Chimney Level 2 Inspection in Malibu, CA

What to expect from a chimney level 2 inspection visit in Malibu

A Malibu chimney cap has to hold up on two fronts at once: wind-driven embers off the Woolsey Fire corridor and steady salt air rolling in from the Pacific. We spec marine-grade metal and tight mesh work over a standard spark arrestor, since ordinary hardware fails here first.

Inspections in this fire zone start with the cap itself, since a corroded or poorly seated spark arrestor is the weak point once embers start moving. We check weld quality and mesh condition every year, not just whether the hardware is present.
