Learn MoreWhat the roof check finds in Hawaiian Gardens
Hawaiian Gardens packs small homes and apartments into a tiny area, and rentals make up a big part of it. Where a chimney exists, the person who pays for it may never see its top, so photos from the roof do the explaining. Early summer mornings bring low clouds off the coast, and winter storms from November through April soak crowns and joints that have aged since the sixties. Masonry around here also remembers 1933, when the Newport-Inglewood Fault moved.
The Houses
On our Hawaiian Gardens visits: small homes, many apartments, a large share of rentals, mostly from the late sixties or earlier.
On the Roof
Cap, crown and flashing on small homes and apartment stacks, with photos a landlord can read without visiting.
Which Metal
Marine clouds keep things damp some mornings, which makes stainless worthwhile on any cap a landlord would rather replace just once.
Same Day, Nearby
Hawaiian Gardens visits often share a day with Artesia, Long Beach, Lakewood.
