Common property damage problems in Hampstead

Property owners in Hampstead deal with the same regional risks found throughout New Hampshire. New Hampshire's cold winters, heavy snow and spring mud season make frozen pipes, ice dams and wet basements the dominant water problems, often in older homes and seasonal properties that sit unheated. Nor'easters bring wind-driven rain and power outages that disable sump pumps. Problems tend to peak during winter and the spring thaw, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics
• Meltwater seepage into foundations each spring

Before the crew arrives

A few actions in the first minutes limit the damage and protect your claim:

• 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
• 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
• 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
• 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

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.

The coldest stretches of winter produce a surge in frozen and burst pipe calls, and the spring thaw brings the groundwater problems that follow. 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.
