Standing Water From Sinkholes
Is the standing water on my property an indicator of sinkhole development?
As a conscientious owner of a house or commercial building, you likely take regular care to maintain and look for any developing problems on your property. You fully understand the importance of maintenance to your property’s value. What, then, is your next step when the particularly troubling sign of standing water rears its ugly head? Though this may simply be a drainage issue on your property, it may also be the indicator of an expanding sinkhole in the ground below. Make sure to immediately notify your insurance company and then make contact with a Tampa sinkhole attorney who can help ensure that your rights under the law are protected.
We have all noticed standing water on our property or even in our basements at some point. Generally traceable to higher than average rain, drainage clogs, or pooling in a naturally-occurring area, standing water can also be a clear sign of sagging ground. Depressions in your yard, loosening dirt around trees and utility poles, and a sinking foundation can all point to underground sinkhole development. As water stands in these areas, you should be concerned about the further damage that may be unfolding. Do not delay in having your insurer provide a full and thorough inspection and in submitting a claim. Sinkhole repair work should begin as soon as possible.
