Learn MoreReading the Top of a Redondo Beach Chimney
Most condos and townhomes here run factory-built gas units, with no brick involved. Older North Redondo houses commonly have real masonry stacks, and Hollywood Riviera adds hillside chimneys with a longer exposed side and more view than shelter. The closer to King Harbor, the quicker salt air rusts caps, flashing and fasteners. Rain is modest and frost rare. Several miles inland runs the Newport-Inglewood Fault, close enough to matter for unreinforced tops.
The Crown
Older North Redondo stacks often need a sturdier top, and a cast slab with an overhang keeps sea damp off the brick.
Joints and Flashing
Flashing goes before the brick does here, so we check for rust at the roof seam and cut new metal into the joints.
Above the Roofline
Rust-eaten chase covers on townhomes and hillside homes get replaced with metal that better suits air off the harbor.
