Learn MoreHow we work a chimney in San Clemente
This began in 1925 as Ole Hanson's planned Spanish Village by the Sea, but only about 2 percent of San Clemente homes are older than 1950 now. Most are later, and hills to the east bring different chimneys, so we confirm what you have first. Pacific air brings frequent marine layer and salt near the water, while the hills to the east get hotter and drier. Faults run offshore along this coast, so a look for cracks is fair, and rain through March gets into any failed flashing.
What We Check on the Roof
Salt on metal near the pier, sun-dried crowns in the hills, and flashing before rain.
What the Same Crew Fixes
Old Spanish-style work and later hill-tract work go to the crew who took the photos.
Brush Work Here
Older village flues and hill-tract flues brushed by hand along Avenida Del Mar and beyond.

We also climb roofs in San Onofre, Dana Point, Marblehead.
