Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.
Chimney Company in Beverly Hills, CA
Chimney repair in Beverly Hills usually means working on a 1920s clay-tile flue inside a Spanish Colonial Revival or Tudor home, where the liner is cracked, the crown is spalling, or an original cap has rusted through. The dry Mediterranean climate hides problems for years, then winter rains find every fissure. We handle the full system, firebox to cap, with materials specified for the job and sourced from professional trade suppliers. Call (866) 632-1828 for a repair assessment.
Why Beverly Hills Homes Are Different
Beverly Hills’ residential core was built out in the 1920s and 1930s, and that era defines most of the chimney work we do here. The flats hold large Spanish Colonial Revival and Tudor estates, many with multiple original fireplaces, clay tile liners, and decorative stucco or brick chimney stacks. These systems are ninety to a hundred years old. Clay tiles crack from decades of thermal cycling, mortar joints between tiles erode, and crowns that were poured when Herbert Hoover was president have lost their slope and now pond water. None of this shows up until it does.
The hillsides are a different inventory entirely. Mid-century moderns with cantilevered fireplaces sit on slopes where roof access means setting up on a grade, and the flue often runs at an offset angle that makes standard sweeping equipment useless. Then there are the tear-down rebuilds, which sound new but frequently retain the original chimney as an architectural feature while the rest of the house is new construction. The chimney is still 1929. The interior is 2024. That disconnect is where water intrusion and draft problems hide.
Climate matters too. Beverly Hills gets almost no rain between April and November, so a cracked crown or failing flashing can go unnoticed for eight months. Then the first winter storm drives water into the flue and down into the firebox, and what presents as a small wall stain is actually a liner that needs attention. Santa Ana winds add another layer: sustained wind events push debris and soot back down the flue and create downdraft complaints in homes that draft perfectly the rest of the year.

Our Main Beverly Hills Services
Beverly Hills homeowners call us most often for two things: an annual sweep on an older fireplace they actually use, and a dryer vent that has never been cleaned since the house was purchased. Both are fire-safety services, and both are handled in-house.
Chimney Sweep in Beverly Hills
A chimney sweep in Beverly Hills is rarely a quick drive-up job. Many of these homes are behind gates, and scheduling runs through a property manager or household staff rather than the owner directly. Once on site, the work is often hand-brushing rather than rotary sweeping, because ornate stucco and brick exteriors on 1920s and 1930s chimneys can’t take aggressive equipment. We clean the flue, check the liner and crown condition, and report what we find. See Chimney Sweep in Beverly Hills for full details on what the job involves in this city.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Beverly Hills
Dryer vent cleaning in Beverly Hills is a dedicated fire-safety service, not an add-on. Many of these homes have long vertical vent runs through walls and out the roof, and lint accumulates faster in those configurations than in short horizontal runs. We run professional-grade equipment through the full vent length, confirm airflow, and treat the vent as its own system. For specifics on how we handle longer runs and roof terminations in Beverly Hills, see Dryer Vent Cleaning in Beverly Hills.
Chimney Repair in Beverly Hills
Chimney repair in Beverly Hills means working on clay-tile-lined flues in homes built between the 1920s and 1930s, where the liner has cracked, the crown has deteriorated, or the original cap has failed. Beverly Hills’ long dry season masks these problems until winter rains expose them, and by then water has already moved through the system. Our repair work uses professional trade brands, not hardware-store substitutes. You can see the full range of what we do on our Chimney Repair service page.
Chimney Cap Installation
Signs you need it
Water staining inside the firebox, rust streaks on the chimney exterior, or debris and nesting material pulled out during a sweep all point to a missing or failed cap.
What it costs in Beverly Hills
Chimney cap installation in Beverly Hills typically runs $180 – $540 depending on flue size and whether a custom bracket is needed for an older terra-cotta crown.
How we do it
We measure the flue opening, specify a cap from Gelco or Famco matched to the flue dimensions, and secure it to the crown with a mechanical fastener, not adhesive.
Chimney Cap Replacement
Signs you need it
A cap that is rusted through, missing sections, or letting rain in around the mounting points needs replacement rather than repair.
What it costs in Beverly Hills
Replacing an existing chimney cap in Beverly Hills typically costs $200 – $560, with the final number set by flue size and whether the old cap left rust damage on the crown.
How we do it
We remove the old cap, clean the mounting surface, and install a new cap matched to the flue dimensions and the home’s exterior finish.
Chimney Flashing Repair
Signs you need it
Water staining on the ceiling near the chimney, damp drywall in the attic, or visible gaps where the flashing meets the roofline are all flashing failures.
What it costs in Beverly Hills
Chimney flashing repair in Beverly Hills typically runs $300 – $850 depending on chimney width, roof pitch, and whether the counter-flashing can be reused.
How we do it
We cut back the old flashing, install new step and counter flashing in the correct overlap, and seal the transition to the chimney body.
Chimney Crown Repair
Signs you need it
A crown with visible cracks, spalling concrete, or a flat profile that ponds water is actively letting moisture into the chimney structure.
What it costs in Beverly Hills
Chimney crown repair in Beverly Hills typically costs $600 – $1,200, varying with crown size and whether full tear-off or overlay is the right approach.
How we do it
We remove the failing surface, form a new crown with a proper slope to shed water, and add a bond break so the crown can move without cracking.
What Chimney Repair Costs in Beverly Hills
| Item | Typical range in Beverly Hills |
|---|---|
| Chimney cap installation | $180 – $540 |
| Chimney cap replacement | $200 – $560 |
| Chimney flashing repair | $300 – $850 |
| Chimney crown repair | $600 – $1,200 |
Do I always need a chimney liner replacement when the liner is cracked?
No. Minor liner cracks can often be addressed with HeatShield resurfacing, a restoration product that seals and reinforces the existing clay tile without pulling the old liner. Full relining is only the answer when the liner has collapsed, separated at the joints, or is no longer structurally sound. We recommend replacement only when camera inspection shows it is necessary.
What happens if water keeps getting in around the chimney?
Persistent water entry usually traces to a failed crown, deteriorated flashing, or a cracked cap, and the repair path depends on which component has failed. We inspect each layer, show you the photo evidence, and recommend only the work the pictures support. Call (866) 632-1828 for a repair assessment.
Brands We Service in Beverly Hills
We work with a focused lineup of professional trade brands on Beverly Hills repair jobs: Gelco and Famco caps and covers, Olympia Chimney liner and chase components, and Copperfield for specific repair products. These are the same suppliers commercial contractors use, and parts are sourced to the job rather than picked off a shelf. See our brands for the full list.

What Beverly Hills Customers Say
"Fireplace had never drawn properly since we moved in. He found the damper was only opening halfway due to a bent linkage and fixed it in ten minutes."
- Norma Mendoza"Crown was cracked and taking water. Repaired it rather than quoting a rebuild, which the previous company had pushed hard for."
- Michelle Yang"Creosote buildup was worse than I realized. He measured it, showed me the glazing on the flue with the camera, and was honest that we were closer to a chimney fire than I wanted to hear."
