Learn MoreWhat we look after in Bell Gardens
Dust Bowl families settled Bell Gardens in the 1930s on chopped-up farmland, and today about 1 in 5 households owns. Little houses with later add-ons can leave a chimney out of step with the building, so we check where the two meet. Morning low cloud keeps early summers mild, then rain from November on tests older joints and flashing. The 1933 quake showed how badly unreinforced masonry can fail here, so any very old chimney merits a camera before regular fires resume.
The Houses
Around Bell Gardens the stock runs to small bungalows and postwar houses, with many rentals and added units behind them.
Before the First Fire
An addition can trap water against old brick, so look for damp marks indoors and have the flashing and crown checked before fire season.
Care of the Room
Small living rooms fill up fast, which is why covers go down first and we work around the furniture where we can.

Bell Gardens stops sometimes fall alongside Commerce, South Gate, Cudahy.
