WHY DOES A CONDOMINIUM LEAK DURING WIND-DRIVEN RAIN?

Wind-driven rain can push water into weak joints, flashing transitions and openings that do not leak during lighter rain. Water can then travel inside the wall before appearing in a unit.

RECORD THE CONDITIONS

Note the affected unit, date, wind direction, rain intensity and visible entry location. Reports from neighboring units may reveal an elevation-wide pattern.

AVOID ANOTHER GUESS

The nearest window or visible crack may not be the source. Repeated resealing without testing can leave the actual entry path unresolved.

INVESTIGATE THE ASSEMBLY

Review repair history and exterior transitions. Targeted water testing or exploratory openings may be appropriate when your engineer or consultant establishes a repair scope.
