What stands in Mid-Cambridge is what stands across much of Cambridge: cambridge took on much of its present character between 1850 and 1900, when streetcar development along the turnpikes filled the city with wood-frame houses and three-deckers around its squares. Water can travel a long way from where it entered before anyone notices it in a Mid-Cambridge property, so we extract standing water, dry the structure to a measured reading and document everything for your insurance claim.

What we are called to in Mid-Cambridge is rarely dramatic. A slow supply-line leak under a sink, a water heater letting go, a drain that backs up in the first heavy rain — damage that has usually been spreading for hours before anyone smells it.

What We Look for in Mid-Cambridge

Local conditions and the building faults behind most of the calls we take here.

  • Between 1850 and 1900 the city built out along its streetcar lines, leaving dense wood-frame houses and three-deckers with original plumbing.
  • Cambridge and the MWRA share combined sewers, so heavy rain can send sewage and stormwater back up through basement floor drains.
  • Sloped lots around Mid-Cambridge push surface water toward foundations and bulkheads, so a blocked outside drain becomes a wet floor inside within a single storm.
  • Roof and ice-dam leaks in Mid-Cambridge usually show up first as a stain on an upstairs ceiling, and only later as sodden insulation and a wet wall cavity.
  • Appliance failures — washing machines, dishwashers and water heaters — are behind a large share of the sudden indoor floods we are called to in Mid-Cambridge.
  • Tree roots in a lateral line cause slow drains that back up in the first heavy rain across Mid-Cambridge, and the water that comes back is not clean.
