Del Rosa is the northeast corner of San Bernardino, below the foothills and above the old Norton Air Force Base. Most of it was built in the 1950s and 1960s for the base, which operated from 1942 until it closed in 1994: block after block of single-story slab ranch homes on small lots along Del Rosa Avenue, Sterling Avenue, and Marshall Boulevard, with 1970s and 1980s tracts filling in toward Highland.
Those houses are now sixty to seventy years old, and so is the copper set in their slabs. A pinhole under a hallway runs for weeks before the floor gives it away. The neighborhood also sits directly under the mountain front. The Panorama Fire in November 1980 burned to the north edge of the city, and every fire on those slopes since has left a burn scar that sheds mud into the debris basins and the streets below in the first hard rain.
Call us now and tell us what you see. We connect Del Rosa homeowners with an independent local water damage provider who looks at the house and sets the scope.
A warm floor and a rising bill in a 1958 ranch house is a leak detection call before anyone cuts the slab. A tank that let go in the garage and ran under the wall is water heater leak cleanup, and the drying after either one is structural drying.
The base became San Bernardino International Airport, and the runway is still the southern edge of the neighborhood. Del Rosa is inside the city, so water comes from the San Bernardino Municipal Water Department and rebuild permits go through the city's building desk downtown.
