        "text": "In Florida's humid climate, storm-driven rain and intense plumbing failures can cause moisture to spread rapidly into neighboring framing cavities and adjacent rooms. High ambient humidity slows down natural drying, increasing the risk of prolonged moisture exposure inside wall cavities. When repairing storm or pipe damage in coastal and inland Tampa Bay neighborhoods, contractors carefully inspect exterior envelope seals, stucco integrity, and interior vapor barriers to prevent secondary deterioration.",
