In San Diego: The marine layer keeps humidity high near the coast, so poorly ventilated bathrooms, closets and crawlspaces grow mold. In San Jose: Bungalows in the Rose Garden, Naglee Park and Willow Glen often have plumbing running through crawlspaces, where slow leaks can soak subfloors and grow mold before anyone notices. In Sacramento: Midtown and Land Park bungalows from the 1920s–40s often still have galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains that corrode and leak inside walls and crawlspaces. In San Francisco: Persistent fog in the Sunset and Richmond keeps homes damp, encouraging mold.

Slab and raised-foundation homes are both common, with many older homes on raised foundations with crawlspaces, especially in the Bay Area and Los Angeles.

California requires contractors on jobs of $500 or more (labor and materials) to be licensed by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). Check the license on the CSLB website.
