Water Damage Restoration in Ford City, CA
Ford City is the unincorporated neighborhood on the north edge of Taft, named for the Model Ts that filled its streets when the oil boom brought workers here in the 1910s. It is bounded by oil fields on two sides, and its homes are a mix of mobile homes, small bungalows, and ranch houses, most built in the second half of the last century on slabs with plumbing that has been patched more than once.
It shares Taft's weather: long, hot summers, a few freezing nights a winter, and the occasional cloudburst off the hills that overwhelms a street in minutes.
Water Damage Frazier Park connects homeowners in Ford City with an independent local water damage provider by phone. You describe the problem, and the provider who calls back decides what to look at first.
Ford City water damage, mobile homes and slabs
A supply line under a mobile home that froze on a January night and split leaves water under the floor, which is where crawl space water extraction and a check of the belly board come in. A washer hose that let go across a slab is a water extraction job first. After either, structural drying is what gets the floor and walls back down.
Where to call in Ford City
Ford City sits next door to Taft College, the community college that has anchored this end of town for a century and is the neighborhood's largest public institution. Rebuild permits for this unincorporated area go through Kern County Public Works rather than the City of Taft, and water service comes from the West Kern Water District.
