Common property damage problems in Naugatuck

Naugatuck shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Connecticut's older housing stock, nor'easters and hard winter freezes make burst pipes, ice dams and wet basements routine problems, while coastal towns on Long Island Sound also face storm surge and wind-driven rain. Humid summers mean damp basements can turn into mold problems without dehumidification. Problems tend to peak during mid-winter and the spring thaw, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

In Naugatuck, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Toilet and tub overflows
• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt

Before the crew arrives

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

• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• 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
• 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

When and where damage happens in Naugatuck

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

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. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
