Adelanto was founded in 1915 by Earl Richardson, the inventor of the Hotpoint iron, as a planned farm town, and it stayed small until the 2000s. It incorporated in 1970, sits at about 2,900 feet on the open desert northwest of Victorville, and most of its housing is two-story slab tract homes built between 2003 and 2008, with older 1950s and 1960s ranch houses on big lots near the old town center and the former George Air Force Base.
The desert here is flat and windy. Spring windstorms take ridge caps and flashing off newer roofs, and the next storm goes straight into the attic. Winter nights drop into the twenties, and an exposed hose bib line or an undrained swamp cooler splits when it thaws. Monsoon cells in August drop water on hard ground that does not absorb it, and it sheets into garages on the low side of a block.
Call us now and tell us what you see. We connect Adelanto homeowners with an independent local water damage provider who looks at the house and sets the scope.
A roof that lost its ridge cap in a windstorm and took the next rain is roof leak water damage. An upstairs bathroom that soaked the ceiling below is water extraction and then structural drying by the meter.
Rebuild permits that replace drywall, plumbing, or wiring go through the Building and Safety desk at the City of Adelanto, and the city's water department can shut off at the meter when the house valve will not turn.
