Local risks: Mapleton and Cass County

The risks in Mapleton in Cass County are shaped by North Dakota's climate and housing. North Dakota's brutal winters freeze pipes and build ice dams, and the spring melt regularly pushes the Red River and other waterways out of their banks into basements. Summer brings hail and severe storms. Problems tend to peak during winter and spring flood season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• River flooding when nearby waterways crest after prolonged rain
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Window condensation and attic frost in winter
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt

First steps for Mapleton property owners

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

• 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
• 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
• 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

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Mapleton

Regardless of the age of a building, water finds the same weak points: supply connections, roof penetrations, window flashing and anywhere two materials meet.

The coldest stretches of winter produce a surge in frozen and burst pipe calls, and the spring thaw brings the groundwater problems that follow. Home fires peak in winter, when space heaters, fireplaces and furnaces are running and holiday cooking and decorating add risk. Winter condensation on windows and in attics, followed by spring moisture in basements and crawlspaces, gives mold two seasons to get started.
