How to prevent water damage or flood in your home?
By addressing these areas regularly, you can catch water damage early and prevent larger, costlier repairs.
Inspect Walls and Ceilings: Look for discoloration, stains, or bubbling paint, which can indicate water intrusion. Peeling wallpaper or warped surfaces are also signs of damage.
Check Floors: Warped or buckling floors, especially hardwood, can signal water seepage. Carpets may feel damp or smell musty if there's hidden moisture.
Examine Windows and Doors: Look for signs of condensation or moisture buildup around frames, as this could point to leaks or poor sealing.
Inspect the Attic and Roof: Look for any water stains or mold in the attic, and check the roof for missing shingles, cracked flashing, or clogged gutters that could allow water to enter.
Monitor the Basement and Foundation: Check for pooling water, dampness, or visible cracks in the foundation walls, which may indicate poor drainage or seepage.
Smell for Musty Odors: A persistent musty smell in certain areas can suggest mold or mildew caused by ongoing water issues.
Test Water Fixtures and Appliances: Check for leaks under sinks, around toilets, and behind washing machines, dishwashers, and water heaters.
What is causing Odor?
Odors in the home can be caused by a variety of sources, often indicating underlying issues. Odor inspection is usually performed by skilled professional. Some common causes include:
​
Mold and Mildew: Excess moisture or water damage can lead to mold growth, which produces a musty, unpleasant odor.
Pet Odors: Pets can leave behind smells from dander, urine, or accidents that seep into carpets, furniture, and flooring.
Cooking Residue: Strong food smells, especially from fried or spicy dishes, can linger in the air and absorb into fabrics and surfaces.
Plumbing Issues: Leaks or clogs in pipes can create damp environments that lead to bad odors, or sewage backups can result in a foul smell.
Dirty HVAC Systems: Dust, mold, and bacteria can accumulate in air ducts and vents, spreading unpleasant odors throughout the home.
Trash and Food Waste: Garbage that’s left too long or organic waste in trash bins can start to smell and attract pests.
Cigarette Smoke: Smoke can permeate walls, furniture, and fabrics, leaving a lasting odor in rooms.
Poor Ventilation: A lack of airflow can trap odors and make them more noticeable, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, or basements.
Identifying and addressing the source of the odor is key to effectively eliminating it.
