Chimney Service and Leak Repair in Hidden Hills, CA
Hidden Hills homes often have more than one chimney, and each has its own crown, cap and flashing to keep watertight. Stone chimneys on the ranch homes have many more mortar joints than brick ones, and every open joint is a path for water into the core. When a family room ceiling shows a stain, we check every stack on the roof, not only the one closest to the mark. The city sits at the foot of the hills where valley heat meets the cooler air off the mountains, and winter rain comes in a few strong storms. Big lots mean big trees, and leaves and needles pile up behind chimneys and in roof valleys. Brush on the slopes nearby makes a capped, screened flue a sensible choice.
