The chimney crown is really important. It acts as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your entire chimney. This shields your flue and chimney from rain and other elements.
When the chimney crown establishes fractures or ends up being damaged at all, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can cause severe damages to the entire chimney if not repaired. When uncovered early, basic repairs can be made to prevent issues from happening.
If splitting in the chimney crown is minor, the splits can be filled with patch and a water-proof sealer can be applied on top. This will securely prevent water from entering.

Chimney caps are made from galvanized or stainless-steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service professionals can replace your chimney cap or set up a new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
