Water damage is one of the most common home insurance claims in the country, if not the most common one simply because of the amount of water in our homes on a daily basis. Whether it is in the kitchen, bathroom, or the laundry room, water is always spilling and creating humidity. But, water from outside the home often poses the most threat to the home's integrity, especially when it comes from severe thunderstorms and hurricanes.

Mold is definitely something that you do not want growing inside your home, but if water is not dried up within 24 to 48 hours, you will have the beginning of a mold problem. Most molds aren't toxic, but even the ones that aren't can cause the development or aggravation of allergies and respiratory problems such as emphysema and asthma. Many people who discover mold in their homes will make an attempt to kill the mold instead of calling a professional to deal with it, but in cases of heavy infestation, this is a mistake. Mold must be removed from a home to prevent it from aggravating allergies and respiratory problems, since even dead mold can still affect the homeowner and their family.

Restoring the documents in your home after your home has been flooded used to be so expensive that no one could afford to do it; the cost was too great and the documents not important enough to bother with it. This is no longer the case; document drying has become more affordable for the average homeowner and the restoration of photographs and important legal papers can be more easily done.
