Water damage risks in Jefferson Valley
Frozen pipes
Northern Westchester sees more hard freezes than the river towns and Sound Shore. Pipes in exterior walls, over garages and in crawl spaces are most at risk. Keep the heat at 55°F or higher when you are away.
Basements and sump pumps
Many homes have basements with sump pumps, and long rainy spells or snowmelt keep those pumps busy. A power outage during a storm can stop the pump at the worst time. A battery or water-powered backup is a good investment.
Townhouses and condos
In attached homes, a leak can cross into the unit next door. Check with your association about who handles what, and notify your HO-6 insurer.
Water damage in Jefferson Valley right now? Do this first
Shut off the water
In most Westchester homes, the main valve is in the basement where the water line comes in, next to the meter. In apartments, co-ops and condos, call the super or managing agent, who can shut off the riser. On a private well, turn off the well pump at its breaker.
Stay safe around electricity
Do not walk through water near outlets, appliances or the panel. Turn off power at the breaker only from a dry spot.
If drains are backing up
Most of southern and central Westchester is sewered, while many northern Westchester homes use septic systems. For a sewer backup, stop using water and call a plumber and your city, town or village. For septic, call a septic service company.
