Common property damage problems in Emerson

Emerson shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Georgia's humid subtropical climate, heavy rain events and occasional tropical systems moving inland keep crawlspaces and basements damp, and the state's spring severe-weather season produces wind and hail damage. Clay soils that swell and shrink also stress foundations and buried plumbing. Problems tend to peak during spring storm season and late summer, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Electrical fires when power is restored to water-damaged wiring after a storm
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls
• Damp crawlspaces with mold on floor joists and subfloor

What to do right now

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

• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• 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
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• 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

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Emerson

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

Hurricane season brings the largest losses, but year-round humidity and heavy summer rain keep crews busy every month. Late summer and fall bring wildfire smoke and structure fire risk, while kitchen fires remain the leading cause year-round. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
