Learn MoreWhat we look after in Aliso Viejo
Master planning began in the 1970s, but Aliso Viejo was mostly built in the 1980s and 1990s, and just 6 homes in 100 predate 1980. Masonry is unlikely. A fireplace here mainly means gas, or a metal flue boxed in, and we check it on those terms. Marine air keeps temperatures mild this far inland of Laguna Beach, which is easy on chimneys. Next door in Laguna Niguel, though, homes burned in 2022, and a thrust fault sits nearby, so a good screen and sound flue still count.
The Houses
Around Aliso Viejo the stock runs to 1980s and 1990s planned neighborhoods with townhomes, condos, and newer detached houses.
Before the First Fire
A newer home can still have a failing screen or soot-blocked flue, so have it seen once before regular use.
Care of the Room
Townhome stairs and condo halls get runners, and we leave the space exactly as it looked when we arrived.

Aliso Viejo stops sometimes fall alongside Dana Point, Laguna Hills, Lake Forest.
