The chimney crown is really crucial. It acts as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your entire chimney. This shields your flue and chimney from rain and various other elements.
When the chimney crown establishes fractures or comes to be damaged at all, it enables rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can trigger serious damages to the whole chimney if not repaired. When found early, standard repair services can be made to stop issues from happening.
If splitting in the chimney crown is small, the cracks can be filled with patch and a water-proof sealer can be applied on top. This will safely keep water from getting in.
In scenarios where there is much more substantial damage to the crown, it may be necessary to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild just the crown.

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