What we handle on a fireplace inspection visit in Woodland Hills

Woodland Hills is where Family Home Chimney Experts is based, and a lot of the houses here were bought for the yard and the family room. That family room usually has the fireplace in it, which means toddlers walking past the hearth, dogs napping on it, and a fire most cold weekends. We check the screen and the hearth edge with that in mind.

How weather in Woodland Hills changes fireplace inspection

This is one of the hottest corners of Los Angeles County: the Pierce College station read 121 degrees on September 6, 2020. Summer heat dries out mortar and bakes the crown, and the canyon edge to the south brings Santa Ana embers in the fall. We look at the crown and the spark arrestor before the first cold night. That factors into when we recommend the next visit, which materials we reach for, and what gets flagged in the written report once we're done.

What a fireplace inspection visit in Woodland Hills looks like

On a typical Woodland Hills appointment that means full firebox and refractory panel inspection, damper operation and sealing test, and smoke shelf and smoke chamber evaluation. We walk you through everything we found before we pack up and flag anything worth handling before the next heating season starts.

In Sherman Oaks we see a lot of prefab fireplaces in houses that families have remodeled around. A new hearth or built-in shelving can crowd the clearances the fireplace was made with. We measure what sits near the opening, and the list tells you if a toy bin or a dog bed is too close.

Fireplace Inspection in Burbank

Burbank is across the Valley from us. Many homes here have a factory-built fireplace from the 1940s to the 1960s, and replacement parts have to match that unit. A missing glass door or a bent screen frame is a real safety problem in a house with small kids, not only a looks problem.

Fireplace Inspection in Studio City

Studio City is east of us along Ventura Boulevard. Many houses here still have their original brick fireplace from the 1940s to the 1960s, often with an old folding screen that no longer closes all the way.
