The chimney crown is very crucial. It acts as a protective concrete umbrella or roof for your whole chimney. This safeguards your flue and chimney from rain and other elements.
When the chimney crown establishes cracks or ends up being damaged whatsoever, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create extreme damages to the entire chimney if not repaired. When uncovered early, basic repair services can be made to prevent issues from taking place.
If splitting in the chimney crown is small, the cracks can be loaded with patch and a water-proof sealant can be applied on top. This will securely keep water from entering.
In circumstances where there is more extensive damage to the crown, it may be needed to rebuild it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild only the crown. This will secure the chimney for a lot more years. It is essential to have a professional chimney repair check the crown, flue, and whole chimney to make sure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap protects your home in several ways. It keeps rain, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fireplace and prevents hot sparks and also embers from flying out and into your roofing. You must never run your fireplace or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are made from 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 do not have one yet.

A considerable amount of air movement can leak in through the chimney from the outside, making your house really feel colder in the wintertime.
