Local risks: Grover and Cleveland County

The risks in Grover in Cleveland 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.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Clogged air-conditioning condensate lines and overflowing drain pans that soak ceilings and closets
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Standing water and wet insulation in crawlspaces
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls
• Air-conditioning condensate leaks and sweating ductwork in closets and attics

What to do right now

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

• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• 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

When and where damage happens in Grover

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.
