Water came in around a window or door during Isaias? 🌧️ Wind-driven rain can push water past seals and soak the wall underneath without much showing. Here's what to check:
Look at the drywall and paint under each window for bubbling, staining or soft spots.Check the window sills and door thresholds for swelling, dark spots or peeling finish.Pull back the carpet edge near sliding doors. Wet tack strip and pad are common after storms.Watch for a musty smell or dark spots on the wall below a window. In Florida humidity, mold can start within 24 to 48 hours.Take photos of every spot before anything is cleaned up. Your insurance claim will need that documentation.
