Discolored patches or rings on the ceiling usually mean a slow leak from a pipe or the roof above.

Carpet that stays damp for days ruins the pad and can rot the subfloor beneath it.

Common Causes of Water Damage in Portola Springs

Burst or Leaking Supply Lines

High water pressure, corrosion or a loose fitting can make a pipe fail and release water fast.

Faulty or Clogged Gutters

Gutters that overflow or pull loose dump water right beside the foundation, where it can seep in.

Overflowing Bathtubs or Toilets

A clogged toilet or a tub left running can send gallons of water across floors and into the rooms nearby.

Slab Leaks Under the Foundation

A pipe leaking under a concrete slab can soak flooring and baseboards for months before anyone sees the water.

Severe Weather and Heavy Rainfall

Driving rain can push water past roofs, windows and foundations and flood rooms inside.
