Learn MoreWhat we look after in Garden Grove
Founded by Alonzo Cook in 1874, Garden Grove was still rural in 1933, and most homes came decades later, around 1965. So old quake stories apply less here. The usual questions are simple ones about mortar, caps and clean flues, and we answer each in plain words. About eight miles inland, this city wakes to some marine layer and warms up by summer, and hard freezes are rare. Most rain falls from November to March, so the first big storm often shows you which crown needs help.
The Houses
Around Garden Grove the stock runs to 1960s tract houses, about half detached, with apartments and condos along major boulevards.
Before the First Fire
Sweep, then check the crown before winter, because a small crack becomes an obvious leak in the first storm.
Care of the Room
Apartments and houses both get a neat setup, a covered floor, and no soot left on anything.
Close By
Garden Grove stops sometimes fall alongside Santa Ana, Anaheim, Westminster.
