What causes water, fire and mold damage in Brevard

The risks in Brevard in Transylvania County are shaped by North Carolina's climate and housing. North Carolina's coast and inland river basins flood during hurricanes and tropical storms, the mountains see flash floods and landslides, and the Piedmont's crawlspace homes trap humidity that leads to mold. Summer thunderstorms and ice storms add roof and tree damage. Problems tend to peak during hurricane season, with winter ice storms, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Electrical shorts in humid attics and crawlspaces
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors
• 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:

• 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
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces

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.

Hurricane season brings the largest losses, but year-round humidity and heavy summer rain keep crews busy every month. Cooking fires are the leading cause year-round, with electrical and heating fires rising in the cooler months. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
