Frequently asked questions
There is no leak anywhere, so why is there mold on the wall?
In this climate it is often condensation rather than a leak. Through the wet season indoor humidity stays high and exterior walls stay cool, so moisture condenses on the cool surface, particularly behind furniture on a north-facing wall where air does not move. The fix is ventilation and humidity control, not a repair.
Why does the rain here cause trouble when the totals are not extreme?
Because it is the duration that matters, not the intensity. Thirty-eight inches spread across a long grey season keeps siding, roofing and framing continuously damp, and materials that never get a dry spell degrade in ways they would not under heavier but occasional rain.
Is a daylight basement a particular risk on a Seattle hillside?
It can be. Cutting a room into a slope puts one wall permanently against uphill soil, and that soil holds water through the wet months. Without functioning perimeter drainage the wall is holding back a saturated bank, and the first sign is usually damp at the base rather than a visible flow.
