  pressure or freezing temperatures to cause pipes

  may go unnoticed within the walls of your home or

  leak.

  water damage to cabinetry and cause warped wood
  or mold growth.
• Refrigerators may have a clogged pipe or leaking
  defrost pan that must be addressed. Likewise,
  washing machines and HVAC units can become worn
  with time and begin to leak unless they're
  regularly maintained.

  it, there's very likely water where you cannot .

CLOGGED GUTTERS

• Bathroom and sink drains can become quickly
  clogged with dirt, grease, hair and other
  substances. Pipes can break down, and structural
  damage is common. If drain clogs aren't cleared,
  problems like disease, sickness and aggravated
  health conditions could occur.
• Gutters are meant to direct water faraway
  from your home during a severe storm.
• A clogged gutter can cause water to overflow and
  slowly seep into your property through roof
  leaks, damaged siding, or a damaged foundation.

  gutters are freed from any debris.

  leaves, twigs, seed pods, and other blockage from

SEWAGE BACKUPS

• Sewer backups are either caused by brutal storms
  or tree roots blocking your home's pipes.
• Both of those instances can cause catastrophic
  water overflow, especially if you are not ready
  to act fast.
• To guard against the danger of tree roots
  blocking your pipes, have a sewer expert clean
  out your sewer main every other year.
• While you cannot combat a storm, we recommend
  contacting your insurance broker to debate which
  homeowner policy can protect you against water
  damage caused by sewer backups.
