The chimney crown is very crucial. It acts as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your entire chimney. This safeguards your flue and chimney from rainfall and other elements.
When the chimney crown develops cracks or ends up being damaged whatsoever, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can cause severe damages to the whole chimney if not repaired. When found early, standard repairs can be made to stop issues from happening.
If breaking in the chimney crown is minor, the fractures can be filled with patch and a water-proof sealer can be used on top. This will securely block water from getting in.
In scenarios where there is more extensive damage to the crown, it may be necessary to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild only the crown.

Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service professionals can replace your chimney cap or mount a brand-new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.
