Restoration help in Molalla
Molalla is the south edge of the metro's coverage, a timber and farm town on the Molalla River with a compact old core and rural properties spreading into the foothills. The river runs through town; the water table and the weather both run higher here than in the valley suburbs.
The buildings
The core is older wood-frame on basements and crawlspaces, with postwar and newer around it. Out the edges it's rural: manufactured housing, farmhouses, outbuildings, and wells instead of city supply.
The water
River-adjacent ground takes water in wet years, and the low spots hold it through the season. The plumbing and drainage of older small-town homes, plus the freeze events the foothills get, round out the list.
The callback
Town-grid or rural-edge is the first question, and the second is what kind of system the water came from. A farmhouse supply break and a core-neighborhood basement backup scope differently.
Coverage
The town core, the river-adjacent properties, the newer edges, and the rural properties inside city limits.
