This page is for Huntington Beach homeowners who bought an Olympia Chimney product between 2015 and 2023 and need to know whether the repair is worth doing, what it should cost, and who can actually get the parts.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney stainless-steel liner collars (300-series and 400-series) develop crevice corrosion where the collar meets the flue tile in Huntington Beach’s salt-air environment. The marine layer accelerates pitting at the weld seam, which most flashlight inspections miss. We pull the collar, scan the flue with our camera, and replace with either an OEM Olympia collar or a DuraFlex equivalent rated for salt-air exposure - whichever the written estimate specifies.
• Olympia Chimney Gelco-style chase covers on second-story chases in Huntington Beach’s Seacliff and Downtown neighborhoods pool water at the corners because the original pitch was cut flat for aesthetic reasons. After three to five years the galvanized edge rusts through. We fabricate a replacement with a proper cricket and drip edge, or source a Gelco pre-formed cover when the chase dimensions match standard sizing.
• Olympia Chimney’s older masonry-compatible flue liners (pre-2019 production) suffer thermal shock cracking when homeowners run short, hot fires - common in Huntington Beach where temperatures rarely justify all-day burns. The crack propagates vertically and shows up on camera as a hairline at first, then a gap. We sleeve with a HeatShield cerfractory sealant application when the crack is under 1/8 inch, or pull a new DuraFlex liner when the damage is structural.
• Olympia Chimney’s bolt-on chimney caps with mesh spark arrestors clog with cottonwood debris from the Newland Street Wetlands corridor, then trap moisture against the flue collar. The mesh corrodes from the inside out. We clean the flue, replace the cap with a Famco stainless unit with wider mesh spacing for that specific debris profile, and document the flue condition under Haven Standard Clause 4.
• Olympia Chimney’s poured refractory smoke chamber mixes slump and crack where the chamber throat narrows, especially in Huntington Beach’s 1960s ranch homes with exterior chimneys that see rapid temperature swings. The camera shows a rough, pyrolyzed surface that accelerates creosote buildup. We parge smooth with HeatShield ChamberTech or, when the slumping exceeds 2 inches, rebuild with cast refractory and a new throat frame.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers, checks our calendar, and books a Level 2 inspection slot. We text the assigned technician’s name and photo the morning of.
2. 2
   Camera-scan inspection. We run the camera the full flue length, photograph the crown, cap, flashing, and smoke chamber, and record liner condition readings. Clause 4 of the Haven Standard requires this photo record on every job - we’ve done it since 2009.
3. 3
   Written estimate on-site. Corrine Halstead or the assigned tech prices the repair before leaving the driveway: OEM Olympia part or quality aftermarket, labor hours, and warranty term. No “call the office for pricing.” The camera doesn’t lie and neither does the written estimate.
4. 4
   Parts procurement through Haven network. We source Olympia Chimney, DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, or Famco components depending on what the job specifies, with delivery typically 2-3 business days.
5. 5
   Repair and test. We complete the repair, run a post-work camera pass, and test draft and spillage with a manometer. The customer receives photos, the written warranty, and the invoice.
6. 6
   365-Day Done Right follow-up. If anything fails, we return and make it right. Clause 1 of the Haven Standard - have it in writing, and we do.
