The chimney crown is very vital. It works as a protective concrete umbrella or roof for your whole chimney. This secures your flue and also chimney from rain and other elements.
When the chimney crown establishes fractures or comes to be damaged at all, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create extreme damages to the entire chimney if not repaired. When found early, standard repair services can be made to prevent issues from happening.
If fracturing in the chimney crown is small, the fractures can be filled with patch and a water-proof sealer can be used on top. This will safely keep water from entering.
In circumstances where there is a lot more extensive 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 only the crown. This will protect the chimney for many more years. It is essential to have a professional chimney repair check the crown, flue, and whole chimney to make sure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap protects your home in lots of ways. It keeps rain, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fireplace as well as prevents hot sparks and embers from flying out and into your roof. 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 specialists can replace your chimney cap or install a new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.
