High Bear River flows that spring affected St. Charles and Fish Haven, with numerous flooded basements, and Montpelier was under a flood watch. Rising rivers lift groundwater too, so a basement can flood without any water showing on the street.
If water gets in, stay out of a flooded basement or crawl space while power is on, shut off electricity at the panel if it is safe, and call us. River water is contaminated, so wet drywall, insulation and carpet pad need to come out and the structure needs cleaning and drying to verified targets.
How We Handle Losses in Montpelier and Bear Lake
Montpelier, St. Charles, Fish Haven and Geneva face river flooding in spring and frozen pipes and snow load in winter. Seasonal homes near the lake can sit empty for weeks, so a leak or a thaw seep may run unseen. We use meters and thermal imaging to find hidden moisture and dry before anything is rebuilt.
Mold usually follows water in Montpelier and Bear Lake homes. A basement 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 humid summer 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 the basement, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Montpelier and Bear Lake usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain or ice dams. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
