Learn MoreWhat we watch for in Malibu
Fire has reshaped this place: lots are still coming back from 2018 and 2025, and some old masonry stacks went down with their houses. Those still standing took heat, ash and salt together. We scan them as survivors, not as ordinary flues, and say what we think can stay. Metal up top corrodes fast in salt spray, and shore wind works on whatever has come loose. A fault named for this coast follows the shoreline, while the 2024 Franklin and 2007 Corral fires show how close burning canyon brush can come.
What Could Feed a Fire
A chimney that survived a nearby fire with hidden heat damage, or embers finding a salt-rusted cap on a windy night.
How Fumes Could Get In
Tile stressed by wildfire heat, or joints opened along the Malibu Coast Fault, behind masonry that looks intact.
What We Check First
Any standing chimney that lived through a fire, by camera, before anyone trusts it or builds around it.

We often visit Agoura Hills, Point Mugu and Las Flores on the same day as Malibu.
