Learn MoreChimney ages and weak spots in Commerce
Mostly an industrial city, Commerce still has about 12,000 residents, living in Rosewood, Bandini and similar small pockets. Homes there lean postwar, so a brick or block stack, sometimes with gas logs, is the usual starting point. Gusty, dry days in the cooler months can shake a weak cap off its fastenings. Older brick in these pockets also has a history, since the 1933 Long Beach shock hurt unreinforced masonry around the southern county.
Ages on These Streets
A little under a third of homes predate 1950, with the rest mostly postwar houses tucked between industrial areas.
What Wears Out First
Worn mortar on the older stacks in the residential pockets, and caps that have worked loose after dry autumn wind.
How We Sort It
Even a small home gets a full list, with items that affect a safe fire separated from wear to watch.
