Chimney fires can cause massive devastation to a home. The flames from a chimney fire can quickly escape to the walls and roof, engulfing your home in flames within a matter of minutes. Your home is a priceless possession and our number one priority is to help you protect it. We never want to see our friends and neighbors face the pain and loss caused by a home fire. But there is good news-most chimney fires are preventable with regular chimney inspections and sweepings. In many cases, chimney fires are caused by creosote buildup.
The chimney crown is the top part of your chimney and plays a critical role in protecting your chimney from weather-related damage and keeping your house dry. A chimney crown (also called the mortar cap) is the masonry roof that covers the top of your chimney, stopping water from penetrating into the masonry below. Not to be confused with your chimney cap (a separate mechanism that is attached to the top of the flue pipe), the crown is usually a wider masonry or concrete area at the top of the chimney.
Every fireplace should have a proper chimney cap. A chimney cap is usually a black or silver manufactured box that sits on top of your chimney. Obviously, a damaged chimney cap can cause a variety of problems. Mr. Smokestack Chimney Service specializes in repairing chimney caps, using the most advanced materials and techniques available. If you need a new chimney cap, Mr. Smokestack sells and installs a wide range of chimney caps in several different styles. The type of chimney cap you need may depend on the type of flue you have in your chimney.
