Common Causes of Commercial Water Damage

Leaking Roof: Responsible for about 15% of commercial water damage claims, it is very common for rainwater to seep through damaged areas in the roof, dripping or flowing into the building’s interior.

HVAC System Malfunctions: Leaky, frozen, clogged, or malfunctioning pipes can occur in HVAC systems that are not properly connected or regularly maintained.

Sprinkler System Malfunctions: Sprinkler systems can be accidentally triggered for a number of reasons including physical impacts, unintentional heat sources, or faulty sensors.

Damaged Pipes: Pipe leaks and bursts can lead to excessive flooding and extensive water damage if not mitigated immediately.

Plumbing Failures: Sewage backups, clogged drains, faulty fixtures, and burst pipes are just a few examples of plumbing failures that can be detrimental to your property.

Boilers: Unmaintained boilers can lead to leaks, overflow, flooding, or burst pipes.

Flooding: Severe weather conditions can lead to extreme flooding, significant damage, and disruption of business operations.

Preventing Water Damage

Schedule regular inspections and maintenance: Regularly inspect pipes, appliances, plumbing, roofing, and foundation to proactively identify and address potential water damage before it worsens.

Install water detection systems: Water detection sensors and automatic shut-off valves provide early warning and quick response. These devices can notify you when water is detected and automatically shut off the main water supply, minimizing the extent of the damage.

Seal cracks and gaps: Prevent small cracks and holes in the foundation from becoming big problems. Seal and repair minor issues to protect your business from further damage.

Shut off the main water supply: To minimize the risk of water damage while you’re away from your business, you may consider shutting off the main water supply. This simple action can prevent severe water damage like pipe bursts or leaks.
