Local risks
What causes water damage in East Point
Mixed-age plumbing
East Point's housing spans many decades, so leaks come from both ends: corroded original pipes in older homes and failed supply lines and appliances in newer ones.
Apartments and shared walls
Renters occupy about 56% of East Point's homes. In multi-unit buildings, water from one unit travels through floors and shared walls, so report leaks to the landlord or association in writing right away.
Clay soil drainage
