Water damage & mold in Redlands: what to know
Older Redlands homes need careful handling after a leak. Many sit on raised foundations, so water can spread under the floor for weeks before it shows, and lath-and-plaster walls, old-growth wood floors and original trim are worth saving when possible. Homes built before 1978 may also have lead-based paint, which changes how damaged materials are removed.
The south and east edges of the city meet open hills and canyons. The 2017 Palmer Fire triggered evacuations in Redlands, and the 2020 Bruder Fire near San Timoteo Canyon forced evacuations for about 50 homes. Smoke from fires in the nearby mountains also drifts across the city on Santa Ana winds. Our IICRC-certified team handles water extraction, structural drying, mold remediation and smoke cleanup, and documents everything for your adjuster.

Redlands restoration FAQs
Can you dry the crawlspace under my older Redlands house?+
Yes. The crawlspace has to be dried along with the subfloor and framing above it, or moisture stays trapped and mold can follow. We confirm the wood is dry with moisture meters before we finish.
My home is near the south Redlands hills. What should I do during fire season?+
Follow city and county evacuation alerts first. At home, know where your water and power shutoffs are, keep vents and gutters clear of debris, and photograph your home's condition so you have a baseline for insurance. If smoke or ash gets inside, call us before it sets into fabrics and ducts.
Will you work with my insurance company?+
We document the damage with photos, moisture readings and a written scope of work, and we can work directly with your adjuster. Coverage decisions are up to your insurer, so we can't promise a claim will be approved.
