About Holladay
Holladay and the eastern part of Millcreek spread across the middle of the east side, with big lots, mature trees and Big Cottonwood Creek running through. The median home in 84117 was built in 1975 and in 84124 in 1966; 61% of homes in 84124 are from before 1980. Owner-occupied ramblers with full basements are the norm, so a single failed supply line can wet two floors. The two ZIPs have 21 flood insurance claims on record.
Homes and water damage in Holladay
Holladay has about 20,273 housing units according to the Census ACS 2020-2024, with a median year built of 1975. The housing here is mixed: 48% built before 1980 and 15% in 2000 or later. That means everything from brick ramblers with basements to newer two-story houses with a water heater over finished space.
Flood claims are rare here: 21 on record in these ZIP codes, 9 since 2015. Nearly every water damage job starts inside the house, with a supply line, a water heater, a frozen pipe or a backed-up drain.
The cold is the same story across the valley. Salt Lake City International Airport averaged 16.4 nights a year at 20°F or colder over 2016-2025, nearly all from December through February, and the benches run colder than the airport. Pipes in exterior walls and garages go first.

Questions
Do you cover all of Holladay?
Yes, including ZIPs 84117, 84124. Your callback company double-checks that they cover your address.
How fast can someone come out?
It depends on the day and how many calls come in after a cold snap or a storm. Say in your request if water is still coming in, or if anyone at home has asthma or a weak immune system. The company will tell you when they can come.
Do I get a price first?
Ask for a written scope and price before work starts. With active water, drying often starts on the first visit; ask what the first day will cost and how drying is billed before you sign.
