What We Purchase

Real Causes of Water Damage We Buy

Water damage rarely has a single cause. Here's what we evaluate most often across Edmonton homes.

House with burst or frozen pipes we buy in Edmonton

Burst or Frozen Pipes

Alberta's hard winters routinely burst pipes in unheated or poorly insulated areas, a common and costly cause of sudden water damage.

House with plumbing failure water damage we buy in Edmonton

Plumbing Failures

Worn fittings, corroded pipes, or failed shutoff valves can leak for weeks before ever being discovered.

House with appliance leak water damage we buy in Edmonton

Appliance Leaks

Dishwashers, washing machines, and water heaters are common sources of slow, hidden leaks that add up over time.

House with roof leak water damage we buy in Edmonton

Roof or Window Leaks

Water intrusion from a failed roof seal or window flashing often causes damage well before it's visible inside.

House with sump pump failure we buy in Edmonton

Sump Pump Failure

A sump pump can fail from a burned-out motor, a power outage, or simple age, allowing groundwater to back up into the basement.

House with sewer backup water damage we buy in Edmonton

Sewer Backup

A blocked or failed sewer line can send wastewater back into the home, among the most serious water damage situations.

A Balanced Look

Understanding Your Options After Water Damage

Selling as-is is one path, not the only one. Here's an honest look at what each option actually involves.

The Real Impact of Water Damage

Water damage from burst pipes, appliance leaks, roof leaks, or sewer backups affects more than what's immediately visible. Beyond the obvious signs, moisture can lead to hidden mold growth, weakened subflooring, and electrical hazards behind walls. Insurance doesn't always cover the full cost of repairs, and professional restoration can take weeks or months, often while the home is difficult or impossible to live in comfortably.

Your Options After Water Damage

Sell As-Is to Us

  • No drying or restoration required first
  • A written cash offer within 48 hours
  • Closing on your own schedule, up to 120 days if needed

Traditional Restoration and Sale

  • Full restoration, often weeks to months
  • Coordinating contractors and insurance adjusters
  • Temporary housing costs while repairs are underway

Benefits of Selling a Water Damaged Home As-Is

  • Avoid months of restoration work and contractor coordination
  • No obligation to complete repairs before selling
  • Receive a written cash offer within 48 hours
  • Move forward on your own timeline, not a restoration company's
Important: If you have an active insurance claim, we can work with your timeline. We recommend confirming with your insurance provider how a sale affects your specific claim before proceeding.

Common Questions

Selling a Water Damaged House, Answered

Process-specific answers. For general guidance on water-damaged property sales, see our full guide linked below.

Do I need to dry out or remediate water damage before you'll make an offer?

No, we evaluate and purchase your property with the water damage exactly as it currently stands. Drying, remediation, or repair cost is factored directly into your cash offer rather than being something you handle first. This applies whether the damage is fresh or has been sitting for some time. We are not able to complete drying or remediation on your behalf before purchase. Send photos or schedule a walkthrough and we will confirm your offer as-is.

Do I need a plumber's report or water damage assessment first?

No, a formal plumber's report or professional assessment is not required to request an offer. Our own evaluation, using photos, video, or a walkthrough, is sufficient to determine your cash offer within 48 hours. If you already have a report from a plumber or restoration company, sharing it can help confirm the offer faster. We are not able to skip evaluating the property entirely. Contact us with whatever information you already have.

What if my water damage led to mold growth?

Mold growth resulting from water damage does not prevent us from making an offer. We factor the extent of the mold, alongside the original water damage, into a single evaluation of the property's current condition. We are not a mold remediation specialist and cannot certify air quality ourselves. Send photos of both the water damage and any visible mold so we can account for the full picture.

How does the extent of water damage affect my cash offer?

Your offer reflects the property's current condition, the specific cause of the water damage, and the realistic cost to repair it, based on real comparable sales in your Edmonton neighborhood. A single-room leak generally affects the offer less than widespread flooring or structural water damage, but neither disqualifies the property. Send photos of the affected areas and we will walk you through exactly how it factored into your offer.

Can you buy a house with an active or recent sewer backup?

Yes, a sewer backup, whether recent or already cleaned up, does not disqualify a property from an offer. We evaluate the extent of the damage and any lingering issues as part of our assessment. We are not able to perform sewer line repairs or cleanup on your behalf. Contact us with details about the backup so we can confirm next steps.

Do you buy houses with water damage specifically in the basement?

Yes, basement water damage, from a sump pump failure, foundation seepage, or a burst pipe, is one of the most common situations we evaluate. The condition of the rest of the property is factored in alongside the basement damage. We are not able to purchase only the affected area separately. Contact us with details about which areas are affected.

How is selling a water damaged house different from listing it?

Listing a water damaged property typically requires disclosure, and many buyers or their lenders require repairs and a clean inspection before financing is approved, often extending the timeline to 30 to 90 or more days. Selling directly to us skips those requirements entirely, we buy as-is and pay cash, with closing in about 14 days on average. Compare both paths directly using your own numbers before deciding.

Will I need to disclose the water damage if I sell my house to you?

Selling directly to us does not carry the same buyer-facing disclosure process involved in a traditional listing, since there is no public marketing or open house involved. We simply ask that you describe the water damage accurately during evaluation so your offer reflects reality. Read our full guide on selling a water damaged house for more context.

What if my water damage is from a burst pipe over the winter?

Winter burst pipes are one of the most common water damage situations we see in Edmonton, and they do not affect your eligibility for an offer. We evaluate the resulting damage the same way regardless of the season it occurred in. We are not a plumber and cannot make emergency repairs before purchasing. Contact us with details about when and where the pipe burst.

How fast can I actually close on a water damaged property?

Most closings on water damaged properties complete in about 14 days on average, the same typical timeline as any other property we purchase. Some sellers close sooner, others extend the timeline up to 120 days when more time is needed. Let us know your ideal timeline and we will build the closing date around it.

Do you buy properties with other types of damage too, like fire or structural issues?

Yes, we purchase houses with any type of damage, including fire, flood, and structural or foundation damage, in addition to water damage. Each type is evaluated on its own terms. See our full overview of the damaged houses we buy in Edmonton for details on every damage type we purchase.

Where can I read more about selling a water damaged house in Edmonton?

Our full guide on selling a water damaged house in Edmonton covers the causes of water damage, insurance considerations, and your general options, without any sales pitch attached. It's a good starting point if you're still deciding what to do. Contact us directly once you're ready for a specific cash offer.

What's the difference between water damage and flood damage?

Water damage typically refers to a source inside the home, such as a burst pipe, plumbing failure, appliance leak, or sewer backup. Flood damage refers to water entering the home from outside, such as overland flooding, spring snowmelt, or river valley proximity. We buy homes with either type. If flooding from outside better describes your situation, see our dedicated guide to selling a flood damaged house.

Whatever caused the water damage, we will look at it honestly.
