Timberlane sits in the Algiers section of Orleans Parish with a mix of mid-century raised homes and slab-on-grade houses along streets like Timberlane Drive and Woodland Drive. Frequent heavy rains and hurricane remnants push water toward low spots where drainage canals run behind many lots. Our crews reach these blocks from the Prytania Street office within the posted hours, bringing equipment sized for the tight driveways and fenced backyards common here.
Homes in Timberlane often have plaster walls and older HVAC systems that trap moisture after flooding. We focus on drying under raised floors and inside wall cavities before mold sets in during the humid months. Nearby Metairie and Harvey crews sometimes cross the river to assist when multiple homes on the same block are affected, keeping response times short for local residents.
Access routes such as General De Gaulle Drive and the nearby levee roads can close during storms, so we stage equipment on higher ground in advance. This planning lets us start extraction the same day water enters a Timberlane property.

Water Damage Restoration in Timberlane — Local Notes
- •Many Timberlane lots sit behind drainage canals that back up during prolonged rain, sending water under raised homes and into crawlspaces.
- •Older plaster walls in neighborhood houses require slower drying to avoid cracking, unlike newer drywall found in some Metairie subdivisions.
- •Hurricane winds often drive water through roof vents on single-story homes along Timberlane Boulevard before street flooding begins.
- •Tight side yards and fenced rear access mean our trucks park on the street and run hoses across lawns, a common setup on these blocks.
