Cut Your Losses

What causes liquid damage...and how can you manage it?


Water leaks and burst pipes wreak enough havoc at home. Imagine how water damage can soak your business?

Water damage in business is rather common. Nearly half of all FM Global loss events are from escaped liquids resulting from incidents such as:

  • Leaky roofs
  • Domestic water line bursts and
  • Sewage backup

Escaped liquid often creeps undetected into facilities, ruining vital equipment and leading to mold. It can also cause delays in production—or even shut down your business—until costly and time-consuming cleanup and restoration are complete.

So, how can you prevent liquid damage and manage it if it does occur?
