Plumbing Damage
The water you see is only 20% of the loss.
Did anyone trace the Path of Migration through your walls?
A burst pipe or slow supply-line leak doesn’t stop at the floor. Water wicks up drywall, soaks baseboards, migrates through wall cavities, and saturates subflooring. The carrier’s adjuster documents what’s visible – and ignores the 80% you can’t see.
- Carrier pays to dry the floor, ignores wall saturation
- Hidden rot develops over weeks inside framing
- Mold appears – filed as a separate “new” claim
- Denial: “pre-existing condition” or “wear and tear”
We trace every inch of the Path of Migration.
Our forensic moisture sweeps use thermal imaging to map hidden saturation behind drywall, under baseboards, and through subflooring. We document the full scope before the carrier can argue it doesn’t exist.
- Thermal imaging + moisture mapping of all affected areas
- Full Path of Migration documentation from source to saturation
- Property Integrity Report with line-item scope of loss
- Direct carrier negotiation until full remediation is covered
