Lynn homes and water damage
The Diamond District has Victorian homes. Much of Lynn has older multi-family homes. Many Lynn homes are older triple-deckers and two-families with shared basements, water heaters and boilers, so a leak in an upper unit can spread to units below. Diamond District homes are large Victorians with plaster walls and wood floors that need careful drying. Coastal homes face flooding during nor'easters. Many older homes have original cast-iron drain stacks that crack with age.
