Common property damage problems in Long Grove

Long Grove shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Iowa's basement homes take the brunt of spring river flooding, saturated soils and sump pump failures, while winter brings burst pipes and ice dams. Severe storms with hail and straight-line winds damage roofs that then leak during the next rain. Problems tend to peak during spring flood season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• River flooding when nearby waterways crest after prolonged rain
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics

First steps for Long Grove property owners

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

• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• 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
• 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
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• 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

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.

Winter brings frozen and burst pipes; spring and summer bring the heavy rain, saturated ground and sump failures that flood lower levels. 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.
