Learn MoreWhat we look after in Brea
Brea has newer neighborhoods like Olinda Ranch and La Floresta, with stucco homes using gas or factory-built fireplaces, plus older tracts. About 55% of its housing is older than 1980. Knowing your type sets the job, so we confirm it right away, then look properly. Here in the Puente Hills, the Whittier Fault passes through, so a metal joint or old crown may have moved. Warm summers, cool nights and rain from November on keep working on flashing and crowns, and cracks show up as leaks indoors.
The Houses
Around Brea the stock runs to Olinda Ranch and La Floresta stucco, often with gas or factory fireplaces, older tracts, condos and apartments.
Before the First Fire
Check that gas or metal systems still vent properly, and look for leak stains near any older flashing.
Care of the Room
New stone and older carpet get matching care: a soft layer down, then a clean vacuum finish at the hearth.
