Surefire Water Damage Signs to Look Out For

Heavy downpours have a way of wreaking havoc on your home. Though April may be long gone, it just may have left substantial damage to your home. The problem, however, is that water damage can be tricky to spot.

Fortunately, the area’s most trusted roofers have a wealth of knowledge and experience to share. Diamond Roofing Specialists, Inc. gives you a look at the surefire signs of water damage in your home.

There are Visible Stains on the Walls

Be wary when you see stains or darkened areas in your home with no apparent cause. There’s a big possibility that there’s water that can’t drain in specific areas. When that happens, there’s always the threat of mold growth. It’s best to treat these as soon as you discover them. Otherwise, you might expose yourself to various respiratory ailments.

Strong Odors Permeate

While it’s true that strong odors can be a nuisance, it’s important to get rid of them right at the source. They can be a sign that you’ve got a major mold or mildew problem. Again, this is a respiratory hazard risk that you should deal with swiftly. Timely roofing or siding repair services can get things back to normal.

Your Floors are Warping

Warped floors, walls, and ceilings are obvious red flags. Only excessive water can cause them which means you’ve got a severe problem on your hands that calls for immediate repairs. Have your contractor address the issue as soon as possible. Also, you may need to reinforce your waterproofing.

Keep an eye out for these signs and make sure you contact your trusted contractor for speedy and reliable solutions.
