Marana homes and how water gets in
Most Marana homes were built from the 1990s on, with PEX or CPVC plumbing, stucco exteriors, tile roofs and slab foundations. Builder-grade supply lines, washing-machine hoses and water heaters are now reaching the age when they fail.
Builder-grade connections failing together
In subdivisions built in the same few years, supply lines, toilet connections and water heaters tend to fail around the same age. Braided stainless supply lines are an inexpensive upgrade.
Low areas near washes
Homes near the Santa Cruz River corridor and local washes can see runoff reach garages and ground-level doors during heavy monsoon storms.
Two-story laundry and bathrooms
In two-story homes, a washer or bathroom leak upstairs damages the ceiling below as well — a two-room problem from a single failure.
Attic and garage water heaters
Many two-story Marana homes put the water heater in the garage, but some have attic units. An attic heater without a working drain pan sends water straight through the ceiling below when the tank fails.

Marana homeowners ask
Does a new Marana home's builder warranty cover water damage?
Builder warranties usually cover defects in workmanship for a limited time, but not appliance failures or damage from a leak after the warranty period. Your homeowners policy is typically where sudden water damage is claimed.
How often should washing machine hoses be replaced?
Every five years or so, or sooner if they bulge or crack. Braided stainless steel hoses last longer than rubber ones.
Who issues permits in Marana?
The Town of Marana issues building permits within town limits.
