What causes water, fire and mold damage in Marysville

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

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Heavy lake-effect snow loads and the meltwater and ice dams that follow
• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Failing galvanized, cast iron and polybutylene plumbing in older homes
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Meltwater seepage into foundations each spring
• Slow plumbing leaks inside the walls of older homes

First steps for Marysville property owners

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

When and where damage happens in Marysville

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

The calendar matters here: burst pipes cluster in the coldest weeks of winter, while basement and roof leaks follow the heavy rains of spring and summer. 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.
