What causes water, fire and mold damage in Wilsons Mills

Local conditions in Wilsons Mills 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.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• 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
• Clogged air-conditioning condensate lines and overflowing drain pans that soak ceilings and closets
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Electrical shorts in humid attics and crawlspaces
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls
• Indoor humidity that stays above 60 percent for much of the year

What to do right now

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

• 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
• 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
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• 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

When and where damage happens in Wilsons Mills

Whatever the construction type in Wilsons Mills, 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.
