Why Winter Demands Extra Protection for Vacant Properties
Vacant properties face heightened risks during winter, and Milwaukee (Madison, Wausau, Kenosha, Racine, and other cities) is no exception. Without proper precautions, property owners may encounter:
- Severe Property Damage: Freezing temperatures can burst pipes, leading to water damage. Snow or ice accumulation can weaken roofs, compromise structural integrity, and block drainage systems.
- Increased Safety Hazards: Ice-covered walkways can cause slips and falls, creating liability risks for property owners. Additionally, unheated interiors can encourage mold growth, further deteriorating your property.
- Unwanted Occupants: Vacant buildings are a magnet for squatters seeking refuge during cold months. Their presence can result in legal complications, vandalism, and even fire hazards from unsafe heating methods.
