West Hills is a neighborhood of the City of Los Angeles at the western edge of the San Fernando Valley, east of Agoura Hills and Calabasas. The Los Angeles Almanac estimated about 32,267 residents in 2022. Homes in ZIP code 91307 can call the same local water damage restoration team that serves Agoura Hills.
The neighborhood took its own name in 1987, when residents of a section of western Canoga Park petitioned to separate. Bell Creek and Dayton Creek in West Hills are among the headwaters of the Los Angeles River, which begins where Bell Creek meets Arroyo Calabasas in Canoga Park. Those small creeks and channels can run fast after winter storms.
In older homes, original water heaters, supply lines and roofs may be near the end of their useful life. California law requires residential water heaters to be braced or strapped against earthquakes, and checking those straps is a quick way to reduce one common source of garage flooding.
Garage flooding from a failed tank is covered under pipe and water heater leaks, and creek-side storm water under storm runoff cleanup. Neighbors in Calabasas and Agoura Hills use the same line.
