Learn MoreHow we work a chimney in Santa Monica
Only about 1 home in 5 here is a detached house, so a chimney in Santa Monica often belongs to an apartment building with several flues. Ocean Park has early homes with older stacks. We photograph from the roof for whoever manages the place. Sitting directly on the ocean, Santa Monica gets a steady marine layer and salt air that eats steel caps and flashing faster than inland. The Santa Monica Fault also runs through the city, so masonry gets read for cracks.
What We Check on the Roof
Salt-pitted steel caps, flashing near the bluff, and fault cracks on old masonry.
What the Same Crew Fixes
Corroded caps and cracked brick are replaced by the same crew who took the photos.
Brush Work Here
Apartment flues and Ocean Park flues, each brushed by hand from the firebox.

We also climb roofs in Culver City, Marina del Rey, West Los Angeles.
