Water damage help for Trillium homes
Trillium is one of the newer master planned communities in north Buckeye. Many homes here are only a few years old or still being built. That is good news for things like old pipes and worn out roofs, but new homes have their own early issues. Plumbing, appliances, roofs and drainage are all getting tested for the first time.

Common water damage risks in Trillium
New plumbing fittings
Connections at sinks, toilets, water heaters and the main manifold can loosen as a new system settles in. A small drip under a sink can soak a cabinet base and subfloor before anyone notices.
Construction related leaks
Pipes nicked by nails or screws, shower pans that were not sealed and tub drains that were not tightened can leak into walls and floors. These often show up months after move in.
Move in appliance hookups
Washer hoses, dishwasher lines and fridge water lines are often connected in a hurry during move in. Loose connections are one of the most common early leaks in any new home.
Drainage in a growing neighborhood
While a community is still being built, surrounding lots, streets and landscaping are changing. Storm water can move in unexpected ways during heavy monsoon rain, and new yards may not slope away from the house as well as they should.
New AC systems
New AC systems run hard in north Buckeye summers. Condensate lines that were not sloped well can back up and overflow.

Frequently asked questions
Why would a brand new home in Trillium leak?
Loose fittings, construction damage to pipes, unsealed shower pans and appliance hookups are the most common causes in new homes.
Should I wait for my builder before drying?
Notify your builder right away, but do not let water sit. Most warranties and policies expect you to prevent further damage.
Will my builder warranty cover it?
It depends on the cause and the warranty terms. Clear documentation helps.
Can new drywall and flooring be saved?
Often, yes, if the water was clean and drying starts quickly.
Is monsoon flooding a risk in a new neighborhood?
It can be, especially while lots and landscaping are still settling. Check that your yard slopes away from the house.
Do you serve every part of Trillium?
Yes, including new sections as they open.
