Farmington and the neighboring community of Farmington Hills together form one of western Oakland County’s most established and diverse residential areas – a market that spans from the historic core of Farmington’s walkable downtown with its 1900s-era housing stock to the expansive colonials and custom homes of Farmington Hills’ Golf Manor subdivisions and the lakefront communities near Orchard Lake.
Emergency Restoration Company serves this entire area 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, approximately 30 minutes from our Troy base. The housing stock in this market is one of the most varied in our service area, ranging from Farmington city’s century-old Victorian and craftsman homes with the infrastructure challenges of that age, through mid-century ranches and colonials from the 1950s and 1960s, to the larger custom homes that were built throughout Farmington Hills from the 1970s through the 2000s. Each construction era brings its own characteristic failure modes, and our crews are equipped for all of them.
The main branch of the Rouge River runs through portions of this market, and communities within the river’s watershed experience the same drainage pressures that affect all Rouge River communities during Michigan’s heavy rain events. Additionally, Farmington Hills’ many ponds and detention basins – features of its more recent development – can overflow during extreme precipitation, affecting adjacent properties.
Why Farmington Has Unique Risks
Farmington city’s historic downtown core contains homes dating from the 1880s through 1930s – properties with original plaster walls, old galvanized or cast-iron plumbing, and foundations that pre-date modern drainage standards. Water intrusion in these older structures moves and behaves differently than in modern construction, requiring experienced assessment and careful, monitored drying.
Farmington Hills, which surrounds Farmington city, developed primarily between the 1960s and 1990s. Homes from this era – now between 30 and 60 years old – are entering the period when galvanized plumbing corrodes through, copper lines develop pinhole leaks, and sump pumps fail. The high-value finished basements that are common in Farmington Hills’ larger homes transform routine water events into significant loss situations.
The Rouge River watershed covers this entire market, and communities within it experience recurring drainage pressure during Michigan’s wet springs. The transition from more natural drainage patterns to impervious suburban surfaces across decades of development has accelerated runoff and increased the frequency and severity of local flooding events compared to historical norms.
