What should I do right after a leak?
Stop the water source, remove standing water, and get air moving. For active flooding or a large area, call a water damage mitigation company first. Floor repair comes after the area is dry.
Will insurance cover water-damaged floors?
Many policies cover sudden leaks like a burst pipe, but not long-term seepage. Check your policy; the pro can provide photos and documentation for your claim.
Can water-damaged hardwood be saved?
Sometimes. Mild cupping can settle once the floor dries. Boards that are buckled, stained black, or soft usually need replacing.
