Common Water Damage Problems in Des Moines
River flooding
The Columbia, Snoqualmie and Skagit rivers rise after sustained rain, flooding low-lying homes along their banks. We see this across Des Moines after most big storms, and the earlier it is caught the smaller the repair.
Snowmelt flooding
Spring snowmelt in the Cascades swells rivers and streams, flooding low ground. In Des Moines, this is one of the first things we check during the assessment.
Coastal storm flooding
Washington’s Pacific coast and Puget Sound take storm surge and heavy rain from winter storms. Homes in Des Moines see this one often, and it is usually worse than it looks at first.
Basement seepage
Heavy winter rain pushes water through basement walls and floor joints in many Washington homes. Homes in Des Moines see this one often, and it is usually worse than it looks at first.
Signs You Need a Water Damage Pro in Des Moines
- A musty smell that will not go away — damp drywall or carpet in Des Moines homes often hides mold long before it is visible.
- Floors that warp or paint that bubbles — both mean wood or drywall has been absorbing water, usually from a leak nearby.
- Water stains on ceilings or walls — a stain usually means water has been travelling inside the wall for a while.
- A water bill that suddenly jumps — a hidden leak can waste hundreds of gallons a day without a single visible puddle.
- Dark spots or visible mold — after water damage this needs proper drying and cleaning, because bleach on the surface does not fix the damp behind it.

Seasonal Water Damage Tips for Des Moines
Spring
Spring rain continues in Washington. Check the basement and gutters, and look for damp spots on ceilings and walls after the winter storms.
Summer
Washington summers are dry, so leaks usually come from inside the home. Inspect washing machine hoses, the water heater and the dishwasher line before they fail.
Fall
Fall is when Washington prepares for the wet season. Get the gutters clean, check the roof, and clear any drain that could back up in the first big storm.
Winter
Winter in Washington means days of rain. A working sump pump, clear gutters, and a quick check for ceiling stains after every storm will catch most problems early.
