Local risks: Wade and Cumberland County

Property owners in Wade deal with the same regional risks found throughout 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:

• Standing water and wet insulation in crawlspaces
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• 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
• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Electrical fires when power is restored to water-damaged wiring after a storm
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls
• Indoor humidity that stays above 60 percent for much of the year

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
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors

When and where damage happens in Wade

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.
