Protecting Lake Oswego Properties Since 1997

Lake Oswego’s mix of mid-century lakefront homes, hillside estates along Stafford Road, and busy Boones Ferry Road commercial corridors creates a unique set of water-damage challenges. Properties near Oswego Lake and along First Creek are especially vulnerable to moisture intrusion and slab flooding during heavy Pacific Northwest rains, and older construction means crawlspaces and subfloor framing that can absorb moisture faster than modern builds. When water gets into a 1960s lakeside ranch or a multifamily complex in the Lake Grove neighborhood, every hour without professional extraction adds cost.

Since 1997, Lovett Restoration has served the greater Portland metro area, including the Lake Oswego market. Our crews respond 24/7, deploying industrial dehumidifiers, high-volume extraction equipment, and HEPA-filtered containment systems tailored to each property type, from single-family residential to the mixed-use retail and condo buildings along State Street and A Avenue. We strictly limit our scope to restoration, extraction, and sanitation. We do not perform drywall, painting, or reconstruction, which means our assessment has zero conflict of interest and your chosen repair contractor can begin immediately after our work is done.

CEO Gary Cosmer brought Lean practices and Toyota Production System principles to Lovett when he joined in 2018. On every Lake Oswego job, that translates to less wasted time on site, faster drying cycles, and detailed documentation to support your insurance claim process, all backed by our 1-year workmanship warranty.

The Lovett Difference

Why Lake Oswego Property Owners Choose Lovett

Founded in 1997 by Dale Lovett with one excavator and a dump truck, Lovett has grown into a four-division operation under CEO Gary Cosmer (Partner since 2018). Pacific Northwest properties battle persistent moisture, seasonal flooding, and year-round mold pressure. Every Lake Oswego job runs on Toyota Production System and Six Sigma discipline, fast mobilization, tight scope, no surprises.

Restoration Only, No Conflicts

Because we never perform structural repairs, our damage assessment has zero financial incentive to overstate scope. We get in, stop the damage, sanitize the site, and hand it back to your chosen contractor, clean and ready. No inflated rebuild contracts.

Total Efficiency, Lean Practices

Our CEO Gary Cosmer introduced Toyota Production System and Six Sigma principles to every restoration job. For Lake Oswego property managers and homeowners, that means faster drying cycles, less equipment idle time, and detailed documentation for insurance, all minimizing your downtime.

Licensed, Warranted, Accountable

Oregon CCB #125507. Fully insured for commercial and residential restoration work throughout the Portland metro. Every Lake Oswego project is backed by our 1-year workmanship warranty, if something is not right, we make it right with no runaround.

What to Expect

Our Restoration Process

From your first call to final handoff, a clear, efficient process built to minimize damage and get Lake Oswego properties ready for repair crews fast.

01

24/7 Emergency Dispatch

Call (971) 200-5476 any time. Our dispatch team confirms your Lake Oswego address and mobilizes the nearest available crew immediately, no waiting until business hours.

02

Assessment & Containment Setup

On arrival, our technicians assess the scope of damage, identify moisture pathways, and immediately establish containment. Physical barriers and negative air pressure systems go up first to protect unaffected areas of your property.

03

Water Extraction & Structural Drying

Industrial pumps remove standing water rapidly. We then deploy truck-mounted and portable dehumidifiers and air movers to pull moisture from framing, subfloors, and building materials, monitored with daily moisture readings until the structure reaches dry standard.

04

Sanitation & Mold Prevention

Once dry, we thoroughly sanitize all affected surfaces with EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments, eliminating bacteria and inhibiting mold growth, critical given Lake Oswego’s damp Pacific Northwest climate and the hidden moisture in older crawlspace construction.

05

Documentation & Handoff

We provide complete photo documentation, moisture logs, and a written scope of work, everything your insurance adjuster needs and your repair contractor needs to start work without delay. Your property is ready for the next phase.

What Lake Oswego Clients Say

Family-owned since 1997. Real reviews from Portland Metro and SW Washington property owners and managers.

“Shawn and his crew were very professional and did a great job. My husband was sick and taken to the hospital while Shawn’s crew was working on our water leak and flooded basement. Shawn kept me informed daily, and asked every day how my husband was doing. He gave me real encouragement.”

“Zac and his team were fantastic. They explained every step of restoration and the costs therein. They were professional, quick, courteous, and fun to work with. Zac had worked with my property management company and they couldn’t recommend him more highly to me. I would recommend Zac to anyone.”

“Brandon was a lifesaver. In two hours he figured out what our rental maintenance team and another contractor couldn’t. He cleaned up the mess, reduced the active leaking, and kept us updated the whole time. We also worked with Tom from mitigation, who was just as easy to work with. We’d recommend this company without hesitation.”
