UNRAVELING WATER LOSS CLAIMS WITH PRECISION & INSIGHT

Experts in Water Loss Investigations

At Fire Cause Analysis (FCA), we ‘drop the F’ when investigating water loss claims.   Our expert team has built upon decades of experience in sprinkler system failure analysis, pipe failures, inclement weather events, and installation defects to determine causes of the water loss claims irrespective of the source. After a water loss event, FCA engineers will employ scientific principles to assess the involved systems to evaluate component failures, installation errors, maintenance/standards of care,  design issues, plumbing infrastructure, weather, and other potential sources of water intrusion. By delivering detailed analysis and expert opinions in our written reports, we help our clients make informed decisions whether claims involve coverage, liability, or recovery issues.
