The blocks off 54th Ave N behind the 58th Street corner are 1950s and '60s slab houses — concrete block, low ceilings, cast iron waste lines long past their intended life. Water on a slab runs sideways, under the baseboards and into the block. And when cast iron finally lets go it's usually a backup rather than a clean leak, so extraction and controlled demo come before any drying equipment goes down.
Sitting low in the Joe's Creek basin, yards and streets here take on water in heavy summer rain even though the town isn't in a surge zone. Getting to you is simple: 49th St N or Park St N, a few minutes either way.
Block houses, absentee owners, and one square mile of town
I'm an out-of-town landlord. Can you handle this without me there?
Yes. Plenty of our work here is for owners and property managers who never see the unit. We arrange access with the tenant, log daily moisture readings and photos, and send the file to you and the adjuster.
My yard floods but it never gets in the house. Is that a problem?
Standing water against a block wall wicks up through the slab edge, and you'll smell it in a closet before you see it. Cool carpet or swelling baseboards along an exterior wall is worth a meter reading.
