The chimney crown is extremely important. It functions as a protective concrete umbrella or roof for your entire chimney. This protects your flue and chimney from rainfall and other elements.
When the chimney crown gets fractures or comes to be damaged whatsoever, it enables rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can cause severe damages to the whole chimney if not fixed. When found early, basic repair services can be made to avoid issues from happening.
If breaking in the chimney crown is small, the cracks can be loaded with patch and a waterproof sealant can be applied on top. This will safely block water from getting in.
In circumstances 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 secure the chimney for a lot more years. It is essential to have a professional chimney repair check the crown, flue, and entire chimney to make sure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap shields your home in several ways. It keeps rainfall, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fire place and prevents hot sparks and embers from flying out and into your roofing. You should never run your fireplace or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are made of galvanized or stainless-steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service technicians can replace your chimney cap or install a brand-new one on your chimney if you do not have one yet.

It's much better to install a top sealing damper. They are less expensive, and also every efficient. A top sealing damper will keep cold drafts as well as unwanted weather outside. A considerable amount of air movement can leak in through the chimney from the exterior, making your home really feel colder in the winter season.
