Water Damage Restoration in Lake Tahoe

If it is safe, stop the source of the water and avoid electrical hazards or contaminated standing water. Then call RestoPros of Reno-Tahoe. We’ll inspect the damage, identify hidden moisture, begin water extraction when needed, and set up professional drying equipment to limit further damage.

Lake Tahoe’s cold winters and repeated freeze-thaw cycles can put plumbing at risk, particularly in exterior walls, crawl spaces, garages, and vacation homes where temperatures may be set lower while the property is empty. Frozen water expands inside pipes and can cause them to split, sometimes releasing large amounts of water once temperatures rise.

Yes. Heavy Sierra snowpack followed by warming temperatures can produce significant snowmelt and runoff. Water can enter basements, crawl spaces, lower levels, and other vulnerable areas, especially where drainage is poor or snow has accumulated against the structure.

Ice dams form when melting roof snow refreezes near colder roof edges. Additional meltwater can collect behind the ice and find its way beneath roofing materials, potentially causing moisture damage to attics, ceilings, walls, and insulation.

Our technicians perform a moisture inspection and can use tools such as moisture meters and thermal imaging to help identify moisture that isn’t visible from the surface. This helps determine where drying equipment should be placed and whether materials such as drywall, flooring, or insulation have been affected.

Yes. We provide professional sewage cleanup for backups and contaminated water losses. Depending on the damage, restoration may include removal of contaminated materials, cleaning, sanitization, structural drying, antimicrobial treatment when appropriate, and odor removal.
