Local risks
What causes water damage in Derry
Mixed-age plumbing
Derry's housing spans many decades, so leaks come from both ends: corroded original pipes in older homes and failed supply lines and appliances in newer ones.
Burst pipes in cold snaps
Pipes in exterior walls, over garages and in crawl spaces are most at risk during multi-day subzero stretches.
Ice dams
Older capes and colonials with little attic insulation are prone to ice dams that push water into top-floor ceilings.
Seasonal risks, licensing and FEMA history across the state are on the New Hampshire page.
