Moraga is a smaller community in California, home to roughly 16,700 residents, and like every community it has its share of burst pipes, basement floods, kitchen fires and hidden mold.

Local risks: Moraga and Contra Costa County

The risks in Moraga in Contra Costa 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.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Slab leaks from supply lines running beneath concrete foundations
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Plumbing connections and water heaters shaken loose by seismic movement
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain
• Moisture left behind after fire-suppression water

Before the crew arrives

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

• 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
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• 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
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors

Building types, timing and seasonal risk

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.
