Signs Your Funny River Home Needs Flood Cleanup

• Stains spreading on the walls — Water running down inside the wall cavity.

Why Funny River Homes Flood

The Funny River drains into the Kenai River, and the snowmelt in the spring fills both rivers fast. The winter freeze bursts unprotected pipes. The damp air then keeps the materials wet longer, making the damage worse.
