  • The oldest structure in the area is a water tower built in 1926.Source en.wikipedia.org

Water Damage in Enterprise Homes

This is the newest big piece of the valley. Census estimates put the median home in the Enterprise CDP at 2007, and only about 3% of homes were built before 1980. Newer homes mean PEX lines, plastic supply connectors and first or second water heaters, and a failed fitting can soak a slab home fast.

  • Know where the shutoff is on each toilet and under each sink.
  • Tank water heaters last 6 to 12 years per InterNACHI. Many here are reaching that now.
  • Permits go to the Clark County Building Department.

Storms and Runoff Near Enterprise

  • The Las Vegas Valley is a basin with a single outlet, the Las Vegas Wash, so rain runoff drains to the east side of the valley and on to Lake Mead.Source en.wikipedia.org
  • Rain over the mountains around the valley can flood the valley floor as it runs off, and more hardscape as the valley grew has added to that runoff.Source en.wikipedia.org

Storm water that ran over the ground is Category 3 water. It needs cleaning and often removal of soaked materials, not just fans. See flood cleanup and the live storm tracker.
