The chimney crown is very crucial. It functions as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your whole chimney. This secures your flue and chimney from rainfall and various other elements.
When the chimney crown establishes cracks or comes to be damaged at all, it enables rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create serious damage to the entire chimney if not fixed. When found early, standard repair work can be made to prevent issues from taking place.
If fracturing in the chimney crown is minor, the fractures can be loaded with patch and a water-proof sealant can be used on top. This will securely block water from getting in.
In scenarios where there is much more substantial damage to the crown, it might 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 many more years. It's important to have a professional chimney repair inspect the crown, flue, and entire chimney to make certain all areas are safe.
A chimney cap shields your home in several ways. It keeps rainfall, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fireplace and prevents hot sparks as well as embers from flying out and into your roof. You should never run your fire place or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are made from galvanized or stainless steel, light weight aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service professionals can replace your chimney cap or set up a new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.
