Water Damage Restoration in Mendota Heights, MN
Mendota Heights became a city in 1956, and it grew slowly by south-metro standards, from about 6,500 people in 1970 to under 12,000 in 2020. That slow growth left it with large lots, mature oaks, and houses from every decade since the 1950s: ramblers and walkouts on the bluffs above the Minnesota River, 1970s and 1980s two-stories along Dodd Road, and newer builds filling in the last open ground. The city sits at about 912 feet, with the river flats and old Mendota below it to the north.
Bluff lots drain fast on the surface and slowly underneath, and a walkout wall cut into a hillside above the river is a wall that weeps every April.

Mendota Heights water damage above the river
A walkout family room that took groundwater along the hillside wall during the thaw is a basement flooding cleanup. A brown ring on an upstairs ceiling in February under a foot of eave ice is roof leak and ice dam water damage. A pump that could not keep up in a summer storm is a sump pump failure cleanup.
Where the two rivers meet below town
Old Mendota sits on the flats at the confluence, where the Sibley Historic Site keeps four limestone buildings from the fur-trade years between 1825 and 1853, and those flats still go under in a big spring. The Big Rivers Regional Trail runs the old railroad bed along the bluff from Eagan through Mendota Heights to Lilydale, looking down on the confluence. Rebuild permits go through the City of Mendota Heights.
