What causes water, fire and mold damage in Brandon

Property owners in Brandon deal with the same regional risks found throughout Mississippi. Mississippi is exposed to Gulf hurricanes, frequent tornadoes, flash flooding and Mississippi River crests, and the humid climate means wet crawlspaces and attics develop mold rapidly. Many homes sit on piers over crawlspaces that collect moisture year-round. Problems tend to peak during spring severe weather and hurricane season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Clogged air-conditioning condensate lines and overflowing drain pans that soak ceilings and closets
• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors
• Indoor humidity that stays above 60 percent for much of the year

First steps for Brandon property owners

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

• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed

Building types, timing and seasonal risk

Regardless of the age of a building, water finds the same weak points: supply connections, roof penetrations, window flashing and anywhere two materials meet.

Hurricane season brings the largest losses, but year-round humidity and heavy summer rain keep crews busy every month. Cooking fires are the leading cause year-round, with electrical and heating fires rising in the cooler months. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
