What this gas fireplace repair visit covers 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.

What gas fireplace repair actually protects in Burbank

Wind off the Verdugo Mountains works at loose flashing until a gap opens beside the stack. We cut counter flashing into the mortar joints instead of relying on sealant, so the seal does not depend on caulk holding. A typical visit here covers pilot light and ignition system repair, thermocouple and thermopile replacement, and gas valve diagnosis and replacement, scoped to what the chimney actually needs rather than a number quoted over the phone.

What shows up on a Burbank service call

Homes here run to postwar houses on the flats, hillside homes below the verdugo mountains, and older bungalows near downtown, and each type wears differently. Knowing which one we're climbing onto decides how we get access, what we expect to find, and whether the visit stays routine or turns into a repair before we pack up.

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

Gas Fireplace Repair 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 Repair 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.

Studio City, southeast of our Van Nuys base along Ventura Boulevard

Gas Fireplace Repair in Studio City

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.

Woodland Hills, at the west end of the Valley

Gas Fireplace Repair 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 Repair 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.
