Southwood is a settled Torrance neighborhood filled with 1950s and 60s single-story tract homes built on slab foundations with original galvanized plumbing that is now well past its expected service life. The aging galvanized supply and drain lines inside these homes corrode from the inside out, leading to pinhole leaks and sudden ruptures. A slow drain-line failure can run undetected for a long time, eventually backing raw sewage into the yard or inside the house. Southwood's 1950s slab-on-grade homes were constructed with galvanized supply and drain lines that degrade steadily from the inside. The original plumbing was never replaced in most homes, so corrosion is inevitable. A slow drain-line collapse or main-line failure under the slab goes completely unnoticed until sewage backs up into low areas or through the yard. From Southwood, crews also cover nearby Old Torrance, West Torrance, Walteria, Southeast Torrance, North Torrance, Hollywood Riviera. See every neighborhood and town on the full service area page.
