open windows and doors to improve air circulation. This can help reduce humidity in the affected areas and speed up the drying process. Avoid turning on fans or HVAC systems until our team arrives, as this could push moisture into other areas.
Document the damage by taking photos of the affected areas, including walls, flooring, and any personal belongings. This can help when filing your insurance claim and provide valuable information for our team to assess the situation.
