Fire damage risks in Edgewater
Edgewater has a mix of housing: older waterfront cottages and converted summer homes on Mayo and in Selby-on-the-Bay, mid-century neighborhoods along the South River creeks, and newer subdivisions off Route 2. Many older cottages have crawl spaces, older electrical systems and space heaters, all of which raise fire risk. Fireplaces and wood stoves are popular, so chimney fires and back-drafting soot are common winter calls.
Being surrounded by water means humidity stays high, so the water left by firefighting needs fast drying and crawl spaces need checking for trapped moisture and soot.

Edgewater questions
Do you cover the Mayo peninsula?
Yes. Restoration providers reached through our line serve Edgewater 21037, including the Mayo peninsula, Londontowne, Selby-on-the-Bay and homes along Route 2 and Route 214.
My Edgewater home is a waterfront cottage. Does that change anything?
Older waterfront cottages often have crawl spaces, older wiring and less insulation, which can let smoke and water spread under the floor. Crews will check the crawl space and use dehumidifiers because of the high humidity near the water.
