What causes water damage around Locust
In North Carolina, property owners deal with warm, humid weather for much of the year and frequent heavy rain. The causes we hear about most are crawlspace moisture and leaking supply lines under raised floors, roof leaks after wind and hail and tropical storms and heavy summer thunderstorms. 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.
