Harris Chimney Contractors, Hands On in Lomita
Tell Us What You See
Leave a name and number and a line about the problem. We call back, ask about the roof, and set a day to come up.
Why the Same Hands Do Both Jobs
A lot of chimney companies send one person to look and a different crew to build. Things get lost between the two: which joint was soft, how far the crack ran, whether the cap screen was torn or just plugged. Harris Chimney Contractorsworks out of Lomita and keeps both jobs with the same people.
Every visit starts on the roof. We look at the cap, the crown, the flashing and the top courses of brick up close and photograph them before we come down. Then the rotary brushes go up from the firebox, pushed and turned by hand, so we can feel where the flue narrows or a tile has shifted.
When masonry or crown work follows, the person who saw the problem comes back with the trowel. You talk to one crew from the first call to the last joint, whether the house is in Lomita, Torrance, up on the hill or over in Long Beach.
Four Habits on Every Roof
They hold on a Lomita cottage and on a tall Palos Verdes stack alike.
The Looker Is the Fixer
Whoever climbs up to check your chimney is the one who comes back with the trowel. No hand-off to a crew that never saw the roof.
Checked Before We Climb Down
Cap, crown, flashing and top brick are looked at and photographed on the roof, not guessed at from the driveway.
Lomita Roofs, South Bay Brick
We work out of Lomita and spend most days on Torrance, Palos Verdes hill, Gardena and Long Beach roofs, so we know how brick and caps wear here.
Wait If It Can Wait
If a hairline crack can be watched instead of repaired, we say so and photograph it, so you can compare at the next visit.
What You Have When We Leave
Enough to decide what to do next without calling anyone else.
