Causes and Types of Water Damage

Many different factors can cause residential water damage. Sometimes there are steps homeowners can take to alleviate damage, such as proper disposal of paper goods within plumbing systems. However, water damage is often caused by factors beyond your control. Here are some of the most common types and causes of water damage that might occur on your residential property.

Heavy Rainfall, Storms, & Flooding
One of the most common causes of residential water damage is heavy rainfall in a short period and stormy weather. Heavy rainfall can quickly cause flooding, including flash floods that can be incredibly dangerous in residential areas. Older properties and properties located in low-lying areas are more prone to flooding. However, floodwater can affect homeowners anywhere, including the metro Chicago area. Waterproofing your home is one way to prevent or reduce the damage caused when heavy rainfall accumulates. Drainage systems can also be installed to help alleviate water damage. However, experts at APT Water Restoration might be needed when floodwaters take over your home. Contact us to eliminate contaminated floodwaters within your home quickly.

Sewage Backups
Sewage backups are another common type of water damage on residential properties. Backups can occur due to improper disposal of water goods within plumbing systems. That is why it's never wise to flush anything down the toilet other than toilet-safe tissues or wipes. Furthermore, grease and other heavy substances in your kitchen drain can clog pipes, leading to plumbing leaks and backups. Additionally, sewage backups are extremely hazardous, containing particles of human waste and other pollutants. Therefore, a sewage backup needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.

Plumbing Malfunctions & Appliance Leaks
Plumbing malfunctions and appliance leaks can also quickly cause extensive property damage. Burst pipes occur during the cold winter Chicago months after pipes freeze. Keeping water running and maintaining a safe internal temperature even when you are out of town can help alleviate the chances of your pipes bursting. Furthermore, old appliances that have not had annual inspections might be prone to leaks and other malfunctions that cause water damage.

Standing Water & Water Removal Services
When excess water accumulates in your home, you may be facing a serious standing water problem. Standing water poses numerous hazards since it can be much deeper than it looks. Always keep small children and pets away from areas of the home where standing water has accumulated. Remember, these waters are often contaminated, which presents further health and safety risks.














Our Water Damage Restoration Process

Our water damage restoration process is a detailed and comprehensive approach to eliminating all types and degrees of damage on your property. Our trained technicians begin by extracting excess moisture using industrial equipment. We continue by thoroughly drying out the area with industrial dryers, dehumidifiers, and fans.
