Why chimney inspection matters for Burbank homes
Seasonal brush fire exposure off the Verdugo Mountains is exactly why local fire code requires a spark arrestor on every chimney in Burbank. Inspectors treat a missing or corroded arrestor as a code violation on the report, not an optional upgrade. A standard visit here includes level 1: visual inspection for annual maintenance, level 2: camera inspection for real estate or damage assessment, and level 3: invasive inspection for suspected hidden damage, so the scope matches what the chimney actually needs instead of a flat estimate written before anyone climbs the roof.
