24/7 emergency line
(323) 709-0141Quick answer
We handle hillside mud and storm water, roof leaks, leaks between apartment units and mold in Hollywood and the Hollywood Hills. Crews come from our Little Tokyo office at any hour. Tell dispatch whether you are in the hills or on the flats so the crew brings the right equipment.
Hollywood
On the flats, older apartment buildings and bungalow courts share walls, roofs and drains. A leak in one unit or a clogged roof drain usually reaches the neighbors. So every affected unit gets its own record.
Up in the Hollywood Hills, houses are built on steep lots with retaining walls and narrow roads. In a big storm, mud and runoff come down toward garages, decks and lower rooms.
Hollywood
In the February 2024 atmospheric river, about 1.4 million people in the Los Angeles area, including the Hollywood Hills, were under a flash flood warning. Mud and debris flows across the Hollywood Hills damaged homes and forced evacuations, while the Los Angeles Fire Department handled more than 130 flooding incidents and 49 mud and debris flows citywide. Down on the flats in Hollywood, the same rain found older roofs and drains.

Removing hidden moldHow it works here
Call and say whether you are in the hills or on the flats, and where the water is coming from. On hillside lots, stay clear of walls or slopes with mud against them and tell us about parking.
The crew removes mud or extracts water, reads walls, floors and ceilings in every affected unit or level, removes only what cannot dry and sets equipment, logging readings until it is dry.
