However, other signs depend on where the moisture creeps in.<\/p>\n Water\u2019s most frequent points of entry are along a foundation. Given enough time, water can open cracks and fissures in the concrete that composes this infrastructure. It may also rot wooden structures or fixtures.<\/p>\n Beyond this damage, water also encourages the growth of mold and mildew. Its presence attracts bacteria-ridden insects and rodents as well.<\/p>\n With these hazards in mind, let us consider some of the spots inside<\/em> your home that are vulnerable to water damage. Recall that the potential for seepage (as well as the waterproofing solution<\/a> that we provide) depends on your home\u2019s setting and design:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Now, let us go outside<\/em> and look for further vulnerable places.
