• Doing nothing when water damage occurs can be disastrous. Mold, mildew and overall damage to structural integrity can occur. In addition, a homeowner that delays in getting a water damage taken care of can be denied a claim if they decide to repair the problem at a later time, because often insurance companies will consider this owner neglect. It is best to take care of the problem immediately to avoid further complications.
