Learn MoreWhat we tell Fillmore parents
Citrus and rail built Fillmore, incorporated in 1914, and Northridge badly damaged its downtown in 1994. Homes here took that shaking too, so an older chimney deserves a careful look before a family lights it. Northridge hit Fillmore hard, including historic buildings and many homes. Compared with coastal Ventura, inland summers are hotter and winter nights colder, which works at mortar, and November to March rain then finds the damage.
Check at Home
If you bought an older Fillmore home, ask the sellers whether the chimney was fixed after Northridge, and note what they say.
Kids and Pets
Colder valley nights pull kids and pets toward the fire, so keep the screen closed and set a blanket spot a few feet back.
What We Look At First
Northridge damage in older brick, including any repairs made afterward.
Next Door
We also take calls from Santa Paula, Ventura, Simi Valley.
