How long do I have to sue over property damage in Washington?

Answered for: Washington

(1) An action for waste or trespass upon real property; (2) An action for taking, detaining, or injuring personal property, including an action for the specific recovery thereof

The statute states 3 years for property damage. When that clock starts, and whether it can be paused, are separate questions this entry does not answer.

This answer is true in Washington and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for Washington.
