Water Damage Restoration in Blenman-Elm, AZ

Blenman-Elm is the midtown neighborhood between Campbell and Country Club, Grant and Speedway, that filled in from the 1920s through the 1950s as Tucson grew east from the university. The early streets near Campbell are brick and stucco bungalows on raised floors; the postwar blocks toward Country Club are the first generation of Tucson slab ranches, burnt adobe and slump block with low-pitched or flat roofs, carports, and copper set in the concrete. Tucson Medical Center, which began as the Desert Sanatorium in 1927, anchors the neighborhood's northeast corner, and a good share of the houses belong to the doctors and nurses who work there.

Two housing eras mean two water problems on the same block. The bungalows hide water in the crawl space; the ranches spread it across the slab and up the block. Both carry roofs with parapet sections and canales, and the 1950s coolers on the ranches are often still the original style.

Blenman-Elm water damage across two generations of midtown houses

A soft floorboard and a musty smell in a 1928 bungalow is a water extraction job that starts under the house. A warm streak on the terrazzo in a 1954 slab ranch is leak detection, and the copper is old enough that a reroute is on the table. A ceiling bowing under a cooler pan after a stuck float is ceiling water damage repair.

The hospital on Blenman-Elm's corner

Tucson Medical Center on Grant Road is the neighborhood's largest landmark and employer, and its campus is the reference point most crews use when they are looking for a house on the east side of the district. Blenman-Elm is inside the city, so rebuild permits go through Tucson Planning and Development Services.
