When we walked across the roof, we could tell that the trusses were rotten -- they sagged, they crackled, they popped. To be safe, we had a crew build these supports in the living room to make sure the roof didn't collapse. If your roof make creepy noises of sags when you walk on it -- lock off access to the roof immediately. And give Wet Building Solutions a call. We'll help you figure out next steps to keep everyone who lives in the building safe <br/> </p> </div> Fri, 15 May 2026 19:04:39 GMT bob.kelly@wickright.com (Robert Kelly) https://www.wetbuildingsolutions.com/rotten-trusses-endanger-residents-in-chicago-3-flat56d1d190 wet_buildings,Rotten_trusses,roof_collapse,mystery_leaks,leaking_brick,Leaking_masonry,Leaking_Roof,Leaking_parapets,structural_damage,truss_damage thumbnail
