Owners live in 86% of the occupied homes in the ZIP codes around Shelocta, according to the ACS. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Shelocta was built in the 1970s. Upstairs laundry in a two-story home from this period sends leaks through older ceiling drywall. Insulation above the ceiling holds the water. The crew checks the joist bay.
Long winters push laundry into basements, garages and mudrooms. Cold air holds little moisture, so crews add heat and run dehumidifiers longer. A hose in an unheated space can also freeze and crack. Homeowners in Shelocta typically carry a policy that lists sudden water discharge. Reading the water damage section before calling the insurer helps set expectations.
