The chimney crown is very important. It acts as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your whole chimney. This safeguards your flue and also chimney from rainfall and other elements.
When the chimney crown develops fractures or ends up being damaged in any way, it permits rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can cause severe damage to the entire chimney if not repaired. When found early, basic repair work can be made to stop issues from occurring.
If cracking in the chimney crown is small, the splits can be filled with patch and a water-proof sealer can be applied on top. This will safely keep water from getting in.
In situations where there is much more substantial damage to the crown, it might be needed to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's feasible to rebuild just the crown.

A chimney cap protects your home in several ways. It keeps rainfall, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fireplace and prevents hot sparks and embers from flying out and into your roofing. You must never run your fire place or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless steel, light weight aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service technicians can replace your chimney cap or install a brand-new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.
