Why chimney rebuilds 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 partial rebuild (above roofline), full chimney reconstruction, and earthquake damage repair and retrofit, so the scope matches what the chimney actually needs instead of a flat estimate written before anyone climbs the roof.
