Sorrento sits in East Baton Rouge Parish right by the LSU Campus in the 70820 zip. Older brick and frame homes on smaller lots face frequent water intrusion from heavy summer rains and poor drainage along streets like Burbank Drive and Nicholson Drive. Our crew at 3256 Riverbrook Ct reaches these properties quickly to stop moisture before it spreads into crawl spaces and wall cavities common in the neighborhood.
Hot humid summers and mild winters keep the ground saturated for months, so hidden leaks under slabs or in attics often turn into larger problems. We extract standing water, dry affected rooms, and check for mold growth that thrives in this subtropical climate. Service stays available Monday through Friday 8am to 6pm and Saturday 9am to 2pm for Sorrento residents who need prompt water damage repair.
Access through narrow driveways and tree-lined streets requires compact equipment that fits without damaging landscaping. We focus on the exact spots where water pools near foundations in this part of Baton Rouge rather than generic citywide fixes.

Water Damage Restoration in 45. Sorrento — Local Notes
- •Many Sorrento homes built in the 1960s-1980s have slab foundations that trap water after heavy downpours along University Lakes.
- •Limited side-yard access on compact lots means crews must stage drying equipment through front doors and garage entries only.
- •Proximity to LSU Campus brings higher groundwater from nearby lakes, so we often pull carpet and baseboards earlier to prevent wicking into drywall.
- •East Baton Rouge Parish drainage ditches behind properties back up during storms, pushing water under rear additions common in this neighborhood.
