What causes water damage around Russell
In Massachusetts, property owners deal with four distinct seasons, cold winters and a lot of older housing stock. The causes we hear about most are ice dams that push meltwater under roofing and into ceilings, basement flooding from heavy rain, nor'easters and spring snowmelt and aging supply lines and drain stacks in older homes. The riskiest stretch runs from December through March for frozen pipes and ice dams, with a second peak during spring thaw and summer thunderstorms.
Many homes here have basements or crawlspaces that take on water, so see how basement flooding cleanup works. Wind, hail, heavy rain and ice can open a roof, and ceiling and roof leak water damage explains what comes next.
