North Hollywood's Trusted Water Damage Restoration Team

North Hollywood blends creative energy with quiet residential streets, from the theaters and galleries of the NoHo Arts District to the postwar bungalows and courtyard apartments along Burbank, Chandler, and Lankershim Boulevards. Our headquarters at 14435 Sherman Way in Van Nuys is just minutes west, so when a pipe bursts or a storm floods your property here, our crews can be at your door fast, typically within the hour for emergencies.

Cause 01

Aging Plumbing

Aging plumbing in the neighborhood's mid-century homes.

Cause 02

Appliance Failures

Water-heater ruptures tucked into garages and closets, plus washing-machine and dishwasher supply-line failures.

Cause 03

Slab Leaks

Leaks beneath older concrete foundations.

Cause 04

Storm Runoff

Runoff that pools along low-lying streets during heavy winter rain.

Whatever the cause, our approach is the same: rapid extraction, careful moisture mapping, and verified structural drying that protects both your property and your insurance claim.

What We Do

Our Water Damage Restoration Services

From the first emergency call to the final walkthrough, every step is handled by one family-owned team.

  1. 1

    24/7 Emergency Water Extraction

    Standing water does not wait, and neither do we. Our North Hollywood crews arrive around the clock with truck-mounted extractors and submersible pumps to pull water from homes, studios, and commercial spaces before it soaks deeper into floors and walls.

  2. 2

    Moisture Detection & Mapping

    Infrared cameras and calibrated moisture meters find water hiding behind drywall, beneath tile and wood floors, and inside wall cavities, so no damp pocket is left behind to feed mold or weaken framing.

  3. 3

    Structural Drying & Dehumidification

    Commercial air movers and low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers dry framing, drywall, subfloors, and slab foundations to verified moisture targets. We log readings throughout so your property is proven dry, not just surface dry.

  4. 4

    Mold Prevention & Remediation

    Thorough drying is the best mold defense. If growth has already begun in damp wall cavities or under flooring, our IICRC-trained technicians contain the area, remove contaminated materials safely, and treat the space so mold cannot return.

  5. 5

    Contents & Belongings Care

    Furniture, rugs, electronics, and treasured keepsakes are moved to safety, cleaned, dried, and stored while your property is restored, then returned to you when the work is complete.

  6. 6

    Repair & Reconstruction

    As a licensed general contractor (CSLB #1096150), we rebuild what water destroyed: drywall, flooring, cabinetry, paint, and trim, so you deal with one company from the first emergency call to the final walkthrough.

Common Questions

Water Damage FAQs

Every hour counts. Our team answers 24/7.

1-800-571-5021
How quickly can you reach my North Hollywood property?

Because we are based in nearby Van Nuys, our crews typically reach North Hollywood within the hour for emergencies, day or night. For active leaks or flooding, call 1-800-571-5021 right away so we can dispatch while you shut off the water source.

What should I do before your crew arrives?

If it is safe, stop the water at its source and switch off electricity in the affected area. Move valuables and electronics to dry ground, and stay out of standing water where electrical hazards may exist. Leave the rest to us. We handle the extraction, drying, and repairs.

Will my insurance cover the restoration?

Most homeowner and commercial policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as burst pipes or appliance failures, while excluding gradual leaks and floodwater. We document everything with photos and moisture readings and work directly with your adjuster to support your claim.

Can you save my hardwood floors and original features?

Often, yes. Many North Hollywood bungalows have wood floors worth preserving. With fast extraction, targeted drying mats, and controlled dehumidification, wood floors can frequently be dried in place and refinished rather than torn out. The key is speed: the sooner we arrive, the more we can save.
