Common property damage problems in Brentwood

Property owners in Brentwood deal with the same regional risks found throughout New York. New York ranges from dense pre-war apartment buildings in the city to lake-effect snow country upstate, so water damage comes from everything from burst risers and sewer backups to ice dams and roof collapse. Coastal storms and intense rainfall have repeatedly flooded basements across the metro area. Problems tend to peak during winter and the late-summer storm season, 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
• Failing galvanized, cast iron and polybutylene plumbing in older homes
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Nor'easters that combine heavy rain or snow with wind-driven moisture and long power outages
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls

Before the crew arrives

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

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

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Brentwood

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

Winter brings frozen and burst pipes; spring and summer bring the heavy rain, saturated ground and sump failures that flood lower levels. 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.
