Local risks: Chesterfield and Chesterfield County

Property owners in Chesterfield deal with the same regional risks found throughout South Carolina. South Carolina's Lowcountry floods from storm surge and extreme rainfall, the Midlands and Upstate see flash flooding and severe storms, and year-round humidity keeps crawlspaces damp enough to grow mold. Air-conditioning condensate leaks are a frequent cause of ceiling damage. Problems tend to peak during hurricane season (june through november), but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

In Chesterfield, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Standing water and wet insulation in crawlspaces
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Air-conditioning condensate leaks and sweating ductwork in closets and attics
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors

Before the crew arrives

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

• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• 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
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors

Building types, timing and seasonal risk

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

Hurricane season brings the largest losses, but year-round humidity and heavy summer rain keep crews busy every month. Cooking fires are the leading cause year-round, with electrical and heating fires rising in the cooler months. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
