About this service

A chimney cap is the metal cover at the very top that keeps out rain, debris, and animals. If yours is missing, rusted, or loose, water can pool inside and cause internal damage or blockages. We repair or replace these caps to ensure your flue stays clear and dry, preventing hazardous build-up. This is a vital step in routine home maintenance. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Summer offers clear, dry weather, making it the perfect time to handle exterior masonry repairs. Since your fireplace is likely dormant, we can complete structural work without disrupting your home life. From tuckpointing to chimney cap replacements, we tackle the projects that are harder to manage during the cold months. Call us now to get your repairs finished while the weather stays cooperative.

Is chimney repair covered under homeowners insurance?

What is the 3 to 10 rule for chimneys?

It also needs to be at least two feet taller than any part of the building within ten feet. This helps prevent downdrafts and fire hazards.

Can a handyman repair a chimney?
