Local risks: Tigerville and the surrounding area

Local conditions in Tigerville follow the broader pattern across 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 Tigerville, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Toilet and tub overflows
• Wind-driven rain, roof damage and storm surge from hurricanes and tropical storms
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls
• Air-conditioning condensate leaks and sweating ductwork in closets and attics

First steps for Tigerville property owners

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

• 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
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• 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
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything

When and where damage happens in Tigerville

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.
