Water Destroys Homes and Buildings.

Bulk Water, Usually Rain

The most common and destructive type of water damage is typically rain related and includes many sources:

• Water seepage though basement walls.
• Leaks through walls at areas like doors and windows
• Roof leaks, usually through penetrations and flashing errors
• Plumbing leaks, an outlier but relevant

Bulk water leaks come in many forms from the rare catastrophic plumbing failure to the more common hidden leak that causes its damage over many years. Homeowner maintenance goes a long way to preventing and reducing problems. For those building new, we suggest hiring builders who take these matters seriously. We think blower door test results offer a fair measurement for distinguishing between builders for this type of hidden craftsmanship.
