Learn MoreWhat we tell Rosemead owners
Roughly a quarter of all houses went up before 1950, and the 1987 quake hit nearly under this city. If nobody has looked up inside your flue since then, a camera can answer that one question simply. The 1987 shaking was centered near here, and buildings around it took damage. Warm summers and mild winters do little harm by comparison, so here a chimney's history matters more than its weather.
What We Look at First
Up the flue with a camera for 1987 damage, then the roofline joints.
What Cannot Wait
Flue tiles split by the 1987 shaking, a stack loose at the roof, smoke entering a room.
What Can Wait
Sun-worn stucco, a little soot on the face, a damper that takes a firm pull.
