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

This can create extreme damages to the entire chimney if not fixed. When uncovered early, basic repair services can be made to prevent issues from occurring.
If cracking in the chimney crown is small, the cracks can be filled with patch and a water-proof sealer can be used on top. This will securely block water from getting in.
