Huntsville homes and water damage
Older homes in Blossomwood and Five Points sit on crawlspaces with aging plumbing, while newer subdivisions are mostly slab homes with attic HVAC equipment and common new-construction leak points. Older neighborhoods near downtown have mature trees that drop limbs on roofs during storms.
Tornadoes and severe storms
The April 27, 2011 outbreak brought devastating tornadoes across north Alabama, and severe storms still hit every spring.
Flash flooding
Heavy rain floods creeks like Indian Creek and low streets in parts of the city.
Crawlspace moisture
Humid summers keep crawlspaces damp, leading to mold and wood rot.
New-construction leaks
Rapid growth means many homes with PEX fittings, attic water heaters and washing machine boxes that commonly leak.
Ice storms
Occasional winter ice storms in north Alabama knock out power and freeze pipes in crawlspaces and exterior walls.
Hillside runoff
Homes on Monte Sano and other ridges sit on slopes that send stormwater toward foundations during heavy rain.
