Common property damage problems in Lewiston

Lewiston shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Utah's Wasatch Front homes commonly have finished basements that take on water during spring snowmelt and from failed water heaters and supply lines, while winter freezes burst pipes and summer brings wildfire smoke and flash floods in canyon country. Problems tend to peak during spring snowmelt and winter, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

In Lewiston, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Washing machine hose bursts and dishwasher or refrigerator supply line leaks
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
• Foundation movement in expansive clay soils that cracks slabs and stresses buried plumbing
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Basement walls and floors that stay damp after rain and snowmelt
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics

Before the crew arrives

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

• 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
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed

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.

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. Winter condensation on windows and in attics, followed by spring moisture in basements and crawlspaces, gives mold two seasons to get started.
