Learn MoreWhat we check first on Arcadia chimneys
Lucky Baldwin's rancho was cut into big lots, and tract building ran from the 1930s into the 1950s, leaving many chimneys here decades old. We sweep first, then tell you the creosote stage and whether the liner can still contain a flue fire. Santa Anas come down hard along the mountain front, and the Eaton Fire of 2025 was not far off in Altadena. A spark arrestor with sound mesh keeps embers in the flue, while heavy foothill rain goes after crowns and joints.
The Flue and the Fuel
How much creosote is in the flue, and what stage it has reached, on Santa Anita Oaks and Rancho neighborhoods on large lots, plus 1930s to 1950s tract homes.
Embers and Wind
Every Arcadia cap gets its spark arrestor mesh checked for rust and holes, since a screen that has opened up no longer holds an ember.
The Liner
A cracked or missing liner lets the heat of a chimney fire reach the framing. We look at it with a light or a camera before saying the fireplace is fit to use.
NFPA 211 Level
Level 1 for a yearly check, Level 2 with a camera for an Arcadia home sale, a fuel change or after a chimney fire.
