Redwood City covers more variety than any other city we serve, and the three main areas need three different conversations. Emerald Hills and Farm Hills are wooded, sloping and full of mid-century homes with exterior chimneys under heavy tree cover, so debris and draft are the recurring themes. The older central neighborhoods around Mount Carmel and downtown hold genuine period housing, some of it Victorian, with tall original masonry that needs matched materials when it is repaired. Then there is Redwood Shores, built out on the bay margin from the 1980s, where the systems are overwhelmingly prefabricated metal in framed chases and the failures are corrosion and chase covers rather than mortar. Three eras, three sets of parts, one city.
Three distinct building eras in one city: wooded hillside mid-century homes in Emerald Hills and Farm Hills with exterior stacks and heavy debris load, genuine period masonry including Victorians around Mount Carmel and downtown, and 1980s-onward prefabricated metal systems in framed chases out at Redwood Shores.

Questions
Almost certainly yes. Redwood Shores was built out from the 1980s with factory-built metal systems rather than masonry, so it is inspected and repaired like an appliance. The chase cover and the metal chimney sections are what we look at first.
It does. Overhanging canopy drops debris into an open flue and also disturbs the draft. A capped flue with a screen handles the debris, and if the stack is short relative to the surrounding trees we will tell you whether height is contributing to the smoking.
