How a Chimney Cap Protects Your Home
A properly fitted chimney cap protects the opening at the top of your flue. It helps keep several common sources of chimney trouble outside:
- Rainwater
- Melting snow
- Leaves
- Twigs
- Nesting animals
- Wind-carried debris
Keeping this material out can help limit moisture exposure and blockages inside the chimney. If the cap becomes loose, corroded, or damaged, prompt service can restore that protection before additional problems develop.
What Is the Difference Between a Chimney Cap & Chimney Crown?
A chimney cap covers the flue opening, while the chimney crown is the concrete or masonry surface surrounding the flue at the top of the chimney. Both components help protect the chimney from moisture, but they cover different areas and require different repairs.
Rust, corrosion, missing screening, or a loose fit generally indicate a cap problem. Cracks, crumbling concrete, or missing masonry around the top surface generally point to crown damage. A chimney can also have problems with both components at the same time.
A professional assessment identifies which part is allowing water or debris to enter. Kerry Tuckpointing can determine whether your chimney needs cap repair, cap replacement, crown repair, or another masonry service.
