What causes water, fire and mold damage in Bear Creek

Bear Creek shares the weather and building patterns of the rest of the state. Wisconsin's hard winters freeze pipes and build ice dams, spring melt and intense summer rain flood basements, and many homes have aging sump systems that fail exactly when they are needed most. Problems tend to peak during winter and the spring thaw, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

In Bear Creek, the most frequent emergencies look like this:

• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Tornado and straight-line wind damage that opens roofs and walls to rain
• Heavy lake-effect snow loads and the meltwater and ice dams that follow
• Leaking shower pans and failed tile grout
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Lightning strikes and downed power lines during severe storms
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics
• Attic and ceiling moisture from ice dams and roof condensation

First steps for Bear Creek property owners

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

• 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
• 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
• 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

When and where damage happens in Bear Creek

Every property type in Bear Creek has its own failure points, which is why crews map moisture with meters and infrared cameras before deciding what to remove.

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.
