Raleigh homes and water damage
Many Raleigh homes sit on vented crawlspaces, which stay humid in summer and grow mold. Newer homes have attic HVAC equipment and PEX plumbing with common new-construction leak points. Older homes in Oakwood and Boylan Heights have plaster walls, original wood floors and aging plumbing.
Crabtree Creek flooding
The Crabtree Valley area floods during heavy storms, damaging homes and businesses.
Hurricane rain and wind

Crawlspace moisture
Humid crawlspaces cause mold, musty odors and wood rot.
Ice storms
Occasional ice storms knock out power and freeze pipes in crawlspaces.
Falling trees
Raleigh's mature tree canopy means storms and hurricanes often drop large limbs and whole trees on roofs, letting rain inside.
Rapid new construction
Fast growth across Wake County means many new homes with common new-construction leak points, like PEX fittings, attic HVAC equipment and washing machine boxes.
