What a mess!

I really don't know because I haven't done home repairs before lol. My dad told me that a little bit of moisture won't hurt too much as long as we fixed the problem and it's not going to keep leaking in. But I haven't talked to him since we noticed how much moisture was in the wall above the front door!

I am glad we took the other doorframe apart to dry out though, because it's an original doorframe and almost 100 years old. It would be irreplaceable if that wood got ruined!

Wow..sorry to hear about your leak Lynsey. I sure hope it is something that is pretty easy to fix and not too terribly expensive. I don't know anything about stuff like that. Are you guys going to try to fix it yourself or hire someone? I hope it gets fixed soon.

I think we'd probably just do it ourselves. My dad and Scott have both done drywall stuff before so they'll know what to do. That's if we even need to do anything!
