For the leak, the no-heat morning, the roof that started dripping at 9pm: call (877) 454-8068. The desk is open 7am–10pm ET, every day. Tell us what is happening and where.

The median home was built in 1965, and about seven in ten predate 1980, which makes this a city of layers: post-war stucco, later infill, and everything between on the same block. Plumbing, wiring, and roof details can differ house to house, so a fix that works next door may not fit. Dry heat and mineral-heavy water wear on water heaters, fixtures, and cooling equipment, and wildfire smoke in late summer finds its way into filters and ducts. Just over a third of homes are owner-occupied, which can complicate who calls whom.

What that means for a call

With a median build year of 1965 and about 70% of homes standing before 1980, Los Angeles has a lot of housing that predates modern shutoffs, wiring, and drain materials. That does not mean every repair is a system replacement, but the age of the house is worth mentioning on the call.

Local watch-outs

  • During smoke events, keep HVAC filters clean and check exterior vents, soffits, and roof edges for places where embers or smoke can enter.
  • Hard water shortens the life of water heaters, faucets, and shower valves. Regular descaling or a softener can reduce the scale, but it will not fix a failed part.
  • Pool pumps and heaters work harder in a long hot season. Know the breaker and the shutoff before a problem, and keep the equipment pad clear.
  • Older homes often have original shutoffs, wiring, and drain lines. Ask the pro to show you the failed part before approving a replacement.
