Water damage in a home can be highly troublesome because it’s both pervasive and destructive. When water gets into areas like walls, floors, and ceilings, it can weaken structural integrity, cause wood to warp, and lead to the growth of mold and mildew. Water damage often affects electrical systems and insulation, leading to expensive repairs and higher energy costs. The presence of moisture also creates an ideal breeding ground for pests, making the problems even worse.
