We Understand the Loss. We’re Here to Help You Rebuild
When the LA fires tore through neighborhoods, they didn’t just burn buildings—they took away the sense of security families built over decades. Many of our customers lost their homes, their businesses, and the spaces where memories were made.
At The Pine Plumbing, we’ve been working with general contractors, restoration companies, and homeowners to help rebuild what was lost. Let me share one story that still stays with our team.
🏠 A Family Rebuilding Their Home and Restaurant
Last year, we were called by a general contractor working with the Gonzalez family. Their home and their small restaurant were burned to the ground. They spent months in temporary housing, working with insurance adjusters and city inspectors to get approvals to rebuild.
When our team arrived to inspect the plumbing, we found melted pipes underground, warped sewer connections, and no safe way to reconnect to city water. The damage wasn’t obvious at first glance—but the fire’s heat had compromised every inch of their plumbing system.
We coordinated with the GC, inspectors, and restoration teams to replace everything. From new water lines and sewer connections to gas lines for their restaurant kitchen equipment, our plumbers worked section by section to restore what the Gonzalez family needed.
When their restaurant reopened, Mrs. Gonzalez cried as she showed us her new kitchen. “We wouldn’t have made it without you all,” she said.
The Hidden Plumbing Risks After Fire Damage
If your property was affected by the fires, here are critical reasons to inspect and replace plumbing systems before rebuilding finishes:
✅ Melted or weakened pipes – Even if pipes look intact, extreme heat damages their strength and safety.
✅ Contaminated water lines – Fires can pull in debris, chemicals, and ash into open water lines.
✅ Damaged sewer vents – Sewer gas leaks are hazardous to health and must be repaired immediately.
✅ Broken pipe joints and fittings – Heat expansion and sudden cooling cracks joints and hidden fittings.
