Water Damage Restoration in Spring Lake Park, MN

Spring Lake Park is two square miles wedged between Blaine, Fridley, Mounds View, and Coon Rapids, with Highway 65 running up the middle and about 7,200 people living on either side of it. Almost all of its housing went up in the 1950s and early 1960s: one-story ramblers on small sandy lots, block basements, a floor drain, and copper supply lines through the rim joist. Spring Lake itself is a shallow pond on the west side, and the city shares the flat sand and shallow groundwater of the rest of the Coon Creek watershed.

A 1956 rambler here has had three or four owners and at least one basement finish, usually paneling on furring strips against the block with carpet glued to the slab. The pit, if there is one, was cut in later.

This site puts Spring Lake Park homeowners through by phone to an independent local water damage provider. The provider meters the block before anything comes off it.

Water through the block during a March thaw is a basement flooding cleanup, and glued-down carpet decides whether the slab can dry with the floor in place. A hose bib line in the garage wall that split in a deep freeze is a frozen pipe cleanup. A floor drain that backed up when the clay service line clogged is a sewer backup cleanup.

A small city with its own permit desk and its own school district

The City of Spring Lake Park issues its own building permits through its code enforcement office, so a basement rebuild here does not go through Blaine even though the city line runs down the middle of some blocks. The town also anchors Spring Lake Park Schools, District 16, which reaches into south Blaine and Fridley, and a finished basement bedroom for a student in that district gets scoped as living space, not storage.

Call (763) 297-2728 and say how much of the basement floor is under water. An independent local water damage provider serving Spring Lake Park takes it from there.
