Water Damage Restoration in Fountain Hills, AZ

Water damage in Fountain Hills: what is different here

Fountain Hills is a hillside community east of Scottsdale, with many custom and semi custom homes and condos on sloped lots. Slopes direct storm runoff around and sometimes toward houses, and hillside homes often have lower level rooms that are the first to take on water.

Hard freezes are rare, but they do happen on cold winter nights and exposed pipes, hose bibs and irrigation lines can split.

What causes water damage in Phoenix Metro

• Monsoon storms. Dust storms and short, heavy downpours between mid June and the end of September can push water under doors, through roof flashing and into garages in a matter of minutes.
• Plumbing failures. Supply lines, water heaters, toilets and ice maker lines are behind most indoor water losses. Mineral rich water speeds up wear on fittings, valves and tank liners.
• Air conditioning leaks. Condensate drain lines clog and overflow, and evaporator coils leak into attics and closets. Heat means these systems run most of the year.
• Slab leaks. Many valley homes sit on concrete slabs, so a pinhole leak in a pipe under the slab can run for weeks before a damp floor or a high water bill gives it away.
• Roof leaks. Flat and low slope roofs, tile underlayment that has aged out and penetrations around vents and skylights let in rain at the worst moments.

Do this while you wait for help

1. Stop the source. Close the main water valve, a fixture shutoff or the appliance valve if you can reach it safely.
2. Think about electricity. If water is near outlets, a panel or wet ceilings with light fixtures, turn off power at the breaker only if the panel is dry and you can reach it without standing in water.
3. Protect people first. Keep children, older adults and pets away from wet areas, and stay out of anything that smells like sewage.
4. Document before you clean. Record a slow walkthrough video, then take close photos of the source, damaged materials and belongings.
5. Move what you can. Lift small furniture, electronics, documents and keepsakes onto dry surfaces, and pull rugs and cushions out of wet areas.
6. Call for help right away. Every hour of delay spreads moisture further into drywall, subfloors and insulation.
