Boise homes and water damage
Older homes have basements, and newer homes are often crawlspace or slab construction. Boise's Bench and Southeast neighborhoods have many 1950s–70s ranch homes on crawlspaces or basements with original galvanized plumbing. The Treasure Valley's new subdivisions in Meridian and Eagle are mostly slab or crawlspace homes with attic equipment. Older North End homes often have stone or brick foundations and plaster walls, and many have had basements finished without waterproofing, so seepage during spring runoff damages living space.
Frozen pipes
Cold winters freeze pipes in crawlspaces and exterior walls.
Wildfire smoke
Summer smoke from regional fires infiltrates homes.
New-home leaks
Rapid construction means common new-home failures like PEX fittings and attic water heaters.
Boise River flooding
High spring runoff on the Boise River can flood low-lying areas, especially during big snowpack years.
Older North End homes
North End and East End homes have basements, older plumbing and limited insulation.
Dry climate drying
Boise's dry climate helps drying, but hidden moisture still needs measuring.
Ice dams
Heavy snow and cold create ice dams on older roofs.
