Learn MoreChimney ages and weak spots in Claremont
Blocks around the Village run from the 1890s to the 1930s, and ranch tracts spread north of Foothill Boulevard later on. Each chimney reads differently, so a Craftsman brick stack gets a mortar and tile check while a tract fireplace gets its own list. Upper foothill streets are mapped as very high fire hazard, and strong Santa Ana winds along the mountains test caps. Storms near the mountains also drop heavier rain on crowns, and the 1990 Upland quake struck close by.
Ages on These Streets
About 3 in 4 homes predate 1980, from Village houses of the 1890s to postwar tracts to the north.
What Wears Out First
Old mortar and flue tile near the Village, and wind-tested caps and rain-soaked crowns on foothill streets.
How We Sort It
