Common Causes of Water Damage in Fort Worth
We spend so much time in dry spaces that it’s easy to forget that water damage happens. Using water is a part of everyday life, but when water ends up in the wrong places, it quickly ruins materials and personal belongings. Common causes of water damage include:
- Storms, rain, and humidity.
- Firehoses and fire sprinklers used to douse flames.
- A sewage backup into the home or business.
- Plumbing problems (overflow from toilets, bathtubs, and sinks or leaking or bursting pipes).
- HVAC system problems.
- Leaky or broken dishwashers, water heaters, sump pumps, etc.
After three decades of serving the Fort Worth area, we have extensive experience with all the above scenarios and more. Having the best equipment and the best-trained staff available at all times allows us to swiftly tackle any water damage problem.
What do the Signs of Water Damage Look Like?
While some scenarios are obvious like a ceiling caving in or rising waters on the floor, other signs of water damage are understated. Below are other things to watch for around your home or business.
- Pools or puddles under out-of-the-way appliances like a water heater or around a basement sump pump.
- Walls and ceilings are discolored or spotty.
- The floor beneath your feet feels spongy or squeaks.
- Sounds of dripping water behind walls or the ceiling.
- Appearance or smell of mold and mildew

In all honesty, the longer you wait to address water damage, the more the situation will deteriorate. Rotting materials and mold growth are examples of the secondary damage you can expect from lingering water saturation.
Also to keep in mind is that secondary damage from the original water damage event jeopardizes your insurance claim. The coverage may be fully or partially declined if the property owner doesn’t act quickly.
