The chimney crown is really important. It serves as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your entire chimney. This shields your flue as well as chimney from rain and various other elements.
When the chimney crown develops fractures or ends up being damaged in any way, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create extreme damage to the whole chimney if not repaired. When found early, standard repair services can be made to prevent issues from happening.
If splitting in the chimney crown is small, the cracks can be filled with patch and a waterproof sealer can be applied on top. This will safely keep water from entering.
In situations where there is more extensive damage to the crown, it may be necessary to rebuild it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's feasible to rebuild just the crown. This will secure the chimney for many more years. It is necessary to have a professional chimney repair inspect the crown, flue, and entire chimney to ensure all areas are safe.

Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless steel, light weight aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service professionals can replace your chimney cap or install a new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
