The chimney crown is really important. It serves as a protective concrete umbrella or roof for your entire chimney. This protects your flue and also chimney from rain and other elements.
When the chimney crown establishes cracks or ends up being damaged whatsoever, 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 found early, standard repair work can be made to avoid issues from taking place.
If splitting in the chimney crown is minor, the cracks can be filled with patch and a waterproof sealer can be used on top. This will securely prevent water from getting in.
In scenarios where there is much more extensive damage to the crown, it may be needed 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's important to have a professional chimney repair inspect the crown, flue, and entire chimney to make certain all areas are safe.

Chimney caps are made from galvanized or stainless steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service professionals can replace your chimney cap or mount a new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.
