Common property damage problems in Wainwright

Wainwright shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. 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.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Slab leaks from supply lines running beneath concrete foundations
• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Foundation movement in expansive clay soils that cracks slabs and stresses buried plumbing
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Wildfire smoke, ash and soot infiltration, and structure fires at the wildland edge
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain

First steps for Wainwright property owners

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
• 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
• 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
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors

When and where damage happens in Wainwright

Whatever the construction type in Wainwright, 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.
