Water Damage Restoration in Mentone, CA

Mentone is the unincorporated community east of Redlands where the valley ends and Mill Creek Canyon begins. It was laid out in the 1880s as a resort and citrus town, and the housing today is ranch homes from the 1950s through the 1970s on large lots along Mentone Boulevard, older farmhouses on the groves toward Crafton, and a few newer tracts near Redlands.

The wash is the story here. Mill Creek comes out of the canyon in a wide, boulder-strewn channel that the community was built beside, and it has run high in every major flood since 1862. The Santa Ana River meets it just north of town below Seven Oaks Dam. Homes on the low side of Mentone Boulevard sit closest to that ground, and a monsoon cell over the canyon can put water in the streets in an hour.

Mentone water damage, beside the wash

A storm that pushed water and grit through a garage is water extraction, with the mud treated as contaminated. A tank that let go in a hot garage is water heater leak cleanup, and the drying that follows either one is structural drying by the readings.

Where to call in Mentone

The valley's groundwater basin, which Mentone's wells and lines draw on, is recharged in part by the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District, the regional agency that has brought water into the basin since 1954 and tracks Santa Ana River flows below Seven Oaks Dam. Because Mentone is unincorporated, rebuild permits go through San Bernardino County Land Use Services.
