Sepulveda Dam, built and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, stores flood runoff from a 152-square-mile drainage area and releases it to the Los Angeles River at a rate the channel can carry. When storms are heavy, low streets near the basin can still take on water, and runoff can reach garages and ground floors.
Water from a broken main is a separate risk. A 6-inch main near Haskell Avenue and Leadwell Street once buckled the street and cut water to about 30 customers, and mains can fail without warning. We extract standing water, find hidden moisture in slab-level floors and walls with meters and thermal imaging, and dry to verified targets.
How We Handle Losses in Van Nuys
Van Nuys has a mix of residential streets, airport-area businesses and hospital-adjacent properties. Storm runoff near the Sepulveda Basin, water main breaks, slab leaks, water heater failures and sewer backups are the losses we prepare for here.
Mold usually follows water in Van Nuys homes. A slow leak inside a wall, an air conditioning drain line that backs up, or a room that stays damp through a humid season can grow mold within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove the water used to put the fire out, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Van Nuys usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
