About this service
The crown is the concrete slab at the top of the chimney that directs water away from the flue. Over time, freezing and thawing cycles cause it to crack, which allows water to seep into the brickwork. Repair companies specialize in applying flexible, waterproof sealants or pouring a new crown to stop leaks. This is vital for preventing expensive water damage to the interior of the chimney stack. It is a common maintenance task for older homes.
As temperatures drop, everyone realizes their chimney needs attention at the same time. If you haven't had an inspection this year, it is vital to clear out blockages like bird nests or leaves before your first fire. We help you beat the rush so you can safely enjoy your fireplace as soon as the weather turns.
