Chelsea's high water table is no accident of geography, the town sits amid the lakes and rivers of the Waterloo Recreation Area, with Pierce Lake and Cavanaugh Lake feeding groundwater that presses against basement walls. When cold winters drive ice dams and burst pipes, the century-old brick homes near the Downtown Chelsea Historic District take the hit hardest.
Crews dispatched by Millers Restoration of Ann Arbor extract water and set drying equipment sized for the thick masonry along the Main Street corridor and out toward the Sylvan Township area. Every cavity is monitored until moisture readings return to normal, not just until floors look dry.
Family-owned since 1974, Millers has restored Washtenaw County homes through decades of freeze-thaw seasons, carrying a water loss near the Chelsea District Library from extraction and structural drying all the way through the rebuild.

Millers responds to water damage throughout Chelsea and Washtenaw County — including these neighborhoods and areas:
Chelsea's downtown holds many century-old brick buildings, and its setting near the lakes and rivers of the Waterloo Recreation Area keeps water tables high. That combination brings basement seepage and, in winter, ice dams that push meltwater into walls. We locate the entry point, extract the water, and dry the structure.
We staff our emergency line at 1-800-645-5377 at all hours because water spreads quickly through flooring and drywall. Whether the call is from the Main Street corridor or the Cavanaugh Lake area, prompt extraction limits how far the damage reaches. Call us first, then shut off the water if you safely can.
Yes. During cold Chelsea winters, ice dams form at the roof edge and force meltwater under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls. That water can soak insulation and drywall before it becomes visible. We dry the affected areas and monitor moisture until readings return to normal.
Homes near Pierce Lake and Cavanaugh Lake sit over high water tables, so foundations take on seepage during wet stretches and spring melt. Standing water needs extraction and thorough drying to protect framing and flooring. We document the loss for your insurance and dry the space completely.
