Is chimney repair covered under homeowners insurance?

In San Francisco, homeowners insurance may cover chimney repairs if the damage was caused by a covered peril, such as a fire or earthquake. However, damage due to normal wear and tear or lack of maintenance is generally not covered. It's always recommended to review your policy or contact your insurance provider for specifics.

What is the 3 to 10 rule for chimneys?

The 3 to 10 rule is a critical safety guideline for chimney installations and repairs. It states that combustible materials should be at least 10 feet away from the exterior of the chimney and 3 feet away from the flue. This helps prevent fires and is a standard safety measure in San Francisco.
