Water damage & mold in San Jacinto: what to know
The San Jacinto River runs along the edge of town, and it has a flood history. A levee was built to protect San Jacinto, Hemet and Valle Vista, but on February 21, 1980, the river breached it, and that winter's flooding displaced thousands of people across the valley. Heavy storms also send mud and runoff off the foothills onto Soboba Road - in March 2025, a mudflow there trapped several vehicles and closed the road. Water that comes in from outside is treated as contaminated, so soaked drywall, carpet and pad usually have to come out.
The San Jacinto Fault runs through the area, and earthquakes in 1899 and 1918 both did serious damage in town. Today the bigger risk from a strong quake is inside the walls: a cracked fitting or a water heater that was never strapped can put a lot of water on the floor fast. Our IICRC-certified techs handle water extraction, drying, mold remediation and cleanup after floodwater and mud, and we document everything for your insurance adjuster.

San Jacinto restoration FAQs
Mud and storm runoff got into my garage. Can it just be hosed out?+
Not safely. Runoff off the hills carries soil, debris and bacteria, so anything porous it soaked, like drywall, insulation and stored boxes, usually has to be removed and the area cleaned and disinfected. Photograph the damage before cleanup starts, then call us to extract the water and dry what's left.
Does homeowners insurance cover flooding from the river or storm runoff?+
Usually not. Standard homeowners policies generally exclude flood damage, which is covered separately through flood insurance, while damage from a burst pipe or failed appliance is more often covered. We document the damage with photos and moisture readings and can work with your adjuster, but your insurer decides what's covered.
How quickly can you get to San Jacinto?+
Our office is in San Bernardino, and we're open 24/7. San Jacinto is one of the farther cities we serve, so emergency arrival is typically within 1-2 hours depending on traffic and call volume. If water is spreading, shut off the main valve while you wait.
