Colton sits just east of Patton with many 1950s and 1960s tract homes on slab foundations that let water travel under floors after winter rains. Our crew at 3102 E Highland Ave reaches these streets quickly via Highland Avenue and can set up drying before moisture reaches framing or subfloors.
Older Colton neighborhoods near La Cadena Drive often have narrow driveways and carports that limit equipment size. We use compact extraction tools and moisture meters suited to these lots so we can work inside garages and side yards without tearing up landscaping or blocking access for residents.
Mild winters still bring enough rain to overwhelm older storm drains along Washington Street and Reche Canyon Road. When that happens we focus first on removing standing water from crawl spaces common in South Colton before mold sets in during the following warm spell.

Water Damage Restoration Patton in Colton — Local Notes
- •Colton's post-war tract homes frequently sit on flat lots with minimal grading, so roof leaks or pipe bursts spread quickly across slab edges.
- •Many streets off La Cadena Drive have tight side setbacks that require smaller dehumidifiers and air movers to fit through gates and doors.
- •Winter storms can back up drainage along the I-10 frontage roads, sending water into garages and laundry rooms in lower sections of Colton.
- •Aging galvanized lines in 1960s homes near Colton High School often fail at joints after repeated seasonal moisture cycles.
