What causes water damage around Minneapolis
In Minnesota, property owners deal with cold winters, humid summers and a lot of homes with basements. The causes we hear about most are severe storms, hail and wind that open up roofs, spring snowmelt and river flooding and frozen pipes in unheated spaces during cold snaps. Basement flooding peaks in spring and early summer, and freezing pipes become the bigger worry from late November through February.
Split and frozen lines are a leading source of indoor flooding, which is covered in our burst pipe water damage repair page. Many homes here have basements or crawlspaces that take on water, so see how basement flooding cleanup works.
