Servpro - Faster To Any-Sized Disaster

Response time is very important. Most insurance companies in their policies state, that they do cover damage within 14 days of the initial water leak. Anything after 14 days is considered lack of maintenance and the owner's responsibility. We had two cases where one apartment has been left unattended for 9 months and mold has developed all the way to all the interior walls 6 feet tall. The initial leak would be covered but the rest was not. Another situation, very recently we went to the house where toilet tank cracked and leaked from Thanksgiving to Valentines Day and covered both floors, all the kitchen cabinets had mold growing on them within weeks. Similar to the previous scenario the insurance company will be very unlikely to cover the whole damage. That is why the response time is crucial, especially if it is a condo on higher floors.
