Learn MoreChimney ages and weak spots in Burbank
From Magnolia Park to the Rancho, the houses here span a long stretch, and a third of them predate 1950. Brick from before the war is prone to mortar wear and cracking, and the 1994 quake gave many chimneys a hard test. Summer here runs among the hottest around Los Angeles, and clear winter nights can bring frost. That swing is hard on crowns and joints. Hillside streets along the Verdugo Mountains also fall inside a mapped very high fire hazard zone.
Ages on These Streets
Prewar bungalows and small houses, a large band of postwar ranch homes, and fewer new units in between.
What Wears Out First
Mortar and flue tile on prewar stacks, and crowns cracked by the wide swing between Valley summer and winter nights.
How We Sort It
A flue that was shaken in 1994 and never checked gets answered first; ordinary aging is written down separately.
Getting There
About 19 miles north, from our El Segundo base. Phones open 7 AM to 7 PM.
