24/7 Emergency
Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Lowell, MA
From wind-driven rain to flash flooding, crews board up, extract, and dry the structure, then document everything for the claim. Storm and flood recovery starts with extraction and structural drying, then documenting the loss for an insurance or flood claim. Because floodwater carries soil and debris, affected porous materials are removed rather than dried, and the structure is re-checked as it dries.

Frequently asked questions
The canals are filled. Why would they still wet a basement?
Filling a canal covers it; it does not delete the water. Raceways were cut to move the Merrimack through the mills, and that path still exists under streets and parlors. A basement can take moisture from below on a fair day because the hydrology the city was built on is still running.
Pawtucket Falls is a tourist site. Is it also a moisture source?
The falls are why the canals exist. They set the head that drove water into the grid. The tourist view is the same drop that keeps the lower city wet. You cannot have the mills without the water, and the housing was built into that system, not beside it.
A triple-decker a few streets off the river. Still on a raceway?
Possibly. The canal grid is wider than the riverbank. Many later houses were built on filled channels that only show as a wet corner or a floor that is colder than the rest. A map of the old company canals is more useful than a look at the current shoreline.
