Local risks: Fraser and Grand County

Property owners in Fraser deal with the same regional risks found throughout Colorado. 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:

• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation

First steps for Fraser property owners

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

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

When and where damage happens in Fraser

Whatever the construction type in Fraser, the pattern is the same: the visible damage is usually a fraction of what the moisture meter finds.

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.
