The chimney crown is extremely vital. It functions as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your whole chimney. This safeguards your flue as well as chimney from rain and other elements.

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