Is Emergency Service work for water damage covered by Insurance?

Yes. If Emergency Service work is required, a separate (different from remediation and rebuilding) estimate is completed for the water removal and drying only. This would entail extracting the standing water from exposed flooring, extracting water from flooring coverings, and placing blowers in an attempt to save the floor covering from replacement. Additionally, dehumidifiers are placed in water concentrated areas to restore moisture parameters back to normal and impeding any future mold growth.
