Common property damage problems in Patterson

Patterson 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.

In Patterson, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• 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
• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Electrical fires from aging wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated panels
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation
• 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:

• 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• 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
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Patterson

Whatever the construction type in Patterson, 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.
