Bubbling or Peeling Paint

Paint that blisters or peels away from the wall has moisture underneath. Repainting before it dries only hides the problem.

Soggy or Stained Carpet Padding

Carpet that stays damp for days ruins the pad and can rot the subfloor beneath it.

High Indoor Humidity After a Storm

A sticky feel to the air and foggy windows after a storm mean moisture got inside and has not dried out.

Walls, floors and ceilings are checked with meters to find hidden moisture and set the drying plan.

Step 3: Accelerated Drying With Specialized Equipment

Drying equipment is placed for airflow and humidity control, and checked daily.

Step 4: Reconstruction and Final Walkthrough

After drying is confirmed, repairs are made, followed by a final walkthrough with you.

Leading Causes of Home Water Damage in Port Townsend

Sprinkler System Leaks or Breaks

A broken underground irrigation line soaks the soil around the house, and that water can seep inside.

HVAC Condensate Drain Line Clogs

A blocked AC drain line makes the drain pan overflow, leaking water into walls or ceilings.

Severe Weather and Heavy Rainfall

Driving rain can push water past roofs, windows and foundations and flood rooms inside.

Foundation Cracks and Seepage

Saturated soil presses water through cracks in foundation walls or the slab, soaking lower floors.

Faulty or Clogged Gutters

Gutters that overflow or pull loose dump water right beside the foundation, where it can seep in.

Cleaning and drying furniture, belongings and documents is billed separately from the structure.

Required Drying Equipment

Material Absorption Rates

Drywall, insulation and carpet hold more water than concrete or tile, so they take longer to dry or need replacing.
