Concord is genuinely inland, and the climate difference from the Peninsula changes what happens to a chimney here. Summers run hot and dry for months, winters get properly cold by Bay Area standards, and that annual swing works masonry harder than the mild coastal cycle does: crowns crack, mortar opens up and sealed joints fail faster under repeated expansion and contraction. Wood heat is also used far more seriously here than in the cities nearer the water, and a fireplace burned most evenings through a Concord winter accumulates creosote at a rate that genuinely warrants an annual sweep. The housing is largely 1950s through 1970s across Dana Estates, Ygnacio Valley and Clayton Valley, with older stock closer to Todos Santos in the original downtown.
A true inland climate with hot dry summers and genuinely cold winters, so the annual expansion and contraction cycle cracks crowns and opens mortar faster than on the coast. Wood heat is used heavily through the winter, making annual sweeping a real requirement rather than a precaution. Housing mostly 1950s-1970s with older stock near Todos Santos.

Questions
Every year without question, and if you are getting through more than a cord a season it is worth a mid-season check as well. Concord households burn far more than our coastal customers and the creosote accumulation reflects that.
The inland temperature swing. Concord masonry expands through long hot summers and contracts through cold winters far more than it does nearer the bay, and that cycle opens cracks in a rigid crown. A flexible crown coating handles the movement better than a rigid patch.
