Signs of Water Leak Damage
There are plenty of signs to tell that it’s time to replace your windows or window seals. One of the biggest problems of failing or dated windows is water damage. At the first sign of water leak damage, it’s important to act immediately. Water damage can lead to more severe issues if left untreated. Watch out for these signs around your windows and contact us for repair services:
A foul, musty odor
Trapped moisture can create a musty odor that accumulates in your home. This odor also seeps into other materials and furniture in your home, making it difficult to eradicate.
Mold growth
Speaking of musty odors, mold can begin to accumulate with leftover moisture. It can be fuzzy, brown, black, spotty or a combination of colors. Not only does it look gross, but the airborne spores produced by mold are dangerous to your family’s health.
Stains
With water damage comes water stains. You may notice yellowing, discoloration or even brown stains appear on and around your windows.
Peeling or bubbling paint
If your drywall becomes saturated, it can lose adhesion to the paint or wallpaper. This then starts to bubble and peel away from the wall. It can also cause flaking or fading.
Warped floor or walls
Water can affect all types of materials it touches. If water has seeped into your walls and down to your floors, it can warp the subfloor and cause peeling linoleum, warped floorboards and even loose tiles.
Resolve Leaks Before It’s Too Late
Water leakage can be a real health and safety problem that can go unnoticed until it’s too late. If you look at your window and see that water has come in, or you can see clear signs of water damage discolored or peeling paint on the windows or walls, that’s all the evidence you need to know you have a water leakage problem.
If you can see the surface effects, you can be sure there’s likely more damage you can’t see. Moisture inside your walls can cause a host of health and safety problems, from mold and bacteria growth to rot and insect damage to the structural framing of your home. These are serious issues, so it’s imperative that water leaks be dealt with as quickly as possible.
