Common property damage problems in Avon

Local conditions in Avon follow the broader pattern across Massachusetts. Massachusetts has some of the oldest housing in the country, and nor'easters, hard freezes and ice dams repeatedly find the weak points in older roofs and plumbing. Finished basements across the suburbs are vulnerable to spring groundwater and failing sump pumps. Problems tend to peak during winter and the early spring thaw, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

In Avon, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Nor'easters that combine heavy rain or snow with wind-driven moisture and long power outages
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Electrical shorts in humid attics and crawlspaces
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation

First steps for Avon property owners

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

• 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
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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
• 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

Building types, timing and seasonal risk

Older housing stock adds aging plumbing, cast iron drains and original wiring to the list of things that fail.

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