Learn MoreChimney ages and weak spots in South El Monte
Homes here share blocks with light industry and warehouses, in a city better known for its employers. Still, about 2 in 3 units are detached, and if yours has a working fireplace, it is likely older than 1980, so we read the masonry for wear. Few places were closer to the 1987 Whittier Narrows quake than South El Monte, and damage reached the surrounding area. Long hot summers and cool nights have worked on crowns ever since, and dry Santa Ana gusts can pry at caps.
Ages on These Streets
Close to 8 in 10 homes predate 1980, mostly detached houses alongside apartments between industrial areas.
What Wears Out First
Cracks from close-range shaking in the older masonry, then caps and crowns tested by inland heat and dry winds.
How We Sort It
Old shaking damage is sorted apart from everyday wear, so you can see which problem is the larger one.
Getting There
