Northridge mixes single-family streets with apartment blocks around the university, and the 1994 earthquake that carries its name is still the clearest lesson in how water gets into Valley homes.
24/7 emergency line
(323) 709-0141Quick answer

Northridge
In the single-family parts of Northridge, the calls are slab leaks, garage water heaters and washer hoses, and attic AC overflows in the summer.
Around the university, apartment buildings add leaks that travel between units. A failed toilet supply or shower pan upstairs becomes a stained ceiling downstairs, so every affected unit gets its own record.
Northridge
The magnitude 6.7 Northridge earthquake struck at 4:31 a.m. on January 17, 1994 beneath the Northridge area of the San Fernando Valley. Water trunk lines broke and water surged down some streets, and about 40,000 people were left without water. Inside homes, the same shaking cracked rigid supply lines and toppled water heaters, which is why flexible connectors and strapped heaters are worth the afternoon they take.

Quake water cleanupHow it works here
Call and tell the dispatcher what failed and where. For a supply line or heater, close the valve or the main; in an apartment, tell the manager so they can reach the unit where it started.
The crew extracts water, maps moisture in walls, floors and the slab, removes only what cannot dry and sets equipment, logging readings for you and your insurer.
