Homes in 94025: what they're like and what they need

Electrical panel check before an EV charger or heat pump

70% of homes here were built before 1980, when panels were often sized for much less load. Check yours before adding big electric items.

Gas furnace to heat pump

70% of homes in 94025 heat with gas. A heat pump replaces the furnace and adds AC, and local utility rebates often cover a large share.

Earthquake bolting and bracing

Houses built before 1980 on raised foundations are the ones California's Earthquake Brace + Bolt program offers grants for. Check whether your home qualifies.

Lead-safe painting and remodeling

About 68% of homes here are older than 1978. Painters and remodelers working on them must follow EPA lead-safe rules (RRP certification).

Older pipes and sewer lines

46% of homes here are from the 1950s or earlier, when galvanized supply pipes and clay or cast-iron sewer lines were common. A camera inspection of the sewer line is cheap insurance.

Roof and gutters before the rains

Half the homes here were built before 1964. Most roofs last 20-30 years, so many are on their second or third. Clean gutters and a roof check before winter storms prevent most leaks.
