Water Damage in Burbank

Burbank is its own city, with its own water utility, Burbank Water and Power, and its own building department. It runs from the Media District and the studios to Magnolia Park, downtown, Hollywood Burbank Airport and neighborhoods climbing into the Verdugo Mountains.

Many Burbank homes are pre-war and post-war bungalows and ranch houses, some on raised foundations with crawlspaces. A leak under a raised floor can soak the crawlspace for weeks before anyone notices, and that is where mold likes to start. Homes in the foothills add storm runoff and drainage to the list.

  • Crawlspaces

    If your house sits on a raised foundation, check the crawlspace after any leak. Standing water there needs to be pumped out and dried.
