Water Damage Tampa & Older Homes

Character homes are often sought after for their unique charm. Current trends have people purchasing older homes and renovating the interiors to suit modern tastes and functionality while preserving the vintage feel of the older home. However, with charm and character often come problems because the older homes are just that: old.



When purchasing an older home, there are several possible issues you should look for, including potential problems with the plumbing. One example of a plumbing problem in an older home is clogged drains. For the sake of example, let’s take a hundred year old home and look at the bath/shower: just think about all the people who have bathed during this time period! Now add the possibility of pets being bathed or what have you. Soap scum, hair and mold growth can all build up and cause water to drain slowly or not at all. Therefore, it is good practice to use hair traps in your shower/tub drains and clean them regularly. Clogged drains can lead to water backup and potentially, water damage or even mold damage.

In addition, if considering the purchase of an older home, it is advisable to have the drains scoped. Scoping companies will utilize cameras to look into your drains and sewer pipes to see the condition of the drains. Scoping is a proactive way to check out the drains in any home, especially in an older home where problems are more likely. An initial investment to check the condition of drains and pipes can save you a large amount of time in cleanup, money and headaches down the road. One huge headache that can be avoided by scoping is potential sewer backup. Sewer backups are an unfortunate but common problem in U.S. cities and towns.

Know the Signs of Water Damage St. Petersburg Before You Buy a House

With so many houses on the market in the Tampa Bay area, there has never been a better time to buy. Whether you live in the area or not, house prices are low thanks to the plethora of foreclosures within the last few years. Sadly, when it comes to the housing market, one person's loss is another person's gain. But not always.

While shopping for a new home or even a vacation property, it is important to know what the signs of water damage are so you can sport them long before you get into a potential buyer's contract. Knowing what to look for during your home search can help you greatly in the long end. Not only will it give you an idea of the work that may need to be done to restore the home but it will flag the fact that the home does have problems. Too often lately, home buyers are complaining of home inspections that did not show serious water damage or mold damage problems. While home inspectors are supposed to record all findings of damage or problems to the home, some do not.
