Local risks: Pelham and Hillsborough County

Pelham shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. 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:

• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Nor'easters that combine heavy rain or snow with wind-driven moisture and long power outages
• 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
• Failing galvanized, cast iron and polybutylene plumbing in older homes
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation

Before the crew arrives

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

• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• 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
• 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
• 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

When and where damage happens in Pelham

Whatever the construction type in Pelham, the pattern is the same: the visible damage is usually a fraction of what the moisture meter finds.

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.
