Water Damage Restoration in Lake Elsinore, CA
Lake Elsinore is the largest natural lake in Southern California, and the town built around it has learned the hard way that the lake does not stay put. The 1880s resort town along Main Street and the 1920s to 1950s cottages in Lakeland Village and Country Club Heights sit close to the water. The 1990s and 2000s tracts in Tuscany Hills, Canyon Hills, and Rosetta Canyon climb the slopes above it. The population has grown from 18,000 in 1990 to about 70,000.
In February 1980 the lake rose more than 20 feet after two months of storms, flooded hundreds of homes and businesses on the low side of town, and did not drain for months. The San Jacinto River feeds it from the east and the outlet channel to Temescal Wash was rebuilt afterward. The January 1993 storms brought it up again, and the February 2024 atmospheric river put water across Lakeshore Drive.

Lake Elsinore water damage, lakeside and hillside
Lake and street water in a Lakeland Village cottage after a storm is storm flood cleanup, and the crew treats it as contaminated. A warm floor in a 1960s slab house near the lake is a leak detection call. Wind off the lake that lifted tile on a Tuscany Hills roof before a storm is roof leak water damage.
The city desk and the water district in Lake Elsinore
Rebuild permits go through the City of Lake Elsinore, which also hands out sandbags from the Public Works yard when a storm is coming. Water and sewer come from the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District, which also manages the lake level and can shut a meter when the house valve fails.
