Visible cracks, loose concrete, and worn edges can point to chimney crown deterioration. Indoor dampness may also warrant an inspection, though the crown is only one possible leak source.
Watch for:
An assessment helps identify the cause before you commit to repairs.
We assess the crown and surrounding components to recommend suitable work. The repair should address the damage and how water reaches it.
Chimney Crown Replacement and Custom Installation
An assessment helps define the scope and estimate.
Our process starts with the condition of your chimney and ends with guidance on caring for the completed work.

A chimney crown covers the top of a masonry chimney around the flue openings. Its sloped surface helps direct rainwater away from the brickwork. An appropriate overhang helps keep runoff away from the chimney’s sides.
The crown differs from a chimney cap. A cap covers the flue opening, while the crown protects the surrounding masonry. Some chimneys have a mortar wash instead of a formed concrete crown.
Repair may suit limited damage in a sound crown. Replacement may make more sense when deterioration affects much of the structure.
