What causes water, fire and mold damage in Aberdeen

Aberdeen shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Kentucky's hollows and river valleys are highly exposed to flash flooding, and the state also sees tornado outbreaks, ice storms and humid summers that keep crawlspaces damp. Hillside homes with crawlspaces and basements are especially prone to groundwater intrusion. Problems tend to peak during late winter and spring, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• River flooding when nearby waterways crest after prolonged rain
• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Toilet and tub overflows
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors
• Indoor humidity that stays above 60 percent for much of the year

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
• 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• 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
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces

When and where damage happens in Aberdeen

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

The calendar matters here: burst pipes cluster in the coldest weeks of winter, while basement and roof leaks follow the heavy rains of spring and summer. 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.
