Hi, we got the home inspection report on a condo we're buying. There are some basic/straight-forward issues, but the biggest concern is this chimney. This is in southern Calif----earthquake?? and the building is almost 40years old.
We had a certified chimney inspector out to check to see if there was any damage to the flue liner---none--but he's trying to tell us that that crack can just be caulked, which I don't buy. Fine---caulk a crack in a concrete driveway---but not something as structural is a chimney.
Anyway, looking for ideas on what should be done.
