Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as burst pipes, appliance failures, or storm damage. However, coverage varies depending on the cause of the damage and your specific policy terms.
We work with all major insurance companies and handle direct billing in most cases, so you don’t need to pay upfront costs. Our team documents all damage thoroughly and provides detailed reports that insurance companies require.
We’ll also help you understand what’s covered and what isn’t, and work with your adjuster to ensure you get the maximum coverage available under your policy.
In Old Westbury, burst pipes most commonly occur during winter when temperatures drop below freezing. Water inside pipes expands when it freezes, creating pressure that can crack or completely rupture the pipe.
Older homes with aging plumbing systems are particularly vulnerable, especially pipes in unheated areas like basements, attics, or crawl spaces. Tree root intrusion is also common in our area due to mature landscaping around established properties.
Sometimes pipes burst due to high water pressure, corrosion, or shifting ground conditions. The key is addressing the problem immediately – a small crack can quickly become a major flood if not handled properly.
Preventing mold growth requires immediate action and thorough drying. We use industrial-grade dehumidifiers, air movers, and moisture meters to ensure all affected materials are completely dried.
Mold can begin growing within 24-48 hours in the right conditions, which is why our emergency response is so critical. We don’t just remove standing water – we extract moisture from walls, floors, and hidden areas where mold typically starts.
We also apply antimicrobial treatments when necessary and monitor humidity levels throughout the drying process. Our goal is to create an environment where mold simply cannot survive, protecting your health and your property value.

Next, turn off electricity to any affected areas to prevent electrical hazards. Move valuable items to higher ground if possible, but don’t risk your safety trying to save belongings.
