Danville water damage, in a county with no retrofit rule
Danville is a leafy valley town under Mount Diablo. SOS Restoration of East Bay dries the house out and puts it back together. Someone here speaks Spanish, and the first visit is free of charge. Half the town predates 1980. Call (341) 220-0032.
Somebody answers and a van leaves. Looking is on us. CSLB #1131134 · IICRC #70194273

Is there a soft-story rule in Danville?
Danville is valley stock in a county that skips the seismic rule.
No. Danville is Contra Costa, which has no such rule.
Every soft-story retrofit ordinance in the East Bay sits on the Alameda side; Contra Costa has none. A Danville permit for the repair is clear of that review, which makes the rebuild simpler.
Who runs the water and sewer in Danville?
EBMUD at the tap; Central San on the sewer.
Danville draws EBMUD water and sends its sewage to Central San. The East Bay’s water is a quilt of districts. We ring the two that serve your street the moment you call.
What does a Mount Diablo storm do to Danville?
Hillside runoff finds the low houses first.
Rain off the Diablo slopes pours onto the valley floor, and the older homes at the bottom take the water. After a big storm we check grade and drains before the water job even starts.
How old is Danville's housing?
Just over half was built before 1980.
51.1 percent of the 16,004 homes predate 1980. Any wall that old can carry lead paint, banned only in 1978. We pull a chip sample before cutting into one.
Who runs a job here to the end?
The same hands that dry it also rebuild it.
No handoff to an outside contractor. IICRC #70194273 backs the drying and CSLB #1131134 the rebuild, sized to a home from around 1980. Ask the dispatcher what your Danville street needs.
What part of a fire loss is not ours?
Brush clearance and defensible space are a landscape job, not a restoration one.
Part of Danville sits in a high fire hazard zone, and that work happens before anything burns. We come after, for what the smoke and the water left.
A 1980 house. Does age still matter?
The median lands exactly on the line, with 51.1 percent built before it.
That is precisely when a sample is worth taking, because the answer is not obvious from the street and the two paths cost very different money.
Who owns the sewer line here?
Central San runs it, and EBMUD delivers the water.
If it backs up at the cleanout outside, that call goes to Central San first. They clear their own side, and it costs you nothing to ask.

Where our crews go
San Ramon Valley, at the foot of Mount Diablo. Larger lots, older ranch houses along the creek, and a fire history on the hills that the insurers already know about.
Rather write it than talk? Leave it here and we call you back.
The number is the part that matters. The rest just tells us which crew to send and how far up the road they are going.
Valley pipe from 1980 fails quietly, so call at the first damp spot. Dial (341) 220-0032 for the nearest crew.
