Learn MoreWhat we tell Rolling Hills owners
Hanson planned this as a rural horse town in the 1930s, and an older ranch house here likely has a masonry stack. A later remodel may have brought gas into it. We check how well those two arrangements actually fit together. Homes here were lost in the 2009 brush fire that spread from Portuguese Bend, so spark control is no abstract worry. Fog keeps things damp, land has moved around Klondike Canyon and the Flying Triangle, and the fault runs beneath the peninsula.
What We Look at First
Spark screen first, the fit between gas unit and old stack, then signs of ground movement.
What Cannot Wait
Ember gaps near dry brush, a stack that has moved with the land, a gas unit venting badly.
What Can Wait
Fog-stained masonry, worn ranch-style hearth brick, faded trim on a rail-fence property's chase.
