SIGNS THAT YOUR HOUSE HAS WATER DAMAGE

Sometimes water damage is caused by an incident - a water pipe breaks, bad weather causes exposure or ice dams leave you with roof damage. Other times water damage develops over time - and that can be more difficult to diagnose. Here are some typical signs that you have or soon will have troubles:

Leaky windows: often a sign of incorrect window installation. It's likely your home has already sustained some water damage.
Apparent water seepage on the exterior of the house: can be caused by stucco that is below grade, which allows water to wick up a wall from the ground up.
Discoloration on ceiling or walls: often a sign of leaky roof, possibly due to ice dams in the winter. If water damage continues the stains will get darker and darker.
Rotting wood on roof: can be caused by poor water drainage away from the roof when kick out flashing allows water behind the stucco, rotting out the wood beneath.
