Local risks: Springfield and Walworth County

Local conditions in Springfield follow the broader pattern across Wisconsin. 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.

The calls crews receive most often from this area include:

• Intense rainfall that overwhelms gutters, downspouts and yard drainage
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Roof leaks around flashing, vents and chimneys
• 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
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Window, door and siding leaks after heavy rain
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics

What to do right now

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

• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• 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
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
• 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

Local construction and seasonal patterns in Springfield

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

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.
