Common property damage problems in Prince Frederick

Property owners in Prince Frederick deal with the same regional risks found throughout Maryland. Maryland stretches from Chesapeake Bay tidal communities to the mountains, so flood risk ranges from storm surge to flash floods in steep stream valleys. Humid summers, older housing in Baltimore and the inner suburbs, and basement-heavy construction make mold and sewer backups common complaints. Problems tend to peak during summer thunderstorms and the fall tropical 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
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Failing galvanized, cast iron and polybutylene plumbing in older homes
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Indoor humidity that stays above 60 percent for much of the year
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain

First steps for Prince Frederick property owners

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

• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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
• 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage

When and where damage happens in Prince Frederick

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. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
