Chimney Crown Repair

The chimney crown is the concrete or mortar cap that covers the top of your chimney, sealing off the masonry from rain, snow, and debris. It’s designed to shed water away from the flue and the brickwork below, acting as the first line of defense against the elements. A much better option is a ChimGuard Full Coverage Chimney Cap which provides the Ultimate Chimney protection.

Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles, harsh winters, and constant exposure to moisture can cause the crown to crack or crumble. When that happens, water can seep into the chimney structure, leading to everything from rusted components to loose bricks and damaged liners. A full-coverage chimney cap from ChimGuard stops that damage in its tracks and extends the life of your chimney and features a lifetime replacement warranty.

Ignoring crown damage can lead to major problems. Water is a chimney’s worst enemy, and a broken crown gives it a direct path to your chimney’s interior structure. Over time, this can cause interior leaks, mold, deteriorated masonry, and costly structural repairs.

Many homeowners don’t even realize their crown is damaged until an inspection reveals the issue, which is why regular maintenance and early repairs are so important. After repairing your chimney crown, we will install a ChimGuard full-coverage chimney cap which will provide you with the ultimate chimney protection.
