Local risks: Aurora and Arapahoe County

Aurora shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Colorado homes deal with freeze-thaw cycles that burst pipes and crack foundations, heavy wet spring snow, some of the most damaging hail in the country along the Front Range, and wildfire risk in foothill communities. Finished basements are common, which is where much of the state's water damage ends up. Problems tend to peak during winter freezes and the spring hail and snowmelt season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
• Toilet and tub overflows
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Wildfire smoke, ash and soot infiltration, and structure fires at the wildland edge
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics
• 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:

• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• 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
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Aurora

Every property type in Aurora has its own failure points, which is why crews map moisture with meters and infrared cameras before deciding what to remove.

The coldest stretches of winter produce a surge in frozen and burst pipe calls, and the spring thaw brings the groundwater problems that follow. Home fires peak in winter, when space heaters, fireplaces and furnaces are running and holiday cooking and decorating add risk. Winter condensation on windows and in attics, followed by spring moisture in basements and crawlspaces, gives mold two seasons to get started.
