Why chimney repair in Encino needs a local approach
Santa Ana gusts can push embers and leaves straight at an uncapped flue in the fall. Before that, we check the cap and the mesh. In winter, a family using two fireplaces should have a carbon monoxide alarm on each floor that has one. A typical visit ends up covering mortar joint repair and tuckpointing, chimney crown repair and replacement, and flue liner repair and relining because the job should follow what the chimney actually needs, not a flat-rate guess.
