Warping of The Walls: The Causes & Prevention | Idaho Falls

When water damage stays for long on the property, it can affect severely and cause destruction. One of the most common water damage signs is the warping of the walls. As a result of absorbing excess water and moisture from the air, drywall and its surrounding structures tend to flex or warp.

Warping in drywall can also happen due to discoloration or cracking. So it's important to keep an eye out for signs of water damage. At times, the warping might be quite severe. It could end up causing expensive structural damage.

What Could Possibly Cause the Walls to Warp?

Warping of the walls

The exterior walls get damaged because of long-term water damage. It slowly degrades the structural integrity of your property. There are several causes for it. Such as:

  • Flooding: Extreme storms may create massive volumes of rain, leading to flash floods. This might cause sewers and other infrastructure to get clogged or even fail.
  • Electronics failure: Appliances that consume water, such as washing machines, dishwashers, and others, might break down as they age or are being used carelessly.
  • Plumbing leaks: As a result of corrosion, high water pressure, or extreme weather condition, plumbing failure might occur. These can lead to clogging and the excess water can cause the walls to warp.

Reviews from Our Clients


“All American Cleaning and Restoration has taken care of floods and leaks for us for the past 30 + years. Each time has been great! Two tricky leaks were particularly difficult to find and repair. Fletch returned until the problem was solved and everything restored perfectly. My wife and I could not be happier with the service and concern both in Idaho Falls and Island Park. They took care of us and took care of our problems---it just doesn't get any better.”

“All American performed some mold remediation and restoration in a basement room of my home. They were very responsive and timely, Fletch was professional from initial inspection to completion of the work, all crew members took the time to complete their work well, and the result was great! I would highly recommend All American Cleaning & Restoration.”

“As a former employee I feel confident in saying that All American Cleaning and Restoration is the best in town. Whether you are looking for a carpet cleaning or disaster restoration they are the ones to call. Everyone is incredibly skilled and trained. Very professional and friendly employees. I will be a lifelong customer. That should mean something coming from someone that doesn't work there (anymore)”
