The chimney crown is really important. It functions as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your whole chimney. This safeguards your flue and chimney from rainfall and 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 trigger serious damage to the whole chimney if not fixed. When discovered early, basic repair work can be made to avoid issues from happening.
If splitting in the chimney crown is minor, the cracks can be filled with patch and a waterproof sealant can be used on top. This will safely prevent water from entering.
In scenarios where there is a lot more extensive damage to the crown, it might be necessary to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild just the crown. This will protect the chimney for many more years. It is very important to have a professional chimney repair check the crown, flue, and whole chimney to make sure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap safeguards your home in numerous ways. It keeps rain, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fire place and also protects against hot sparks and embers from flying out and into your roof. You should never run your fireplace or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless-steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service technicians can replace your chimney cap or mount a brand-new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.

A significant amount of airflow can leak in through the chimney from the outside, making your home feel cooler in the winter season. This can quickly add up to hundreds of dollars per year in added heating expenses.
