Water damage restoration in Coral Gables, traced through the plaster.

Masonry homes from the 1920s to 40s, barrel tile roofs, and a tree canopy that becomes a liability in a storm.

What we see in Coral Gables

Coral Gables houses are built well and built old. Solid masonry and plaster dries slowly and unevenly, which means the equipment plan matters more than it does in newer construction, and original materials are worth saving where the readings allow.

Plaster over masonry

Plaster holds moisture far longer than drywall and hides it better. Penetrating meters and patience are usually the right answer.

Barrel tile roof intrusion

Displaced or cracked tiles let water into the deck and then along the framing, appearing well away from the entry point.

Tree limb and canopy damage

Mature ficus and oak canopy causes a disproportionate share of storm openings in the Gables.

Often, yes. Plaster holds water longer than drywall but it doesn't wick the same way, so we meter it across several days before anyone decides to cut.

Only enough to stop water coming in. The permanent repair is a roofer's job, and we'll say so rather than take it on.

Old plaster hides water longer than drywall does.

Call and we'll trace it with a meter instead of guessing where to cut.
