Learn MoreWhat we watch for in San Clemente
Local rules once required red tile over white stucco, and plenty of those early homes still stand by downtown. Talega and Marblehead Coastal came much later. A chimney near the pier and one by the eastern hills face very different weather, so location comes before any talk of wear. Salt air eats steel caps, chase covers and fasteners along the shore and keeps masonry wet, while eastern hills warm and dry out. Talega borders brushy land next to Camp Pendleton, so screens matter on that side.
What Could Feed a Fire
Embers from the brushy hills by Camp Pendleton reaching a Talega cap, or old deposits in a historic downtown flue.
How Fumes Could Get In
Rusted chase covers letting water into a metal chase, or damp masonry near the coast loosening old joints.
What We Check First
Salt damage if you live near the shore, ember screens if you live in the eastern hills.
