Leaks

Caps, Crowns, & Dampers

At the top of the chimney, the crown, a cement slab, seals the deal and prevents water entry. But when the crown cracks, deteriorates, wears thin, or just doesn’t do its job because of poor construction, water flows to the scene and quickly gets to work destroying the chimney. Also, keeping the flue free of obstructions and moisture is one of the best and most important things you can do for your chimney system, and when you choose a quality chimney cap or top-sealing damper, you can expect a lifetime of protection.

Chimney Construction

At the top of the chimney, the crown, a cement slab, seals the deal and prevents water entry.

  • If the crown is responsible for your chimney leak, our team can promptly and professionally repair or rebuild it to keep water out for good.
  • The ideal chimney cap will cover all surface areas of the chimney and provide water protection to the entire exterior top.
  • If the damper is at issue, we will replace your old energy-inefficient, heat-losing damper with a new top-sealing damper, which will also serve as protection against water entry.
