Chimney Inspection in Rancho Cordova, CA

Chimney Inspection for Rancho Cordova Homeowners

Rancho Cordova is really two towns as far as chimneys are concerned. The older core north of Folsom Boulevard was built quickly in the 1950s and early 1960s to house Aerojet and Mather Field workers, and that housing was economical: modest masonry fireplaces, thin crowns, and minimal detailing. Then there is the newer Rancho east of Sunrise — Anatolia, Stone Creek and the surrounding developments — built from the late 1990s onward, where almost everything is a direct-vent gas appliance or a factory-built firebox. That split means our work here alternates between genuine masonry repair on tired sixty-year-old stacks and annual gas appliance service on units barely twenty years old. The newer gas installations are the ones most often neglected, because owners assume a gas fireplace with no soot has nothing that needs checking.

A sharp divide between 1950s Aerojet-era tract masonry with thin crowns and minimal detailing north of Folsom Boulevard, and late-1990s-onward direct-vent gas and factory-built fireboxes in Anatolia and Stone Creek. Gas appliances in the newer subdivisions are routinely unserviced because they produce no visible soot.
