Sweet. Office wall/window gushing water.

Well that was fun.  We have one window at our office that was just gushing rain water.  Awesome.  We got some garbage cans and paper towels to try to limit the damage and thankfully didn't lose any drawings.  We have big windows on 3 sides of our office and we're up on the top floor so it was quite the storm to watch!

Anyone else have water issues??

Re: Sweet. Office wall/window gushing water.

  • DH's office's ceiling was leaking water (and he's not even on the top floor).  No water at my office but the 48th floor of my building was swaying like a ship.  The doors were even swaying. In 5 yrs I've never seen/felt anything like it.
  • We are in a one level office complex and have a flat roof...we have leaking in two very different area's of our office through the ceiling.  Oh the joys!  Our lights even flickered once and I thought for sure we'd lose power.

    Even though tall buildings are built to have some sway in them, I think I'd rather have gushing water than go through that 48 floors up!!  Scary!!

  • One of our office windows was leaking from a previous storm and luckily it was fixed on Fri, so no leaking today.

  • I work in the Wells Fargo Biulding, and it was swaying like crazy. I felt drunk walking around.
  • Sounds like my front living room window.  I CAN'T WAIT to get our new bay window installed.
  • We've had water in our {unfinished} basement 3 times in the past ~3 weeks. H.A.T.E.

    Joe and a neighbor put in glass block windows last monday - I hope that fixed most of the problem...

  • I work in an old warehouse in MPLS and it leaks badly when it rains with any vigor - although it seems like never in the same spot twice! 

    I haven't even gone into my basement yet - we haven't gotten our gutters put back up since our siding was re-done and one of our window wells tends to fill.  Normally it isn't a problem when we have gutters.  *sigh*  Add it to the list of things to fix this week including the washing machine and front door.
