The chimney crown is very important. It acts as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your entire chimney. This protects your flue as well as chimney from rainfall and other elements.
When the chimney crown gets cracks or ends up being damaged at all, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create severe damage to the entire chimney if not fixed. When discovered early, basic repair work can be made to prevent issues from occurring.
If fracturing in the chimney crown is small, the splits can be loaded with patch and a water-proof sealant can be used on top. This will securely keep water from entering.
In situations where there is a lot more extensive damage to the crown, it may be needed to rebuild it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's feasible to rebuild just the crown. This will protect the chimney for many more years. It's important to have a professional chimney repair check the crown, flue, and entire chimney to ensure all areas are safe.

Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless steel, light weight 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.
