Common Causes of Water Damage in Indianapolis

Indianapolis receives approximately 45 inches of rain annually—four inches more than Seattle. In the summer, severe thunderstorms regularly roll across Indiana, sometimes leading to flash floods and flooded basements. Tornadoes can also occur, bringing heavy rain and wind damage. The summer is often wet and humid, encouraging mold growth in areas with a steady water supply from leaking pipes. Roto-Rooter provides mold remediation in Indianapolis to combat the property damage and health risks associated with mold growth. 

Heavy snow, sleet, and rain are common in the winter, and the city occasionally experiences ice storms. Water damage from thawed snow and ice is possible, especially if drainage systems back up. 

In addition to weather events, other causes of water damage may impact Indianapolis homes and businesses, including:
