Common property damage problems in Overland Park

Property owners in Overland Park deal with the same regional risks found throughout Kansas. Kansas sits squarely in Tornado Alley, and wind, hail and the heavy rain that accompanies supercell storms cause most storm-related water damage. Expansive clay soils that dry and crack in drought and swell when wet stress foundations and slab plumbing, and winter freezes are hard enough to burst pipes. Problems tend to peak during spring and early summer severe weather, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Foundation movement in expansive clay soils that cracks slabs and stresses buried plumbing
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Grass and brush fires that spread to fences, outbuildings and homes
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics

What to do right now

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

• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• 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
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• 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

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Overland Park

Basements are standard in this part of the country, so finished lower levels, sump pumps and floor drains are the first things a crew checks.

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.
