Drainage Matters More Here Than the Coating Does

On ground like this, a deck is part of the property drainage whether it was designed that way or not. Rolling Hills Estates occupies the northern side of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, an area with a history of documented landslides, including the Peartree Lane landslide on July 8, 2023, which destroyed several homes in the city.

Water shed off an edge and left to soak in is exactly what you do not want on a slope with that history. We design the repair so water is collected and taken somewhere deliberate, then waterproof the surface to match. Doing it the other way round, coating first and worrying about where the water goes afterwards, is how a deck repair becomes a hillside problem.

Of the 3,220 housing units in the city, 89.8 percent of the occupied ones are owner occupied, so this is almost entirely private property, often with terraces and stairs stepping down a slope. Those structures carry real span, and span means movement.

On sloping lots we look under the deck first. The underside tells you whether the framing has been taking water, whether the hardware still has section, and whether the posts and footings below are dry. None of that is visible from the finished surface.

Roof runoff belongs in the conversation too. Downspouts discharging onto a terrace, or into the grade at the head of a slope, undo a good deck repair from outside the deck.

Waterproofing in Rolling Hills Estates: Your Questions

Why is drainage design the priority on this peninsula?

Because the northern side of the Palos Verdes Peninsula has a history of documented landslides, including the Peartree Lane landslide of July 8, 2023, which destroyed several homes here. Where deck water goes is not a detail.

What does the city need before it will take a submittal?

Fully dimensioned plans including a site plan with existing and proposed lot coverage, elevations, a floor plan, a completed Project Statistics form, and one set signed by the HOA and adjacent neighbors.

Who does the plan check?

Willdan. Rolling Hills Estates is a contract city and uses Willdan for Building and Safety services, so plan review and inspection run through that firm rather than a city department.
