The Greenbelt Floods Before the River Does

Eagle grew up along the Boise River, and its Greenbelt is one of the first places to flood when the river rises. Local reports have noted flooding on parts of the Eagle Greenbelt even before the river reaches its official flood stage of 7,000 cubic feet per second at Glenwood Bridge, and in 2017 high water closed Eagle Island State Park. Most Eagle houses sit well away from the water. Many of the larger custom homes have basements, though, and a basement brings its own risks: window wells, a sump if there is one, and finished rooms where water hides. What you see is often water at a basement window or along a basement wall in spring.

Eagle Water, Season by Season

Spring brings snowmelt into window wells and, in big years, a high river. Summer irrigation keeps the ground wet. Winter freezes lines in garages and outside walls, and in a big house those lines can run a long way from the main shutoff.

When Eagle Calls

A call from Eagle to (208) 908-0878 goes to a restoration company that already works this part of the Treasure Valley. Those companies take on restoration and mitigation, ceiling damage, wet walls, floors and carpet, crawlspace and basement water and burst pipes. What the work costs and when it starts get settled after someone has seen the house, between you and that company.
