Water damage in Martha Lake
Martha Lake is an unincorporated community of roughly 21,000 people northeast of Lynnwood and west of Mill Creek, named for the small lake at its center. Since it is unincorporated, Snohomish County handles roads and permits, and many homes have Lynnwood mailing addresses in the 98087 ZIP code.
The housing is a mix of split-levels, two-story houses, townhomes and newer subdivisions, and the water calls follow that mix. Supply line and washer hose failures, water heaters that let go in a garage or closet, and upstairs leaks that come through a ceiling make up most of them. Lots near the lake and the low spots along the area's small creeks can also see wet crawl spaces during long winter rains.
Whatever started it, the company you reach will stop the water, get it out, and set up drying before mold has a chance.
