The chimney crown is really crucial. It works as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your entire chimney. This safeguards your flue as well as chimney from rainfall and other elements.
When the chimney crown develops fractures or becomes damaged in any way, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create serious damages to the whole chimney if not fixed. When uncovered early, basic repair services can be made to prevent issues from taking place.
If splitting in the chimney crown is minor, the fractures can be filled with patch and a waterproof sealer can be used on top. This will safely block water from entering.
In scenarios where there is more extensive damage to the crown, it might be necessary to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's feasible to rebuild only the crown. This will safeguard the chimney for a lot more years. It is necessary to have a professional chimney repair examine the crown, flue, and whole chimney to make certain all areas are safe.

Chimney caps are made of 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 do not have one yet.
