With the Hollywood Fault just to the north, old mortar deserves a careful eye after any shaking. Gray May and June mornings also keep the top of a stack damp, which is rough on cheap screens.
The Houses
On Beverly Hills roofs we meet Flats houses from the twenties and thirties, postwar brick chimneys, and plenty of apartments. Each chimney gets its cap, crown and flue looked at on the first visit.
