Common property damage problems in New Town

Local conditions in New Town 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 New Town, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• 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
• Nor'easters that combine heavy rain or snow with wind-driven moisture and long power outages
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Failing galvanized, cast iron and polybutylene plumbing in older homes
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Salt air and coastal humidity that keep building materials damp
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation

Before the crew arrives

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

• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• 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

When and where damage happens in New Town

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.
