What causes water, fire and mold damage in Clinton Township

Local conditions in Clinton Township follow the broader pattern across Michigan. Michigan homes almost always have basements, and sewer backups and sump failures during intense summer rain, plus burst pipes and ice dams in winter, make up most of the state's water damage. Lake-effect snow and heavy roof loads add to the risk on the west side of the state. Problems tend to peak during winter and the spring thaw, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

In Clinton Township, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Heavy lake-effect snow loads and the meltwater and ice dams that follow
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain
• Meltwater seepage into foundations each spring

Before the crew arrives

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

• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• 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
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Clinton Township

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

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. Winter condensation on windows and in attics, followed by spring moisture in basements and crawlspaces, gives mold two seasons to get started.
