Local risks: Little Rock and Pulaski County

Local conditions in Little Rock follow the broader pattern across Arkansas. Arkansas sits in a corridor that sees heavy spring rain, river flooding along the Arkansas and Mississippi valleys and frequent tornado outbreaks. Humid summers slow natural drying, so wet building materials that are not professionally dried tend to develop mold quickly. Problems tend to peak during spring, when storms and river crests overlap, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Standing water and wet insulation in crawlspaces
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Damp crawlspaces with mold on floor joists and subfloor
• Indoor humidity that stays above 60 percent for much of the year

First steps for Little Rock property owners

A few actions in the first minutes limit the damage and protect your claim:

• Do not run the HVAC system if ducts or the air handler got wet, and do not use household fans on sewage or flood water
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything

When and where damage happens in Little Rock

Crawlspace homes are common, and wet crawlspaces are the number one source of hidden mold and musty odors in this area.

Winter brings frozen and burst pipes; spring and summer bring the heavy rain, saturated ground and sump failures that flood lower levels. Home fires peak in winter, when space heaters, fireplaces and furnaces are running and holiday cooking and decorating add risk. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
