Are Stucco Homes The Only Homes With Moisture Problems?
No. It is important to remember that moisture problems found in stucco homes are often present in homes clad with brick, wood, vinyl and other claddings. Because it is more difficult to test these types of homes for moisture, it is incorrectly assumed that these homes don’t have the potential for moisture problems. Moisture does more damage to all homes in the United States than fire, termites, flooding and other types of damage combined. All homes should be inspected to assure that the proper protection from moisture is in place.
