Local risks: Palisades and Rockland County

The risks in Palisades in Rockland County are shaped by New York's climate and housing. 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.

In Palisades, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Heavy lake-effect snow loads and the meltwater and ice dams that follow
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Nor'easters that combine heavy rain or snow with wind-driven moisture and long power outages
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Salt air and coastal humidity that keep building materials damp

Before the crew arrives

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

• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Palisades

Regardless of the age of a building, water finds the same weak points: supply connections, roof penetrations, window flashing and anywhere two materials meet.

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.
