Learn MoreWhat we look after in Glendora
Around Glendora Village, a few homes from the 1900s and 1920s still carry site-built brick that is open to mortar wear. Most of town came later, with 80% built before 1980. Age sets the questions we ask, then the flue answers them. Fire took homes in the north of town in 2014, so ember screens are no abstract matter on the upper streets. Foothill sun and big daily temperature changes also wear on mortar and metal, and 1987 hurt older chimneys across the valley.
The Houses
Around Glendora the stock runs to homes from the 1900s and 1920s near the Village, postwar tracts, and hillside houses above them.
Before the First Fire
Up the hill, confirm a sound screen before anything else, and on older brick have someone test the joints for soft mortar.
Care of the Room
Your floor stays under drop cloths from door to hearth, and any object lifted from the mantel returns to its place.
Close By
Glendora stops sometimes fall alongside Claremont, Azusa, San Dimas.
