Casas Adobes takes its name from a 1940s subdivision near Ina and Oracle Roads and has grown into the largest unincorporated community in Pima County, about 70,000 people on the northwest side between the Rillito River and the Oro Valley line. The core is 1950s through 1970s: burnt adobe and slump block ranches on half-acre lots, flat roofs behind parapets, coolers and later package AC units on top, and the original copper in the slab. Around the edges, 1980s and 1990s stucco subdivisions climbed the bajada toward the Catalinas, and the Cañada del Oro and the Rillito meet at the community's southeast corner.
Hard water and sixty-year-old copper make slab leaks a weekly event here. The flat roofs are on their fifth or sixth coating, and a scupper plugged with mesquite litter in the first storm of July turns a roof section into a pond above a bedroom.
This site routes Casas Adobes homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider reads the block and the slab with a meter before the scope goes on paper.
A warm streak on the terrazzo in a 1962 ranch is leak detection before anyone opens the slab, and a reroute overhead is often the answer. A ceiling stain under a ponded parapet section after a monsoon cell is roof leak water damage, and the roofer and the drying crew work the same day. A wet block wall that still smells like a cellar a week after the floor dried is a structural drying job.
Metro Water District serves most of Casas Adobes from its own wells and is the utility to call when the house valve has seized and the meter needs shutting. Tohono Chul, the 49-acre desert garden at Ina and Paseo del Norte, sits in the middle of the community and keeps a rain gauge that the neighbors watch during monsoon.
Call (520) 422-6139 and tell us where the block is damp. We route the call to a local water damage provider serving Casas Adobes.
Standing water pulled off saltillo, tile, and carpet on a Tucson slab before it wicks into block walls and the bottom of the drywall.
