doesn't seem urgent. Then a little water intrusion becomes a much bigger problem.

Water is one of the biggest threats to your home. It can damage your foundation, contribute to mold growth, rot building materials, and lead to expensive repairs.

That's why Mike Holmes always tells homeowners: don't ignore the warning signs.

As building envelopes get tighter, indoor air quality becomes a critical part of doing the job right. That’s why Mike Holmes always recommends ERVs (Energy Recovery Ventilators) in the home.

When we reduce air leakage, we reduce energy loss—but we also limit natural ventilation. Without mechanical ventilation, you're inviting issues like excess humidity, off-gassing from materials, and poor occupant health. That’s not making it right.

An ERV helps maintain balanced ventilation by exhausting stale indoor air and bringing in fresh outdoor air, while transferring both heat and moisture between the airstreams. This keeps indoor conditions stable and reduces the load on HVAC systems.
