DOES Homeowners INSURANCE COVER CAST IRON PIPES?
Claim denials shouldn’t mean “end of discussion.” Find out if you have a case to file a cast-iron pipes lawsuit against your insurance company.
Insurance companies in Florida have consequently faced thousands of pipe lawsuits over water damage claims involving cast iron pipes. Property insurance companies have developed a number of complicated rules over the years to deal with plumbing losses. The result is often a mishmash of coverage provisions, limitations, and exclusions. Therefore, even if an insurance company says “No,” there is often a “Yes!” to be found if one knows where to look.
There are two common reasons: timeliness and apparent damage. It’s important to file your claim as soon as the water damage becomes visible, which usually means within the first 72 hours. Otherwise, insurance companies might deny on grounds that regular upkeep was not performed on the house.
The insurance company may send an inspector to your home to assess the damage. Remember that you can also call in your own experts for estimates, which may help if you need to take legal action.
If your insurance carrier has acted unfairly in resolving your water damage claim, contact the insurance lawyers at Williams Law, P.A. We know the tactics insurance companies use to avoid paying legitimate claims and take every step necessary to get you the full amount that is rightfully owed to you.
How Much DOes It cost to replace cast iron pipes?
Replacing your pipes can cost you thousands. The price depends on the size of the project, materials used, and labor. To add injury to insult, these pipes are often buried in the foundation slab or within walls, making it hard to visibly detect when our pipes are starting to fail and the water damage possibly happening.
Although removing all the leaky plumbing and putting in new pipes can cost the most, sometimes it’s more economical than waiting and potentially having disastrous water damage, too.
The truth is there are so many variables and factors that contribute to the deterioration of cast iron pipe. And while there’s no way to know when your pipe will go bad, there is no doubt that it will go bad.

I did not think I'd get lawyer to call back the same day in regards to questions about pipe lawsuit. Not only did they call me back, but I was able to remotely sign documents needed to start my case. Thank you, WLA.
