Tips from the experts: This is what those affected do after flooding in their house

According to a report from www.butenunbinnen.de, many houses in Bremen-Borgfeld are under water and are suffering a variety of damage. An expert gives recommendations on what residents should do in this case.

Flooding of homes can cause not only superficial damage but also structural problems. The Bremen architect Heiko Dörre-Wendorff, an expert for damage to buildings, warns that flooded houses can develop stability problems, especially if the stable soil is washed away. He strongly recommends having the statics of the house checked by an expert to avoid consequential damage. In addition, the underground pipes and electrical system should be inspected by specialist companies before they are put back into operation.

The impact of the flood on the building damage and repairs market could be significant. Demand for plumbing contractors, electricians and other experts is expected to increase to repair flood damage. In addition, companies that specialize in drying buildings could also see increased demand.

Consumers face significant financial and time burdens as post-flood cleanup and repairs can be costly and time-consuming. There could also be a shortage of reputable appraisers and tradesmen, as demand for their services will increase rapidly.

It is important that those affected document all damage and repairs precisely in order to be able to apply for possible funding and to be able to prove damage to the insurance company. In addition, careful communication with the insurance company is advisable in order to be able to make claims.

Overall, the flooding of buildings in Bremen is expected to lead to increased demand for experts and tradesmen specializing in repairing flood damage, and residents will face significant challenges in repairs and communicating with insurance companies. The market for repairs and related services is likely to be heavily impacted in the region.

As www.butenunbinnen.de reports, residents of flooded apartments and houses should carefully document all damage and also document communication with the insurance company well. This could mean an increase in funding and insurance claims in the coming weeks and months.
