Lake Park damper travel after a free inspection
Originally founded as Kelsey City and incorporated in 1923 directly on the Lake Worth Lagoon, Lake Park's older masonry chimneys take steady salt-air exposure, which accelerates mortar joint erosion and metal damper and flashing corrosion that inland towns rarely face.
Lake Park (ZIP 33403) is not one chimney type. Streets toward Kelsey City historic district, the Intracoastal waterfront, and the Intracoastal waterfront on the Lake Worth Lagoon sit in 1920s Kelsey City-era and mid-century homes, many with brick or block masonry chimneys on older bungalow and frame construction.
This page is for a Kelsey City historic district damper that sticks, will not close, is warped, or is missing — the throat plate, not a listed gas valve. You approve a written proposal for the Intracoastal waterfront address before anyone orders parts or opens masonry.
