California's varied climate, from the coast to the inland valleys, means different needs. Coastal areas require materials resistant to salt spray. Inland, heat and water conservation are often priorities. Many California homes, especially in older cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles, have older plumbing and electrical systems that may need upgrades during a remodel.
