Common Causes of Water Damage in Baltimore

Camden, Jonestown, Inner Harbor, the downtown core, and many other Baltimore neighborhoods lie in a 100-year floodplain. Heavy rain, hurricanes, and storm surges can cause flash floods in highly developed and paved urban areas. When floods occur, water can overwhelm storm drain lines, backup sewer systems, and flood basements. 

In addition to floods, other reasons you may need water removal in Baltimore include the following causes of water damage

  • Dishwashers, washing machines, or other appliances with loose or broken water connections
  • Water heater failure or leaks
  • Clogged or backed-up drains, toilets, or sinks
  • Mold growth due to leaking water supply pipes or cracks in foundations, walls, or roofs
  • Burst pipes
  • Sewage backups

Roto-Rooter plumbers provide fast, efficient, and professional water damage restoration services in Baltimore.
