The chimney crown is very important. It works as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your whole chimney. This shields your flue and chimney from rainfall and other elements.
When the chimney crown gets fractures or ends up being damaged in any way, it enables rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create severe damages to the whole chimney if not repaired. When found early, basic repair work can be made to avoid issues from taking place.
If breaking in the chimney crown is small, the fractures can be loaded with patch and a water-proof sealer can be used on top. This will safely prevent water from getting in.
In scenarios where there is more extensive damage to the crown, it might be necessary to rebuild it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's feasible to rebuild just the crown. This will protect the chimney for a lot more years. It is necessary to have a professional chimney repair examine the crown, flue, and entire chimney to make sure all areas are safe.

Chimney caps are made of galvanized or stainless steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service technicians can replace your chimney cap or install a brand-new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
