Your foundation, basement and crawlspaces are at risk due to standing snow and extreme Freeze-Thaw Cycles.
Here’s Why!
The freeze-thaw cycle, also known as frost heave, is created when water freezes and thaws, expanding and contracting within structures. When water drops below 32°F, it expands by 9%, creating pressure on anything surrounding it.
When water seeps into cracks or other openings in structures, then freezes and expands, it causes those openings to widen, causing damage. Over time, the wider openings lead to more water finding its way into structures, resulting in a slow but exponential wearing down of their integrity and stability. Water can and will intrude into your home. We are having extreme temperature swings this winter. Please note: melting snow and ground water intrusion are not covered by your homeowner’s insurance. You need to catch this potential issue early before it because a disaster.
The freeze-thaw cycle can affect many home structures, including gutters, utility lines, foundations, walls, and soil. Freeze-thaw cycles often occur during the winter, when freezing temperatures give way to warmer temperatures, melting the snow temporarily, only to freeze over again once the wave fades. The faster this temperature adjustment occurs, the more intense the cycle is, causing more severe structural damage.
