South Los Angeles
Older homes, older systems
Most South LA houses were built long before today's plumbing materials. Galvanized supply lines rust from the inside. Clay and cast iron sewer lines crack and back up. Water heaters tucked into closets fail into hallways and bedrooms.
On the hillside streets around Baldwin Hills, heavy storms add another kind of call: mud and runoff pushed against the back of the house. Our guide to the first steps in a sewage backup covers what to do while you wait.
South Los Angeles
Little new housing, big storms
In South LA, less than 20 percent of the housing stock was built in the last 50 years. So most homes are running on decades-old pipes, drains and roofs. Storms test them hard: in the February 2024 atmospheric river, mudflow pushed into a home in Baldwin Hills while mudslides forced evacuations in Beverly Crest. Older systems and the occasional big storm explain most of what we see across South Los Angeles.

How a South LA call runs
Call and tell the dispatcher what failed. For a burst pipe, close the main valve. For a sewer backup, stop running water anywhere in the house until the line is cleared.
The crew extracts water, removes anything sewage or storm water reached, maps moisture in walls and floors and sets drying equipment, logging every reading for you and your insurer.
