What is considered water damage for home insurance? Here in Tyler, the short answer most folks don't learn until they're standing in a wet house is this: it usually comes down to whether the water showed up sudden and accidental, or slow over time. A pipe that bursts overnight is generally covered. A slow drip under the sink that's been going for months often gets called neglect. That line catches a lot of good people off guard, and I hate to see it. I'm Jordan Brush with Prime Cleaning and Restoration, and I want you to go in knowing the truth. Learn where you stand before your policy ever gets tested.
