Learn MoreWhat we tell Santa Clarita owners
More than half the homes here date from the 1980s or later, so metal flues and caps are the norm, and metal wears differently than brick. An older small house in Newhall is another matter. We say which case is yours, in everyday words. Sand Canyon burned in 2016 and took homes on the edge of the city, so embers are worth your attention. Sun wears on metal here far more than salt, and the rainy months expose failed flashing as leaks.
What We Look at First
Sun wear on metal caps, leak paths around flashing, and any spark screen near Sand Canyon.
What Cannot Wait
Flashing leaking through the ceiling in rainy months, a screen with holes near brush, a slipped flue section.
What Can Wait
Dull sun-aged metal, a small dent in a shroud, old staining on a Newhall brick face.
