Water damage in Dunwoody: what to know

With a 1984 median build year — older than most of north metro — many Dunwoody homes are reaching the age where original water heaters, polybutylene-era fittings, and roof flashing start to fail. Finished basements are common, so leaks are often found late.

Common causes of water damage around metro Atlanta

• Summer thunderstorms: intense downpours can overwhelm gutters, grading and sump pumps, especially on sloped lots.
• Georgia red clay: clay soil drains slowly and holds water against foundation walls, which drives basement and crawlspace seepage.
• Winter freezes: hard freezes are infrequent here, so pipes in exterior walls, attics and crawlspaces are often not protected. When one does come, burst pipes follow.
• Aging appliances and supply lines: water heaters, washing-machine hoses, ice-maker lines and toilet supply lines are some of the most common causes of sudden indoor leaks.
• Humidity: Atlanta's humid summers mean wet materials can grow mold quickly if they aren't dried properly.
