Local risks: Sanbornton and Belknap County

Sanbornton 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.

In Sanbornton, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Toilet and tub overflows
• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Meltwater seepage into foundations each spring
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter

First steps for Sanbornton property owners

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

• 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
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• 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

How it works

1. You call (888) 755-3821 and tell us what you are dealing with and your Sanbornton address.

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Sanbornton

Whatever the construction type in Sanbornton, 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.
