The chimney crown is extremely vital. It works as a protective concrete umbrella or roof for your whole chimney. This secures your flue and chimney from rain and other elements.
When the chimney crown establishes fractures or becomes damaged at all, it permits rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create serious damage to the entire chimney if not fixed. When discovered early, standard repair work can be made to stop issues from taking place.

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 new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.
