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 rain and various other elements.

Chimney caps are made from galvanized or stainless-steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service specialists can replace your chimney cap or install a brand-new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
