Learn MoreWhat we look after in Irwindale
Irwindale is known for gravel mining along the San Gabriel River, and its population is under 1,400. Most residents own detached houses in small pockets. With so few homes, each fireplace is simply its own case, and we treat it that way. Heat in summer and rain from November through March age any crown or cap here at a slow, steady pace. Whittier Narrows reached this far in 1987, and regional no-burn days limit wood fires each winter.
The Houses

Before the First Fire

Care of the Room
Family homes here keep their furniture where it is wherever possible, with soft covers close around the firebox.
