Water Damage in Sylmar

Sylmar is the northernmost neighborhood of Los Angeles, at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains. It has single-family tracts, horse properties with larger lots and homes along the foothills. The 1971 San Fernando earthquake, often called the Sylmar quake, was centered nearby.

Foothill homes face runoff and debris coming down the slopes during heavy rain, and larger lots often have long water lines, barns and outbuildings where leaks go unnoticed.

Good to Know in Sylmar

  • Water Service

    LADWP supplies water here. A break in the street or at the meter is theirs to fix; pipes after the meter are the owner’s.

  • Permits

    Repairs that touch plumbing, electrical or structure go through the LA Department of Building and Safety (LADBS).

  • Long Water Lines

    On larger lots, check the yard and outbuildings for soggy ground. A hidden line leak raises the bill before it shows.

  • Slope Runoff

    Keep debris basins, ditches and drains clear before winter storms.

  • ZIP Codes
