Charlotte property questions
Separate the building leak from the public-system problem.
Charlotte Water distinguishes leaks inside a building or on its private supply line from public utility issues. Give the location of the water when reporting a problem. For a condo or apartment, also tell the property manager which unit and level are affected; the utility report does not arrange interior restoration.

Check flood information for your address
Use Charlotte-Mecklenburg flood maps with the exact address. The Charlotte map above is a locality reference; use official alerts and mapping for hazard information. Follow local safety directions and do not cross floodwater to reach the property.
What to document for your insurance conversation
Record the Charlotte service address, the time damage was noticed and what you saw. Keep safely taken photos, estimates and receipts together. Ask your insurer about your policy using the North Carolina insurance guidance as a starting point; a restoration quote does not decide coverage.
