Water Damage Restoration in Canaan
Water Damage in Your Canaan Property?
KPM Restoration provides 24/7 water damage restoration throughout Canaan, the town nearly everyone here calls Falls Village. The village core, anchored by the D.M. Hunt Library and St. Patrick's Church inside the Falls Village Historic District, sits where U.S. Route 7 follows the Housatonic River along the town's western edge. The river bottom near the Great Falls and the low ground around the Hollenbeck River and Robbins Swamp flood repeatedly during heavy rain and snowmelt, while the Salmon Kill can rise fast where it meets the Housatonic near Housatonic Valley Regional High School. From 18th-century farmhouses to the railroad-era buildings of the historic district, we know how water moves through Falls Village properties.

What to Know
Understanding Water Damage
Fast Water Extraction and Structural Drying
Standing water causes more damage every hour it sits. We arrive with industrial pumps, water extractors, and commercial dehumidifiers to remove water fast and begin structural drying immediately. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging to find hidden water behind walls, under floors, and in wall cavities.
Housatonic River Flooding and Burst Pipes in Older Homes
Falls Village has flooded before. The 1955 twin-hurricane floods dropped 16.83 inches of rain and pushed the Housatonic to record levels through the river corridor, and Tropical Storm Irene flooded the river again at the Falls Village gauge in 2011. Properties along the river bottom, the low land near Robbins Swamp and the Hollenbeck River, and the reach where the Salmon Kill enters the Housatonic remain the most exposed during major events. Older housing carries its own risk: the 18th-century colonial farmhouses dating to the 1730s and 1740s often sit on fieldstone or dry-laid stone foundations that let water infiltrate, the mill and ironworks-era structures near the Great Falls can have rubble or mixed-masonry foundations, and the seasonal cottages and camps up along the Appalachian Trail ridgeline are prone to frozen and burst pipes from freeze-thaw. The railroad-era buildings in the historic district run older plumbing chases that fail without much warning. Our IICRC-certified technicians respond within 60 minutes, 24/7.
