Learn MoreA Baker family visit in Ventura
In Ventura we see old brick near downtown and newer homes closer to the harbor. Damp sea air is the quiet enemy here, so we look hard at crowns, mortar and any metal on the chimney, and we suggest timing repairs before the wet months.
The Houses
In Ventura we mostly see older bungalows and Victorian houses near downtown and the hillsides, mid-century homes on the east side, and newer houses near the harbor.
Weather and Season
The Thomas Fire burned into the Ventura hillsides in 2017, and the coast adds salt to every rain. We suggest a crown and cap check before the wet months, and a spark screen check for homes on the hills above town.
Same Drive
Saticoy, Oxnard, Ojai sit on the same stretch of road, so a visit there often shares the day with Ventura.
The Report
You get photos and a plain-language write-up of your Ventura chimney before any repair is planned.
