What causes water, fire and mold damage in Spiritwood

Property owners in Spiritwood deal with the same regional risks found throughout North Dakota. 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.

In Spiritwood, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Toilet and tub overflows
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt

What to do right now

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

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

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Spiritwood

Every property type in Spiritwood has its own failure points, which is why crews map moisture with meters and infrared cameras before deciding what to remove.

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.
