Local risks: Barrington and Bristol County

Barrington shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Rhode Island's coastal exposure to nor'easters and hurricanes, combined with old housing stock and basement-heavy construction, means storm surge, wind-driven rain and burst pipes are regular events. Humid summers encourage mold in damp lower levels. Problems tend to peak during fall storm season and winter, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Persistent humidity that slows natural drying and lets damp materials turn into mold problems
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Toilet and tub overflows
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Electrical fires when power is restored to water-damaged wiring after a storm
• Oil furnace puff-backs that coat every room in soot
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls

What to do right now

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

• 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• 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

When and where damage happens in Barrington

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. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
