Learn MoreChimney ages and weak spots in Montebello
Oil and farmland built this city after 1917, and older areas still have their bungalows while postwar stucco covers much of the rest. A bungalow's chimney is due a mortar and tile check, while a postwar one may need attention higher up. Montebello took damage in 1987, when the epicenter of the Whittier Narrows quake lay just east of town. It runs warmer than the coast, and rain arrives mostly from November through March, soaking any crown that the summer heat has already cracked.
Ages on These Streets
Bungalows from the early oil years, postwar stucco across much of the city, and hill-area homes to the north.
What Wears Out First
Tile and old joints on bungalows, then crowns on postwar stacks that bake in summer and soak in winter.
How We Sort It
Damage from shaking gets separated from plain aging, so you can tell what needs a fix and what needs a watch.
