Water Damage Restoration in Glen, NH
Glen is the village of Bartlett at the junction of Route 16 and Route 302, where the Ellis River comes down from Pinkham Notch and meets the Saco. Story Land has drawn families to the village since 1954, and the motels, inns, and vacation homes around it are the village's housing, along with 1800s farmhouses on the old roads and 1980s and 1990s condominiums and second homes on the slopes toward Jackson and Bartlett, on wells and septic.
Two rivers meet at Glen, and both come up fast. Tropical Storm Irene on August 28, 2011 sent the Ellis and the Saco over their banks, flooded Route 302 through the village, and put water into cellars and first floors near the confluence. The December 18, 2023 storm, with more than six inches of rain in Jackson on top of the snowpack, did it again and set near-record levels on the Saco. The vacation homes have the winter problem. Empty from Sunday to Friday or from ski season to summer, a house with the water on splits a pipe on a night like February 3, 2023 and runs into the floors below until someone arrives.
We connect Glen homeowners by phone with an independent local water damage provider. The provider looks at the house and sets the scope.
Glen water damage, where the rivers meet
A cellar that took Ellis or Saco water is a basement flooding cleanup, and river water carries silt that changes what can be saved. A vacation home with a pipe that ran for days is a frozen pipe cleanup, and the crew starts with when the house was last seen. A supply line that let go under pressure in an occupied house is a burst pipe water damage call once the well pump is off.
