Local risks: Duxbury and Plymouth County

Property owners in Duxbury deal with the same regional risks found throughout 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.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Nor'easters that combine heavy rain or snow with wind-driven moisture and long power outages
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Electrical shorts in humid attics and crawlspaces
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt

Before the crew arrives

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

• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• 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
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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

When and where damage happens in Duxbury

Many homes date back decades, with galvanized pipes, cast iron sewer lines and electrical systems that were never designed for modern loads.

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.
