Learn MoreWhat we look after in Santa Fe Springs
Oil shaped Santa Fe Springs, which incorporated in 1957, and homes cluster in pockets between the industrial land. Few predate 1950. Most chimneys here are about 60 or 70 years old, which is a fair age for a first proper look if nobody has had one lately. A thrust fault lies under this part of the basin, the Puente Hills, which is one reason not to assume old brick is sound. Moderate weather and some marine air go easy on crowns and caps, so hidden movement is the bigger question.
