Local risks: Fellows and Kern County

The risks in Fellows in Kern County are shaped by California's climate and housing. California's property damage risks are unusually varied: wildfire and smoke damage in the wildland-urban interface, atmospheric-river storms that overwhelm roofs and drainage in winter, post-fire debris flows, and the everyday slab leaks and supply-line failures found in slab-on-grade housing. Older housing stock in coastal cities adds aging plumbing and wiring to the list. Problems tend to peak during wildfire season in late summer and fall, storm season in winter, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Slab leaks from supply lines running beneath concrete foundations
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Failing galvanized, cast iron and polybutylene plumbing in older homes
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Plumbing connections and water heaters shaken loose by seismic movement
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Salt air and coastal humidity that keep building materials damp
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors

What to do right now

The first hour determines how much can be saved. While a crew is on the way:

• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• Shut off the main water valve if the source is a plumbing failure, and turn off power to the affected area if water is near outlets or appliances
• 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

When and where damage happens in Fellows

Regardless of the age of a building, water finds the same weak points: supply connections, roof penetrations, window flashing and anywhere two materials meet.

Storm season produces the biggest spikes in calls, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen every month of the year. Late summer and fall bring wildfire smoke and structure fire risk, while kitchen fires remain the leading cause year-round. The long wet season keeps crawlspaces, siding and window frames damp, and mold follows wherever drying lags behind the rain.
