Studio City gas fireplace cleaning, done by people who know the roofs

Many Studio City chimneys date from the 1940s through the 1960s, and on the canyon lots they rise tall above steep roofs. That height is where the trouble collects: the top courses take the most sun and wind, and flashing on a steep pitch is the first seal to let go. We've worked the full range of chimney types found here, from single-flue brick stacks to multi-system fireplaces, and we set up the visit around whichever one is on your roof.

Sherman Oaks, the first stop south of our Van Nuys base

Gas Fireplace Cleaning in Sherman Oaks

Part of Sherman Oaks was Van Nuys until the city moved the line in 1991, so the chimneys here look a lot like ours: postwar brick on the flats and taller stacks on the hillside lots. On the flats it is usually the crown and top joints; on the hill it is the flashing and the courses above a steep roof.

Encino, west of Sherman Oaks along Ventura Boulevard

Gas Fireplace Cleaning in Encino

Encino lots often have a main living room chimney and a second stack for a den or an addition, each put up by a different builder. We look at every stack on the property, because one can have a sound crown while the one beside it has split.

Burbank, at the eastern edge of the Valley

Gas Fireplace Cleaning in Burbank

Burbank grew fast after the war, and many of its brick chimneys went up quickly in that boom. When they fail it is usually at the top: a thin crown, joints laid lean, and flashing that was only ever caulked to the brick.

Woodland Hills, at the west end of the Valley

Gas Fireplace Cleaning in Woodland Hills

Woodland Hills gets some of the hottest afternoons in the Valley, and brick that bakes all day and then takes winter rain shows it in the joints. Sun-side joint loss is the thing we photograph most often here.

Simi Valley, over the Santa Susana Pass from the west Valley

Gas Fireplace Cleaning in Simi Valley

Many Simi Valley chimneys came with tract houses built in the same few seasons, so neighbors often share the same weak spot. Usually it is a crown troweled thin, or a rusted chase cover on a framed chimney.
