Common property damage problems in Preston

Property owners in Preston deal with the same regional risks found throughout Oklahoma. Oklahoma's violent spring storm season brings tornadoes, giant hail and flash floods, while ice storms and hard freezes burst pipes in winter. Most homes sit on slabs over expansive clay, which makes slab leaks and foundation movement common. Problems tend to peak during april through june severe-weather season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Slab leaks from supply lines running beneath concrete foundations
• Toilet and tub overflows
• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Grass and brush fires that spread to fences, outbuildings and homes
• Slab leaks that keep flooring and bottom plates damp for months
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics

Before the crew arrives

A few actions in the first minutes limit the damage and protect your claim:

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

When and where damage happens in Preston

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

Winter brings frozen and burst pipes; spring and summer bring the heavy rain, saturated ground and sump failures that flood lower levels. 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.
