How Do Our Inspectors Detect Water Damage? 

• Wet spots on the ceiling: Water stains on the ceiling are a sign of a dripping pipe or a leaky roof.
• Discolored walls and cracking drywall: The drywall needs to stay dry. But when it’s exposed to moisture, it can actually rot and distort in time. Keep your eyes peeled for yellowish discoloration and stains in addition to peeling paint.
• Mold or mildew: Moldy walls may mean that there’s a major underlying issue. It could mean you have a leaky pipe that is saturating the insulation and drywall.
• Warping: Warped floors can point to a high level of moisture below your floorboards or a problem with your home’s foundation.
• Rusty spots: Rust can be a symptom of exposure to water for a longer period of time.
• Unpleasant odors: A mildewy odor may be a symptom of bad ventilation among other problems.
