Why Corona homes need these repairs

Corona, the 'Circle City', has older homes near Grand Boulevard and large 1980s–2000s subdivisions climbing into the foothills. The city's utility blends desalted local groundwater with imported Colorado River and State Water Project water, so hardness, slab leaks and hillside pressure issues are common calls.
