Every Minute Counts in a Water Emergency
Water is one of the most damaging forces a structure can face—posing serious risks to buildings, belongings, and occupants alike. The threat escalates with contamination or when mitigation is delayed.
Whether caused by natural disasters, burst pipes, or overflowing fixtures, water can spread rapidly—damaging materials, electrical systems, and structural components within minutes. Just one fire sprinkler can release up to 50 gallons per minute, and broken pipes often release even more, impacting multiple floors before the source is shut off.
At BlueRed Restoration, we know that every second counts. Our team is on call 24/7, and our dispatch specialists are trained to mobilize the right technicians and equipment without delay. Each of our locations is equipped with high-performance drying systems and tools, ensuring we’re always ready for immediate deployment.
Our crews undergo routine training to stay sharp on safety practices and equipment handling. From the initial water extraction through final repair touches, BlueRed manages the full restoration process with precision, urgency, and care.
🧾 Will Insurance Cover Water Damage? Here's What to Know
✅ What’s Typically Covered:
- Sudden and Accidental Events: Burst pipes, appliance leaks, and overflows are usually covered by standard property insurance.
- Storm Damage: If water enters due to roof leaks or wind-driven rain during a storm, many policies will cover the repairs.
- Emergency Cleanup Services: Immediate water extraction, drying equipment, and moisture mitigation may be reimbursed.
🚫 What’s Often Excluded:
- Flooding from Outside Sources: Rising groundwater, heavy rain, or river overflow generally requires separate flood insurance.
- Neglect or Deferred Maintenance: Damage caused by long-term leaks, mold, or ignored repairs may be denied.
- Sump Pump Failures: Not all policies cover backups—check if you have an endorsement for water backup coverage.
📋 What You Should Do:
- Document Everything: Photos, videos, and a list of damaged items go a long way in claim approval.
- Act Fast: Insurance companies expect quick action to prevent further damage—calling BlueRed Restoration 24/7 makes a difference.
- Review Your Policy: Knowing your coverage limits, deductibles, and exclusions ahead of time can save stress during an emergency.
Proper execution of the water damage restoration process is essential to prevent mold growth and long-term structural issues.
