Canton homes and water damage
Ridgewood and Market Heights have 1920s–1950s homes with basements. Much of the city has early-1900s wood-frame homes with aging plumbing and stone or brick foundations. Many Canton homes were built in the early 1900s for steelworkers, with basements, plaster walls and hardwood floors. Old floor drains and sewer laterals often back up during heavy storms, and aging water heaters and supply lines in basements fail without warning, soaking stored belongings.
Frozen pipes
Ohio cold freezes pipes in exterior walls and unheated spaces.
Ice dams
Snow and freeze-thaw cycles cause ice dams that leak into ceilings.
Basement flooding
Heavy rain and snowmelt flood older basements.
Sewer backups
Heavy storms overload sewers and back water into floor drains.
Aging plumbing
Older homes have galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains.
Sump pump failures
Power outages during storms stop sump pumps exactly when they're needed most.
Severe storms
Summer storms bring high winds that damage roofs and bring trees down.
Vacant-home damage
Homes left empty can have frozen or leaking pipes go unnoticed.
