Be aware of the signs of water damage!

Water damage can happen quickly and leave a lasting impact on your home or business. It is important to pay attention to the signs of water damage and regularly check your water sources so that you notice any issues before they get worse. 

Signs to watch out for with water damage: 

* Damp, moldy or musty smell (These types of smells can be a large indicator that there is water damage in your home or business. If you notice these types of smells, it's important to act quickly to avoid further damages) 

* Your utility bill has a sudden increase. This could be an indication that there is a leak. 

* You notice a puddle or a pool of water that comes back after you have cleaned it. 

*Crackling or flaking of paint on ceilings or walls
