We respond to water damage emergencies 24 hours a day in Lake County.

Our local North Eugene and Northwest Lane County teams are leaders in water damage restoration services in Fox Lake. Each year there are over 14,000 water damage insurance claims made in the United States, and many of these claims are the result of a cracked hose or an appliance water supply line.

Here are some tips from the Insurance Information Institute to help you maintain your home appliances and indoor plumbing systems to minimize the chances of water damage:

• Inspect appliance hoses and faucets. Make it a practice every year to check hoses leading to water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines, and refrigerator ice makers. Immediately replace any hoses that have cracks or leaks and replace them all every five to seven years.
• When away on vacation, shut off the water supply to the washing machine. Never leave the house while the washer or dishwasher is running.
• Know the location of the main water shut-off valve in your home. A damaged hose or a burst pipe can send water racing into your home. Knowing how to locate and shut off the main water supply quickly will save stress, money, and time.
• Check plumbing and heating pipes. Look closely for cracks and leaks and have any necessary repairs made immediately.
