Can A House Or Apartment Fire, Damage A Foundation?

Concrete is used  in many parts of a home or building. This includes the foundation, barriers, support beams and other structures. Concrete is also used as a fireproofing, due to its low thermal conductivity. In a substantial fire, concrete can weaken and sometimes must be replaced. This is the reason why insurance companies account for a foundation, when insuring a building or dwelling.

Facts of Concrete Being Exposed To Fire

Up to 300 °C(572F),  the concrete undergoes regular thermal expansion. Above that temperature, shrinkage occurs due to loss of water. Aggregate continues expanding, which causes internal stress. Up to about 500 °C, the major structural changes are carbonation and coarsening of pores. At 573 °C(1063F), quartz undergoes rapid expansion due to Phase transition, and at 900 °C(1652F) calcite starts to shrink due to decomposition. At 450-550 °C(842 to 1022F) the cement hydrate decomposes, producing calcium oxide. Calcium carbonate decomposes at about 600 °C(1112F). Rehydration of  calcium oxide on the dropping temperture of the concrete causes expansion. This can cause damage to the concrete which sustained the fire without falling apart. Concrete that has experienced a fire and left standing for several years shows extensive degree of carbonation and deteriation.

The Temperture of a house or apartment fire.

  • A House or Apartment Fire can exceed 1100F is 3 1/2 minutes.
  • The Heat from a fire can spread to any room. These temperatures can reach over 300F without an active fire in that room.

Overall if concrete of any sort is exposed long enough to fire, it could cause little or even a lot of damage. This can be a concern, due to the fact that the foundation supports the dwelling or building and supports a lot of wait. A Structural  or Civil engineer can determine if a foundation is safe or not.

HOW THE BEAUTIFUL COLORS OF FALL CAN AFFECT YOUR RISKS ON YOUR PROPERTY

So you look out your window and see a tree changing colors from red to orange to yellow to light green or you see a bush that is covered in red.  What a beautiful display of color our earth offers us during the month of October.  That tree in your front yard is sprayed with a beautiful array of red and orange that is breathtaking.  If we take a trip in the mountains we see landscapes of rivers reflecting the colors of the trees and a wonderous view of color delight.

Fall colors are at their peak right now, but after their show we start to see leaves fall to the ground.  These leaves eventually clutter and cover our lawns with a blanket of debris.  that debris can become a hazard for not only appearance purposes but for people walking onto your property.  Those little piles of leaves left on the walkways can get wet and become slippery and troublesome for people who don’t see them.  The piles of debris of leaves can become a hazard just waiting for an accident to happen.  Here are a few tips for you to adhere to in order to prevent accidents during this beautiful and colorful season.

Make sure your walkways are clear of the leaf debris and piles of leaves.  Have your driveways and walks well lighted so people can see where they are walking.  Clear all debris and leaves from the lawn so walkers on don’t fall, and clean all leaves from your front door especially.  Clean all areas of your lawn and walkways you feel someone might enter to prevent any type of accident. 

When it snows or rains, leaves tend to become ugly and slippery.  Make sure to shovel your walks and driveway so people don’t fall from the slippery leaves. 

Leaves are usually less harmfull  than a lot of other hazards, but when they clutter together, they can become a strong hazard.  It becomes your liability as a homeowner when people fall.  Make sure your homeowners policy carries good liability coverage.  Don’t allow accidents to happen by keeping your home’s walkways safe from accidents.  If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call us for a free quote or information.

The Liability Of Halloween Trick Or Treaters On Your Property

Halloween can be a great and fun time of the year. Those little pumpkins come to the door and say “Trick or Treat” and you give them all kinds of candy. Many Moms and Dads walk along with their children in gathering those little treats, and even sometimes grandmas and grandpas. As We all know they come on your property, ring your door bell and you give out goodies. The unforeseen threat is when the “trick or treaters” come  on your property, you could potentially be held liable for anything that could happen. This is if someone slips o falls, or any other type of “accident”. This could be if you are  a renter, homeowner or landlord. There are a couple of ways to prevent and protect yourself and we are going to explain what to do.

What To Do To Your Property To Prepare For Trick Or Treaters

  • Make sure there is a clear path from the street to your door. Make sure there is enough space for people to walk.
  • Have the area’s well-lit with light. This is so people can see clearly where they are walking on your property.
  • If its snows, shovel your driveway and walkways, and lay down salt. This is to prevent slip and falls.
  • Don’t have any hazards in the way or attractive nuisance’s.  This could be a hole you are digging in your lawn, or a pile of lumber or rocks in your yard.

Check Your Home Insurance Policy

Make sure your homeowners or renters policy has enough liability and medical coverage. We at least recommend having $5,000 in Medical Payments Coverage and having at least a $300,000 liability. Increasing these coverages will at most cost you an extra $50 dollars per year.  If someone sues you or there is a monetary judgement held against you due to an incident, your home insurance policy protects you.

If you take these basic steps it will assure a lot safer Halloween for you as a homeowner, and for your trick or treaters. Happy Halloween. If you have any questions or would like a quote, please contact us. Thanks for reading!

Will The Insurance Company Inspect My Home?

When purchasing home insurance, there are some steps involved. One of them being inspecting your home after purchase of  the policy. When you buy a homeowners policy, the insurance company has the right for inspection. This can be at the beginning, or in the middle of the term. There are a couple of reasons why insurance companies does this.

  1. The insurance companies checks the assessor report, square footage, build and other factors to make sure that the home is insured to 100 percent of its value. This is to assure that property’s don’t go under insured.
  2. The inspector looks for pride of ownership. In other woods is the home being taken care and maintained. From there the inspector will note in his/her report their findings. This could be that the house is in good shape, or needs work.
  3. Liabilities are noted and sent back to the under writer. This could be a pool, trampoline, or any other liability.
  4. There are other steps that the inspector might through, such as an interior inspection, but for the most part, the first 3 steps, are the main steps.

After the inspection is done, the inspector will send his report back to the insurance company. From here, it will go through under writing, and if there are no flags, the policy gets issued. The insurance company may also require further steps, such as fixing a condition in the house. They could also completely deny issuance of a policy, but this only happens a small percentage of the time, usually due to a serious factor. (An Example is telling an insurance company that you own a Golden Retriever, but they find out you have a Pit bull).
