Local risks: Weston and Platte County

Property owners in Weston deal with the same regional risks found throughout Missouri. Missouri sees heavy rain, flash floods and major river flooding along the Missouri and Mississippi, along with tornadoes, hail and winter ice storms. Basements are standard in much of the state, so groundwater seepage and sump failures are everyday calls. Problems tend to peak during spring storm and flood season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

In Weston, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• River flooding when nearby waterways crest after prolonged rain
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors

First steps for Weston 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
• 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
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage

When and where damage happens in Weston

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

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. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
