Quick answer
Water damage cleanup and repair in Rathdrum is handled from our Spokane Valley shop, answered 24/7. Rathdrum calls split between newer homes with water heater, appliance and bathroom leaks, and rural homes on the surrounding prairie with frozen lines, wells and septic backups.
What water damage looks like in Rathdrum
Rathdrum had 9,211 residents at the 2020 census, up 34.9% from 6,826 in 2010, and it kept going: Rathdrum and Post Falls each grew about 10% between 2020 and 2021. Most of that growth is new subdivisions, so a typical in-town call is a newer home with a water heater in the garage, an upstairs laundry or a supply line behind a refrigerator.
Outside town the calls change. Homes on acreage around Rathdrum often run on wells and septic systems, with long runs of pipe to outbuildings, and that is where frozen lines and septic backups come from. On those calls, the first step is the well pump breaker, not the meter.
