Why Eichlers Suck, and What You Can Do About It - Citrus House
Eichler homes, designed by Joseph Eichler, is the main example of Mid Century Modern homes in California, with over 11,000 of the homes built in the 20th century. Many people love them and they have some amazing features, with large expanses of glass and large, open floor plans that are so popular today. They were cheap to build and made efficient use of materials to build a reasonably sized home. Unfortunately, they are really horribly constructed, prone to structural problems, foundation issues, energy inefficient while also being cold and drafty. Leaks in the roofs and walls are commonplace, as is rot at the windows and doors, cracks in the concrete slab floors and broken radiant floor heating systems. The designs didn't allow for any future modifications without a rats nest of pipes and electrical wires on the roof. But there is hope. See how we took a disaster of an Eichler and made the roof look like we build it new.
