Sealing and Rebuilding Chimney Crowns
Crown work begins with a free look from the roof and a written price for each option.
A yearly look at the crown
Under NFPA 211, the national standard covering chimneys and fireplaces, a chimney should have an inspection at least once a year. The crown is one of the parts that changes quietly between those checks. A hairline crack opens, a sealant joint at the flue lets go, a chip falls off the edge.
Catching those changes early keeps crown work small. When our pros sweep or inspect your chimney, the crown gets a look from the roof, and anything that needs attention is written up with an upfront price.
How a crown rebuild day goes
A rebuild starts with roof protection and safe access. The old crown is broken out in pieces and lowered by hand. The top of the masonry is cleaned and repaired, forms are set with the overhang and drip built in, and the bond break goes around each flue before the new crown is placed and finished to its slope.
The fresh crown then needs time to cure, and our team explains any limit on using the fireplace while it does. Before leaving, they clean up, check the flue tiles and the cap and walk you through what was done.
Taking the cap off for crown work
A crown repair usually means removing the cap, since it is fastened to the tile or to the crown itself. The cap goes back on once the crown has cured, or a new cap is fitted if the old one is worn.
Our pros check the old cap as it comes off and tell you whether it is worth refitting. If a new cap makes sense, it is priced separately, and the crown is planned with a sound surface for its fasteners.
What the crown estimate shows
Your written estimate names the repair, whether sealing, patching or a new crown, and lists the related items on their own lines, such as the flue joints, the top brick courses, the cap and any flashing. If both sealing and rebuilding could work, both are priced.
There are no hidden fees, nothing is added without your approval, and our 100% satisfaction guarantee covers the work. Any open flue is covered at the end of each work day, and the debris is hauled away.
