Over the past few weeks, the North Carolina region has experienced record-breaking rainfall, leading to saturated soils and widespread water intrusion in homes across North Carolina and South Carolina. If you’ve noticed standing water, musty odors, or new wall cracks, your foundation may already be under stress.

Why Moisture Season Matters

When heavy rains overwhelm the soil around your home, hydrostatic pressure builds against your basement and crawl space walls. This pressure can cause:

• Active water leaks into crawl spaces and basements

• Spikes in humidity and wood moisture levels

• Structural bowing, cracking, or shifting in retaining walls

• Ideal conditions for toxic mold growth, like Aspergillus and Penicillium, which can begin forming within just 48 hours

Ignoring these warning signs can lead to major foundation damage and costly home repairs.
