What causes water, fire and mold damage in Hudsonville

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

• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Failing galvanized, cast iron and polybutylene plumbing in older homes
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Slow plumbing leaks inside the walls of older homes
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation

First steps for Hudsonville 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• 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
• 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

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.

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.
