Local risks: Providence and Caswell County

Local conditions in Providence follow the broader pattern across North Carolina. 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:

• Clogged air-conditioning condensate lines and overflowing drain pans that soak ceilings and closets
• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Standing water and wet insulation in crawlspaces
• Electrical shorts in humid attics and crawlspaces
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors

What to do right now

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

• 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• 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
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• 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.

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.
