What causes water, fire and mold damage in Leary

Leary 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:

• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Clogged air-conditioning condensate lines and overflowing drain pans that soak ceilings and closets
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Standing water and wet insulation in crawlspaces
• Electrical shorts in humid attics and crawlspaces
• Electrical fires when power is restored to water-damaged wiring after a storm
• Indoor humidity that stays above 60 percent for much of the year
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain

What to do right now

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

• 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
• 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
• 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

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.

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.
