Why chimney rebuilds matters here in Encino
Valley heat and the Santa Ana winds that sweep through this area put real stress on chimney caps, and a well fabricated cap with tight seams holds its seal far longer than a stamped, thin one. Fireplaces built with better hardware from the start need less correction down the line. A typical visit covers partial rebuild (above roofline), full chimney reconstruction, and earthquake damage repair and retrofit, so the scope reflects what's actually happening at the chimney rather than a number picked out of the air.
