Chimney Service and Leak Repair in Santa Paula, CA
Santa Paula chimneys deal with irrigation as much as rain. Sprinklers and orchard water hitting the base of a chimney can keep brick wet right through the dry months, and we often trace white stains on the lower courses to a misaimed sprinkler head rather than a roof leak. Brick stacks near downtown more often leak at the top, through worn crowns and open joints. Inland summers get hot and dry, and winter rain comes in heavy bursts that run off the foothills. Fall Santa Ana winds dry the brick out quickly, then the first storms soak it again. The Thomas Fire started near Santa Paula in December 2017, a reminder that the spark screen on a cap matters here.
