Chimney Service in Whittier

Whittier is one of the most historically layered cities in Los Angeles County — founded by Quakers in 1887, birthplace of Richard Nixon, and home to one of the best-preserved historic downtown districts in the San Gabriel Valley. Uptown Whittier along Greenleaf Avenue contains 1890s–1920s commercial and residential architecture, and the surrounding residential neighborhoods extend through 1920s–1950s bungalows and ranch homes into the Whittier Hills communities above. The city experienced the 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquake — a 5.9 magnitude event centered just three miles north — which caused the most concentrated chimney liner damage of any LA County city relative to its size.

What Whittier Homeowners Need to Know

Whittier's proximity to the 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquake epicenter makes it one of the highest-priority markets in LA County for earthquake-related chimney liner inspection. Many homes here sustained liner cracks from the 1987 event that were never assessed, then experienced additional damage in 1994. The Whittier Hills communities above Colima Road have older custom homes with masonry systems and hillside exposure. SCAQMD curtailment applies.

Did You Know?

The 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquake was centered at a depth of only 9 miles directly beneath the city — shallower and therefore more destructive to surface structures than the 1994 Northridge quake. Post-event surveys identified chimney damage in more than 40% of pre-1960 Whittier homes inspected.

Common Questions — Whittier Chimney Service

My Whittier home was built in 1952 and has never had a chimney inspection. What should I expect?+
In a 1952 Whittier home, we typically find the combined effects of both major local earthquakes — the 1987 Whittier Narrows and 1994 Northridge events — in the form of hairline cracks and joint separations in the clay tile liner. The Level 2 camera inspection documents all of this with photos and a written report. Catching these cracks before they widen further is far less expensive than waiting for them to require full liner replacement.

What California Homeowners Say

Real reviews from homeowners across California

Michael T.

Los Angeles · November 2024

They showed up on time, laid drop cloths everywhere, and the chimney was done in 90 minutes. The technician walked me through the inspection photos and explained what he found. Absolutely zero mess. Booked them again for next year already.

Sandra R.

Pasadena · October 2024

Used them for a Level 2 inspection before closing on our 1940s Craftsman. They produced a full written report with photos that our lender accepted same day. Found a cracked flue tile that the previous home inspector completely missed. Worth every dollar.

James K.

San Diego · December 2024

Best price I found after calling four companies, and the quality was better too. The technician was a true professional — CSIA certified, explained everything, no upsell pressure. The fireplace drafts perfectly now. Highly recommend.

Patricia L.

Sacramento · January 2025

Scheduled online Monday, they were here Wednesday morning. Cleaned the chimney and replaced our deteriorated chimney cap in the same visit. The chimney was caked with stage 2 creosote — we had no idea. The technician was patient answering all my questions.

David M.

Oakland · February 2025

Had an issue with smoke backing into the house every time we lit a fire. They diagnosed a damaged damper plate and replaced it the same day. Problem solved completely. The technician explained that our previous sweep had missed this — now I know who to call going forward.

Jennifer W.

Irvine · March 2025

Great service overall. They cleaned the dryer vent and chimney in one visit. The vent had a significant lint build-up — clothes are drying in one cycle again. Would give 5 stars but scheduling took a couple of days due to their busy season.
