Learn MoreChimney ages and weak spots in Los Alamitos
This compact town grew up near the military base, with stucco tracts from the 1950s and 1960s and plenty of apartments. A tract fireplace here is likely masonry, so at its age, the top of the stack and the flue get our first look. Marine layer mornings and cool nights keep things damp this near the coast, while freezes rarely come. The Newport-Inglewood Fault runs to the southwest, the source of the 1933 Long Beach quake, so aging masonry deserves a crack check.
Ages on These Streets
Postwar stucco tracts, with multi-family buildings making up the majority of units; only about 4 in 10 are detached.
What Wears Out First
Upper joints and caps kept damp by marine mornings, and flue tile on masonry fireplaces from the tract years.
How We Sort It
An older tract stack gets a simple breakdown: the flue condition is first, and the damp-related upkeep goes below it.
