What causes water, fire and mold damage in Swansboro

Local conditions in Swansboro 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:

• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Standing water and wet insulation in crawlspaces
• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• 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
• Electrical fires when power is restored to water-damaged wiring after a storm
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain
• Damp crawlspaces with mold on floor joists and subfloor

First steps for Swansboro property owners

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

• 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
• 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
• 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces

When and where damage happens in Swansboro

Whatever the construction type in Swansboro, the pattern is the same: the visible damage is usually a fraction of what the moisture meter finds.

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.
