What Torrance experience brings to chimney level 2 inspection
Torrance wraps around Lomita on two sides, so it gets more of our ladder time than anywhere but home. Tract houses from the 1950s and 1960s often have a brick chimney with white chalky streaks on the face. That is water moving through the brick, and we trace it on the roof to a split crown or an open joint before we mix any mortar. We've worked on the full range of chimney types found in this area, from single-flue brick stacks to multi-system fireplaces, and we set up each visit around what's actually on the property.
