Whether you own a single-family home, a multistory apartment building or a commercial property in eastern PA, paying attention to the condition of the exterior is a vital ongoing maintenance checklist item. So, if you notice exterior wall water damage during a routine inspection of your siding, is this something you should be concerned about — and if so, who should you turn to address it?
Exterior Wall Water Damage: Who to Call?
Whether your structure’s exterior cladding is stucco, stone, brick, vinyl or a combination of materials, moisture damage can manifest itself in several different kinds of visual evidence. Common symptoms that precipitation is getting stuck in the siding system without a viable method of drainage include:
- Cracks
- Water marks left behind by heavy precipitation
- Efflorescence (white marks)
- Decomposition (falling off the structure)
If not addressed promptly, these concerns can become far more than just aesthetic, with serious potential risks arising from mold and mildew growth, rotting of the wood underneath the siding, water leaking indoors and even damage to the foundation. In other words, these issues demand thorough, professional attention to avoid catastrophic outcomes.
