San Antonio's average relative humidity hovers around 65 percent year-round, spiking to 90 percent after summer thunderstorms. When your attic ventilation cannot exhaust that moisture-laden air, condensation forms on the underside of your roof decking. The plywood stays damp for hours or days. Fungal spores colonize the wood. The fibers soften and lose rigidity. At the same time, expansive clay soil shifts beneath your foundation during wet and dry cycles. This gradual movement stresses your roof framing over decades, accelerating bowed roof sheathing and sunken roof sections. The combination of persistent moisture and subtle structural movement creates the perfect conditions for premature decking failure.
