Since December, ice dams are to blame for water leaking into hundreds of Dane County homes, WISC-TV reported.
Vicki Andrews, from American Family Insurance, said it's the worst she's seen in at least the last 10 years. She said adjusters have been working at capacity to assess damage.
"Between December and January, we've had two large influxes of these ice dam claims," Andrews said. "The catastrophe department has handled upwards of 700 of those -- over and above what our own local adjusters are handling." (source:www.channel3000.com) |
