Lost Hills is an oil and farm town on Highway 46, two miles west of Interstate 5 on the dry west side of the valley. Chevron built the original water system for its field workers, and the community did not own its own water until 1989, when the district that had formed as a sanitary district in 1978 bought the system and took its present name in 1994. The housing is modest and close together, mostly single-story homes and mobile homes on slabs, with the almond and pistachio orchards of the valley's biggest growers on every side.
It is hot, dry, and far from a plumber. A leak here can run for a while before anyone notices.
Water Damage Frazier Park connects homeowners in Lost Hills 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.
A washer hose or a water heater that let go across a slab is a water extraction job first, then drying. A mobile home with a split line under the floor needs crawl space water extraction and a check of the belly board. After either one, structural drying brings the floor and walls back down.
Water and sewer come from the Lost Hills Utility District on Highway 46, which runs the wells and the treatment plant and can shut off at the meter if the house valve will not turn. Rebuild permits for this unincorporated community go through Kern County Public Works in Bakersfield.
