According to the City of Portland Bureau of Environmental Services, a storm in December 2015 caused the highest peak flow recorded on Johnson Creek, and the creek's watershed drains parts of Clackamas and Multnomah counties and the cities of Gresham, Portland and Milwaukie.
Away from the creek, water reaches Gresham homes through roofs, gutters, window wells and crawl space vents during long wet spells. Keep gutters and downspouts clear, direct water away from the foundation, and check a crawl space after heavy rain. The Oregon Health Authority advises cleaning and completely drying flooded areas and keeping indoor humidity at 30 to 60 percent, and we dry to verified targets with moisture meters and thermal imaging.
How We Handle Losses in Gresham
Gresham's hazard setting is wet winters, high water along Johnson Creek, and ice storms and windstorms that bring down limbs onto roofs and cut power. Crawl spaces and basements can collect water, outages can stop sump pumps, and frozen pipes can split in hard freezes. We prepare for extraction, drying, tarping before interior work, and mold control after water has sat.
Mold usually follows water in Gresham homes. A basement or crawl space that took on water and was not dried to verified targets, a slow leak inside a wall, or a crawl space that stays damp through a long wet winter can grow mold within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove firefighting water from lower levels, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Gresham usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after ice storms, windstorms, falling trees, and wind-driven rain. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
