The October 1, 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquake did its most severe damage in Uptown Whittier, where unreinforced masonry buildings were concentrated. In the February 4 to 6, 2024 storm, NBC Los Angeles listed 5.59 inches of rain in Whittier.
Heavy rain finds weak points: roof flashing, window frames, gutters and drains. If a leak shows up on a ceiling, stop the water at its source if you can, move belongings and call us before the drywall sags or the carpet starts to smell. Indoors, slab leaks, supply lines and water heaters need the same quick drying, and we verify with moisture meters before we pack up.
How We Handle Losses in Whittier
Whittier includes a historic commercial district, a college campus, schools and long residential streets, so losses range from a single leaking fixture to water in a multi-tenant building. Storm leaks, plumbing failures, fire and smoke, and the mold that can follow wet materials are the losses we prepare for, with commercial service available alongside homes.
Mold usually follows water in Whittier 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 Whittier 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.
