What causes water damage around Colgate
In Wisconsin, property owners deal with cold winters, humid summers and a lot of homes with basements. The causes we hear about most are spring snowmelt and river flooding, frozen pipes in unheated spaces during cold snaps and sump pump failure and basement flooding. 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.
