Learn MoreChimney ages and weak spots in Pico Rivera
Tract housing went up here mainly during the 1950s, so if the house has a fireplace, it is typically brick masonry. At this age the damper, the firebox and the top of the stack are the likely trouble spots. Just north of here, the 1987 Whittier Narrows quake did damage, and a tract chimney can keep a crack for decades. Warm, dry summers and low clouds in late spring and early summer are milder on masonry than that shaking was.
Ages on These Streets
A strong 1950s tract band, with close to 2 in 10 older homes from the farm town years.
What Wears Out First
Brick at the top of the stack and its crown, then dampers and firebox joints in these older fireplaces.
How We Sort It
A hairline crack can still rank high if the flue is behind it, and we explain that before listing smaller items.
