A small amount of water entering your home may not seem like a serious problem, but hidden moisture can cause major damage over time. Water can enter through plumbing leaks, damaged roofs, windows, doors, siding, or other areas of the exterior. Heavy rain and melting snow can also find their way into areas that are not properly sealed.
When water remains hidden inside walls or under floors, it can damage the subfloor, framing, and other wood members. Over time, continued moisture can cause wood to weaken, rot, and lose its strength.
Moisture can also create the right conditions for mold growth, including black mold. If the problem is not addressed early, damaged materials may need to be removed and replaced, making the repair more expensive.
The sooner water intrusion is found and repaired, the better. Properly identifying the source of the water and repairing the damaged areas can help protect your home and prevent a small problem from becoming a major repair.
