    If your Florida home was constructed before 1975, then there’s a good chance that it has cast iron pipes. These were a common home/building component back then, but if they are still in your house, then you may experience problems.

    Anyone who believes that their home has cast iron pipes and that these pipes have caused damage is encouraged to contact us. Your Insurance Attorney has represented many clients dealing with cast iron pipe insurance claims.

    CAST IRON PIPE CLAIMS

    Cast iron pipes were commonly used in sewage systems throughout the state for decades. Most of them were designed to have an approximate lifespan of 50 years. Many of these pipes are only lasting for about 20 years.

    One of the most common problems associated with cast iron pipes is backups. A backup in a sewage line is a big problem that must be addressed immediately. Unfortunately, insurance companies are reluctant to pay out for these claims.

    Other signs of problems with cast iron pipes include unpleasant smells, visible water damage on walls or ceilings, warping of wood floors, damaged floors, or water stains on carpets. Eroding cast iron pipes can also taint the home’s water supply which is a serious risk, requiring swift action.

    CAST IRON PIPE INSURANCE CLAIMS

    Several factors may contribute to the life of these pipes. An especially humid climate like Florida is responsible for much of this deterioration. Other factors that damage cast iron pipes include environmental toxins, acidic sewage, improper installation or construction taking place in the area.

    CAST IRON PIPE INSURANCE CLAIMS

    Cast iron pipe repairs can be expensive, complex, and time-consuming. It’s only natural for homeowners to expect that their insurance company will pay for those repairs.

    However, cast iron pipe claims are not always as straightforward as they should be. It’s not unusual for insurance companies to resist when they are presented with a claim. After all, their main reason for being in business is to turn a profit. This is why their adjusters and claims department tend to deny claims or make lowball settlement offers.
