Common property damage problems in Island Park

Island Park shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. 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.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Heavy lake-effect snow loads and the meltwater and ice dams that follow
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Salt air and coastal humidity that keep building materials damp
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls

What to do right now

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
• 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
• 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
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything

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 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. Winter condensation on windows and in attics, followed by spring moisture in basements and crawlspaces, gives mold two seasons to get started.
