Common causes of water damage and their consequences

Request a quote

Water damage can be caused by a number of factors, often unforeseeable:

  • Water leaks: Water leaks are one of the most common causes of water damage. They can come from damaged pipes, faulty seals, malfunctioning appliances (dishwashers, washing machines, etc.) or even the roof.
  • Flooding: Flooding, whether caused by heavy rainfall, sewer backup or water infiltration, can result in considerable water damage.
  • Water main break: A water main break can quickly flood an entire room, or even an entire building, causing significant damage to structures and property.

The consequences of untreated water damage can be disastrous

  • Structural damage: Excessive humidity can lead to the degradation of building materials (wood, gypsum, etc.), mold growth and foundation deterioration.
  • Health problems: Moisture-produced molds can cause allergies, asthma and other respiratory problems.
  • Property loss: Material assets (furniture, electronics, etc.) can be irreversibly damaged by water and humidity.
  • Increased costs: Repair and restoration costs can be very high if the damage is not dealt with quickly.

When faced with water damage or flooding, it's essential to act quickly to limit damage and avoid future complications.
