About this area
horse-country streets on the hill just above Lomita
Rolling Hills Estates starts right up the hill from Lomita. Houses here sit on big parcels with long roof runs, and a chimney may not have had anyone on top of it in a long time. We walk the roof, check the cap fasteners and the top of the liner, then sweep from below with rotary brushes so the flue is clean all the way up.
Neighborhood coverage
We work this city even where we haven't logged every block yet. Check the neighborhoods listed below, or call and we'll confirm the run to your address.
A standard visit here covers mortar joint repair and tuckpointing, chimney crown repair and replacement, and flue liner repair and relining. The written report lays out current condition, any code items, and recommended next steps, so you have documentation on file whether the visit stays routine or turns up a repair.
Santa Ana wind blows leaves and dust into spark arrestor screens on this hill, and a plugged screen can push smoke back into the room. We clear it while we are up there and replace torn mesh on the spot when we have the size on the truck. Most Rolling Hills Estates homeowners book chimney repair ahead of the season's first fire or right after the heavy spring rains pass. We keep slots open in both windows so scheduling doesn't turn into a scramble.

the big city on Lomita's north and west sides
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.
View nearby citythe peninsula above the ocean, up the hill from Lomita
Rancho Palos Verdes is a short drive up the hill from Lomita, and we climb plenty of roofs on the peninsula. Tile roofs and steep lots mean we plan the ladder before we arrive. Around Portuguese Bend and other spots where the ground moves, we look for cracks that cross the brick rather than follow the mortar, and we photograph them from the roof so you see what we see.
View nearby citythe port city east across the harbor from Lomita
Long Beach has a lot of early 1900s Craftsman and Spanish houses with brick chimneys that have been patched more than once. We start at the top: cap, crown, then the joints, all checked on the roof, and then we brush the flue by hand from below. Whatever needs repointing gets done by the same crew, not handed to someone else.
View nearby citythe beach city west of Torrance
In Redondo Beach the first thing we usually see from the ladder is rust on the cap or the chase cover. Salt gets into the seams and the metal goes from the joints outward. We check the cap, damper and crown on the roof, then sweep from the firebox, so one pair of eyes covers the whole flue.
