Learn MoreWhat we tell Moorpark owners
Four of five homes here came after 1980, so Peach Hill or Campus Park fireplaces are probably factory units. Those have parts, and parts wear. Instead of a long list, you hear which pieces need attention and which ones are fine. This city took a hard shake in 1994, and homes were damaged, so a metal flue could have been knocked loose at a joint. Inland sun and heat wear down metal more than salt does, and winter rain shows leaks.
What We Look at First
Metal flue joints after 1994, sun-worn cap, then flashing in a stucco chase.
What Cannot Wait
A joint knocked loose inside the chase, flashing leaking in the rainy months, a failed cap.
What Can Wait
Sun-dulled metal, scuffed stucco, a remote fireplace control that acts up.

We also go to Fillmore, Santa Susana, Somis.
