Homes and water damage in Mesa

Mesa is the East Valley's largest city and one of the biggest in Arizona. West and central Mesa near downtown have homes from the 1940s through the 1970s, many with flat roof sections and original copper or galvanized plumbing. Dobson Ranch and much of central Mesa filled in during the 1970s and 1980s. East Mesa — Red Mountain, Las Sendas, Superstition Springs — is mostly 1990s and 2000s, and Eastmark near the old General Motors proving ground site is still building. Mesa also has a very large number of 55-plus communities and manufactured-home and RV parks, many full of winter visitors.

Older homes are prone to slab leaks and aging galvanized pipes. Evaporative coolers are still common in west and central Mesa. East Mesa homes often have attic water lines and air handlers. Manufactured homes and park models are vulnerable to supply-line leaks under the floor that spread in the belly insulation.
