Victorville grew up where Route 66 and the railroad cross the Mojave River, and the Old Town along Seventh Street still has 1920s through 1950s bungalows and small commercial blocks. The city incorporated in 1962, took a hit when George Air Force Base closed in 1992, and then doubled in size through the 2000s with two-story slab tracts spreading across the desert west of the 15 and south toward Bear Valley Road. Spring Valley Lake, a private lake community built in the 1970s along the river, sits on the east side.
The river is the boundary and the risk. In February 1993 the Mojave came over the Bear Valley Road bridge, and the low ground along the river in Old Town and near Spring Valley Lake has flooded more than once. Winter nights freeze, summer afternoons pass 105 degrees, and the two-story tracts send an upstairs bathroom leak straight into the ceiling below.
Call us now and tell us what you see. We connect Victorville homeowners with an independent local water damage provider who looks at the house and sets the scope.
A ceiling stain under a second-floor bathroom in a 2005 tract is water extraction upstairs and structural drying below. A slow bill climb in a 1950s Old Town bungalow is a leak detection call before anyone opens a wall.
Rebuild permits go through the Building and Safety Division at the City of Victorville, and the city's own water district can shut off at the meter. The Mojave Water Agency manages the groundwater basin the whole High Desert draws from and keeps the floodplain maps for the river through town.
