North Hills up close
FEMA's National Risk Index puts North Hills' yearly inland flood loss at $274 per $100,000 of building value, well above the county's $164, even though NOAA climate normals count only 3 days a year with an inch of rain or more. The neighborhood lies 11 miles from Burbank, on flat Valley ground where storm water has few places to go.
Residents here stay put. Only 6% of households moved in since 2021, by Census figures, and 51% of homes are rented, many in the 41% of homes in buildings with 5 or more units. Housing is largely postwar, with 67% built before 1980 but only 4% before 1950, so supply lines, water heaters and slab plumbing are often decades old. Only 0.5% of Los Angeles County homes carry federal flood insurance, and a renter's policy covers belongings while the building owner covers the structure. North Hills calls are taken with the Burbank area, and when a slab leak dampens carpet, wet carpet drying has to reach the pad and the concrete.

Before the crew arrives in North Hills
Water in a North Hills apartment rarely stays in one unit, so call the manager while you close the valve under the sink, behind the toilet or behind the washer. With 41% of homes here in buildings with 5 or more units, the main is often in a locked room, and the unit below may already be wet. Switch off the breakers for any room where water has reached outlets or light fixtures. Photograph the source, the floor and the ceiling below before cleanup, and note the time. Move rugs, electronics and papers to a dry spot. When you call about water removal, ask how soon the drying can begin, since water mitigation should start within the 24 to 48 hours before mold can grow. The call is answered 24/7.
