ABOUT THE HIGHLANDS, WILMINGTON DE

Water Damage in The Highlands: What Wilmington Homeowners Face Here

The Highlands sits along Bancroft Parkway just southeast of Rockford Park, developed in the late 19th century for affluent residents with detached and semi-detached homes of exuberant architectural detail. The age of these homes means original roofing and plumbing systems are common, raising the risk of slow leaks going unnoticed for months.

⚠ Unexplained wet spots on floors or baseboards
⚠ Water bill that climbed with no visible cause
⚠ Ceiling stain that appeared without a storm overhead
⚠ Peeling paint or bubbling plaster near a roofline

Mold can begin developing within 24 to 48 hours of water sitting untreated. Every hour without extraction increases the total restoration cost. Call (302) 267-7950 now.

COMMON ISSUES

Common Water Damage Problems in The Highlands

The Highlands' historic architecture and proximity to Rockford Park drive two recurring damage patterns:

Original Roofing and Ceiling Leaks

Century-old roof lines in The Highlands can let water in during storms long before a visible leak appears inside. See our ceiling water damage repair page for what happens from the moment we arrive.

Aging Plumbing Failures

Original supply lines in these century-old homes fail more often than newer construction. Our burst pipe water damage restoration team handles it start to finish.
