A chimney cap is the metal cover on top that prevents rain, animals, and debris from entering your flue. If you hear banging sounds during windy days or find leaves and twigs in your fireplace, your cap might be damaged or missing. Repair companies can secure loose caps or install a new, custom-fit model to protect your system. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
