Hidden Water Damage Detected in Chino Hills Home?
1/30/2024 (Permalink)
Our local Chino/Chino Hills team responds to water damage emergencies throughout the year in Chino Hills. Hidden water damage may not result in immediate flooding. Some pipes may develop slow leaks or cracks over time, which can go unnoticed for a while. These hidden leaks can cause water to seep into wall cavities, ceilings, or floors.
Over time, this moisture can lead to structural damage, rot, and mold growth within your home. Often, the damage becomes apparent only after it has become extensive, requiring costly repairs. These hidden leaks can also be a source of wasted water and increased water bills.
Here are some signs of hidden water damage:
- Dark or wet spots on the walls or ceiling
- Wet areas or water pooling on the floor
- Flaking, cracking, or bubbling paint or drywall
- Hearing the sound of running water that you can’t place
- Hearing the sound of dripping water that you can’t locate
- Visible dripping water you can see but dripping where it should not be
- Significant increase in your water bill for no known reason
- Strong, damp, musky odors
- Visible mold growing
