Fireplace and Chimney Care in Arcadia, CA
Plenty of Arcadia properties have been renovated or rebuilt, so the fireplace in front of us may be an original masonry firebox or a factory-built unit from the latest remodel. We work out which one it is before cleaning, because each takes different brushes, parts and clearance rules. A factory-built unit gets checked against its label. A masonry firebox gets a look at the firebrick and the mortar joints inside the opening. If you plan a new surround or a gas insert, we record the opening size and the flue condition so the plan fits what is there. When a home has two fireplaces, the notes cover each one on its own. Arcadia sits at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, so foothill brush adds wildfire exposure on top of inland heat. We check the cap screen and the crown on every visit. Summer heat dries out crown cement, and the first winter storm finds any crack. Sealing it during a fall cleaning keeps water out of the firebox and off the surround below.
