Water damage & mold help in Davenport, IA
Davenport sits on the Mississippi River in the Quad Cities and is famous for having no permanent floodwall. The river flooded downtown in 1965, 1993, 2008 and 2019, when a temporary barrier failed. Cold winters, heavy rain and older homes with basements add frozen pipes and wet basements.
