The weight of water at this Saugerties home

Water mixing with insulation makes for Category 2 water contaminant

Hard wood floors buckling, cupping, uneven or raised when they recently were flat and smooth?

You could have an unforeseen water damage problem that has caused the porous wood to absorb water and expand however they can and in whatever direction they can shift.
