Water Intrusion Specialist | Beverly Hills

The #1 Rain Leak Detection Company in Beverly Hills and Greater Los Angeles Area

When the rainy season hits Southern California, especially the Beverly Hills and the Los Angeles community at large, significant water intrusion problems typically occur for a number of reasons, but here are the three reasons below.  In addition, learn a little more about us and how we can help you.

Top 3 Reasons Why Water Intrusion Occurs in Beverly Hills + Greater Los Angeles

  • #1: Significant Rain within a Short Period of Time
    • Homes and buildings can generally handle normal rain events, but what we would categorize as significant rains would be beyond the historical averages and for sustained periods of times (multi-day rain events).  Take into consideration how the rainy season has come hard and steady for consecutive years, rainfall in Beverly Hills is pushing the limits of what homes and buildings can resists causing unwanted water intrusion to interior spaces and causing millions of dollars in repair damages across the city.
  • #2: Defective Construction
    • Whether you want to admit it or not, the new home or building you just purchased may be defective.  Often times we test new structures and find that they were built substandard, missing waterproofing details, fenestration products such as windows and doors were improperly installed, and the adjacent wall construction and deck assemblies have incorrect waterproofing details.
  • #3: Useful Life Expectancy of the Structure’s Waterproofing has Expired
    • Last on our list is existing infrastructure that is aged.  That means “old” in layman’s terms.  Like anything old, things fall apart naturally, and it is the responsibility of ownership to perform regular exterior inspections and maintenance of the building envelope to ensure the home or building will continue to to resist water intrusion during the rainy season.  When a home or structure has not received proper care and upkeep things start to fall apart piece by piece and eventually that leads to failure of exterior cladding and waterproofing.  Once the waterproofing layer is breached all sorts of bad thing with water intrusion start to occur wreaking havoc to floors, walls, ceilings, etc.
