Learn MoreHow we work a chimney in Lakewood
Weingart, Boyar and Taper put up Lakewood almost in one go, from about 1950 to 1953, so thousands of houses reached the same age together. A chimney on one street tends to need what the next street needs, and we still check each from above. Marine air from a few miles away keeps Lakewood mild, with cool morning clouds common in May and June. Those damp mornings slowly wet crown and mortar, and there is little fire risk in this urban setting.
What We Check on the Roof
Early-1950s crowns and mortar, plus damp caps from cool May and June mornings.
What the Same Crew Fixes
Same-age tract crowns get repaired one at a time by the crew who looked at them.
Brush Work Here
Tract flues from the Weingart and Boyar years brushed by hand, then the damper is cleaned.
Next Door
We also climb roofs in Norwalk, Long Beach, Los Alamitos.
