How Olympia Chimney Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

Olympia Chimney builds solid products, but every brand has failure patterns. These are the five we see most often in Torrance homes, from Old Torrance bungalows to newer builds near the Del Amo Fashion Center.

• Olympia stainless steel chase covers rusting through. Many Olympia factory-built fireplaces in Torrance use a galvanized chase cover that traps water around the top of the unit. The salty air rolling in from the coast accelerates that rust. We see pinhole leaks that drip down the chase and into the firebox. The fix is a custom stainless steel replacement cover with a proper drip edge, plus sealing the chase top.
• Failing mortar joints in Olympia masonry chimneys. Torrance’s hot-dry summers and cool damp winters put real stress on brick chimneys. Water seeps into hairline cracks, the mortar swells, and then spalling starts. On Olympia masonry chimneys, we repoint the joints with mortar matched to the existing mix and the surrounding Torrance architecture. It should look like we were never there, except the chimney is solid again.
• Olympia flue liners with cracked clay tiles. We regularly find cracked flue tiles on Olympia chimneys where the original install used inferior tile or the pitch of the chimney was steep enough to shift the stack. A cracked liner won’t always show a symptom, but it absolutely shows on our camera. That’s why we run a camera inspection on every single job before we recommend anything.
• Olympia firebox panels with hairline cracks. The refractory panels inside Olympia fireplaces can crack from thermal shock, especially if the unit was used hard during cold snaps. A cracked firebox panel doesn’t always require a rebuild. We often patch with a HeatShield ceramic coating that handles the heat and looks clean. If the panel is too far gone, we source the right replacement.
• Improper flashing around Olympia chimneys. Torrance’s seasonal rain storms expose bad flashing fast. We’ve seen plenty of Olympia chimneys where the flashing wasn’t installed to spec from day one, and water rides down the chase and into the attic. We pull the old flashing, install proper step and counter flashing, and seal it right. The after photos show exactly what changed.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

Here’s what happens when you book a repair with us:

1. 1
   Call and talk to a person. You call (424) 358-3187. A live human answers, asks about your Olympia chimney symptoms, and books a window that works. You get a tracked arrival time, not a four hour guess.
2. 2
   The tech arrives and does the camera inspection. We run a camera up the flue and take photos of everything: the firebox, the liner, the smoke chamber, the chase. You see every photo before we recommend a single repair.
3. 3
   We make the parts decision with you. If the repair needs parts, we’ll tell you whether the OEM Olympia part makes sense or whether a quality aftermarket option from brands like DuraFlex or HeatShield will perform as well or better. We don’t default to the cheapest thing on the truck. We default to the right thing for your chimney.
4. 4
   The repair gets done. Repointing, flashing replacement, waterproofing, firebox patching, or liner work. Our techs are uniformed and background-checked.
5. 5
   We test and document everything. After the repair, we run the camera again or perform a smoke test where it makes sense. You get before-and-after photos by text.
6. 6
   You get the written guarantee. Every repair carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right, and the second visit is free.
