Common causes of water damage in Seattle
Long rainy season
Months of steady rain test roofs, gutters, windows and siding; small leaks run for weeks before they're noticed.
Damp basements and crawl spaces
Hillside lots and saturated soil push water into basements and crawl spaces.
Mold
Mild, damp weather means wet materials dry slowly and mold grows easily without proper drying.
Occasional freezes
Cold snaps are infrequent, so pipes are often not protected when one arrives.
What to do right now
- Shut off the water at the main valve if it's a pipe or appliance.
- Stay away from water near outlets and the electrical panel.
- Photograph everything before cleanup, for your insurer.
- Start drying: the EPA says drying within 24–48 hours prevents mold in most cases (EPA: A Brief Guide to Mold, Moisture and Your Home).
