• Listen for leaks or constant water flow around your home.
• Be mindful of your water bill, note any high fluctuation.
• Look out for cracks in the wall that may spread or seem to have movement.
• Be aware of a distinct, musty order, mold may be present.
• Look for dark spots or white patterns that may differ from the flooring, roof, & base boards.
• If you have hardwood flooring, be aware of any buckling or lifted nails from the floorboard.
