What causes water damage around Forest Park
In Georgia, property owners deal with warm, humid weather for much of the year and frequent heavy rain. The causes we hear about most are roof leaks after wind and hail, tropical storms and heavy summer thunderstorms and high humidity that lets mold start quickly on wet materials. Storm season is longest from June through November, and humid weather means wet materials dry slowly without equipment.
Humid air slows drying, which makes structural drying and dehumidification an important part of any job. Wind, hail, heavy rain and ice can open a roof, and ceiling and roof leak water damage explains what comes next.
