Trusted across Inglewood and the South Bay.
Winter storm rain came through the flat roof and down our Market Street ceiling. Their technicians tarped it, opened the wet drywall, and had air movers running the same night. They handled the insurance photos for us.
We had a slab leak we never saw coming, just a warm spot on the tile and a huge water bill in Morningside Park. They located it with barely any demolition and dried the slab and cabinets. Calm and professional.
A drain backed up into our downstairs bath near Crenshaw. They contained the black water, disinfected everything, and hauled out what could not be saved. One star off only because the first callback ran a little late.
The water heater in the garage burst overnight and flooded into the house. Their crew pulled the wet baseboards, dried the framing, and saved our built-ins. Respectful of the home and clear about the work.
Storm-drain water pushed into our Fairview Heights garage during the January storms. They pumped it out, dried the slab, and documented the loss for the claim. I would call Prairie Ave DrySure again in a heartbeat.

Winter storm roof leak dried in a living room
The problem: A February atmospheric river drove rain under the low-slope roof of a two-story off Market Street, and it came through the living-room ceiling overnight, soaking the drywall and insulation.
What we did: We tarped the roof section at first light, opened the wet ceiling to release trapped water, then set air movers and a dehumidifier and tracked moisture daily until the framing and drywall read dry.
Equipment: A roof tarp, air movers, a low-grain refrigerant dehumidifier, and a thermal camera to map the wet ceiling.
Outcome: The ceiling dried in four days with no mold, the homeowner's roofer made the permanent repair, and the loss was fully documented for the claim.
Slab leak located and dried in a kitchen
The problem: A homeowner noticed a warm patch on the kitchen tile and a water bill that had nearly doubled. A copper supply line had failed under the slab and was wicking up into the cabinets.
What we did: We pinpointed the leak so only a small area of tile had to come up, extracted the water, and dried the slab and cabinet bases with mat drying and air movers before the repipe went in.
Equipment: A slab drying mat system, air movers, a dehumidifier, and a moisture meter to confirm the slab was dry.
Outcome: The slab and cabinets dried within five days, the plumber rerouted the line, and the kitchen was rebuilt from a documented dry reading.
Sewer backup cleaned in a ground-floor bath
The problem: During the January storms a shared sewer line backed up into the ground-floor bathroom of a South Inglewood home, leaving Category 3 black water across the tile and into the hallway carpet.
What we did: We contained the area, extracted and disposed of the contaminated water, removed the soaked carpet and pad, then disinfected, deodorized, and dried the room to a verified reading.
Equipment: Extraction gear, an antimicrobial treatment, an air scrubber, air movers, and a moisture meter for daily readings.
Outcome: The bathroom and hallway were disinfected and dry in four days, and the homeowner was cleared to reinstall flooring on a documented dry surface.

Local conditions
Water damage in Inglewood plays by coastal-basin rules
An older Inglewood home takes winter atmospheric-river storms, storm-drain flooding in the low-lying pockets, slab leaks in decades-old copper, and burst pipes in the historic core, and each one drives water into a house a way an out-of-town franchise misreads. Prairie Ave DrySure is the local team built for it. We answer 24/7, reach most of the city in 45 to 75 minutes, and dry your home to a verified standard so the damage stops instead of spreading behind the drywall.

Winter storms and atmospheric rivers
Pacific storm systems stall over the LA basin and drop heavy rain that overwhelms flat and low-slope roofs, yard drains, and older ceilings across Inglewood.
Storm-drain and flash flooding
The lower-lying pockets near the light-rail line and the washes take storm-drain backups and fast street flooding in a heavy winter storm.
Slab leaks under older homes
Copper supply lines run through the concrete slab of mid-century homes, and decades of use corrode them into pinhole leaks you feel as a warm floor.
Aging pipes in the historic core
Downtown and North Inglewood carry original galvanized and copper plumbing, so a burst supply line inside a wall can flood a room before anyone notices.
Water heater and appliance failures
Garage and closet water heaters, plus braided washer and dishwasher hoses, are a common hidden failure that floods a floor fast.
Sewer and drain backups
Older sewer laterals and shared lines back up during heavy rain, pushing Category 3 black water into ground-floor baths and garages.
FAQ
Inglewood water damage questions, answered
Water in your property right now?
Do not wait for the FAQ. An Inglewood restoration team is standing by 24/7.
(310) 742-9441 Call nowHow fast can you reach my Inglewood home?
We answer 24/7 and dispatch across Inglewood and the South Bay, reaching most of the city in 45 to 75 minutes. Name your neighborhood or ZIP when you call and we route the nearest team.
What should I do right now while I wait?
If you can safely reach it, shut the water off at the main. Stay off wet floors and clear of outlets, move what you can off the floor, and photograph everything for your claim before cleanup starts.
My ceiling is leaking during a storm, can you help today?
Yes. A winter storm roof leak spreads fast through drywall and insulation, so call at the first stain. We tarp the roof, dry the attic and ceiling, and document the storm loss for your carrier.
How do I know if I have a slab leak?
Warm spots on the floor, the sound of running water with everything off, a spike in your water bill, or cracked tile can all point to a slab leak. We locate it with minimal demolition, then dry the slab and cabinets.
Do you handle sewage and drain backups?
Yes. A sewer or drain backup is Category 3 black water, so do not touch it. Our technicians contain it, extract and dispose of it safely, then disinfect, deodorize, and dry the space to a verified standard.
Do you work with my insurance company?
Yes. We document the loss with photos and moisture readings and bill your carrier directly for covered work, so you generally pay only your deductible. We work with every major California carrier.
How much does water damage restoration cost in Inglewood?
A small cleanup runs a few hundred to about two thousand dollars. A flooded room, a slab leak, or a sewer backup runs into the thousands, set by the water category, how far it spread, and how long it sat.
How long does drying take?
Most homes dry in 3 to 5 days, longer for a saturated slab, plaster, or hardwood. Coastal humidity slows things down, which is why we run commercial dehumidifiers and monitor moisture to a verified dry standard.
Which neighborhoods and ZIPs do you cover?
All of Inglewood, from Downtown and Morningside Park to Fairview Heights and Crenshaw-Imperial, plus Lennox, Hawthorne, and Westchester. ZIPs 90301, 90302, 90303, and 90305 are all on our map.
Are you licensed and certified?
We are licensed and insured through the California Contractors State License Board, and our technicians are IICRC certified in Water Damage Restoration and Applied Structural Drying.
