Whitman is a town in Plymouth County, on ZIP 02382 and about 6.7 km from the Brockton anchor. Its houses face the same nor'easter, storm and winter losses as the city, and the calls are usually about a single cellar, line or ceiling. The line is answered 24/7.
Whitman is a few kilometres from the city and shares its weather and its county. Most of its water calls are about one house, and the damage tends to be in the lower rooms, the cellar or a ceiling below a bathroom.
The local record for the town is limited, so the page sets out the general pattern for houses in the region and the state rules that apply across Massachusetts. The crew records what it finds on the day.
Start with the main shut-off if a line is running, keep clear of standing water near electricity and photograph the damage before moving anything.
Local weather drives activity here: heat, humidity and rain change what shows up week to week.
Storm water usually enters at ground level, through a low door, a window well, a cellar vent or a crack at the foundation. Heavy rain pushes water toward those openings, and the cellar takes the first of it.
A split line in a wall or under the floor is the second common source, and it shows as a damp patch at the base of the wall or a soft board above the cellar.
A cold spell that cuts the power can freeze the lines in outside walls. The leak often shows on the thaw, and the first check is the meter with every fixture off.
The first warm day after a freeze is the right time to check the ceilings, the walls near outside corners and the access to the cellar.
Keep the time the water was found, the photographs of the damage and the readings. Note the weather that day, and keep the crew's scope with the insurer's letters.
Massachusetts consumers are directed first to the insurer or the producer in writing. The Division of Insurance is the next step if the answer is not adequate.
