Why Chimney Caps Matter
Chimney caps are one of the most cost-effective ways to prevent major (and expensive) chimney problems.
- Rain & Moisture – Prevents water from entering the chimney and causing structural damage or mold
- Animals & Pests – Keeps birds, squirrels, bats, and other critters from nesting inside your chimney
- Fire Safety – Stops sparks and embers from escaping your chimney and starting a fire on your roof
- Downdrafts – Helps prevent cold air from blowing back into your home
- Flue Protection – Prolongs the life of your flue liner by shielding it from debris and water damage

We’ll inspect your chimney and let you know if your cap is missing, damaged, or needs to be upgraded. We recommend a professional inspection if:

"They did a full re-roofing of my 23-year-old roof. I had lots of missing shingles throughout the years of strong wind gusts and heavy storms and needed a roof replacement that wasn't going to force me to take out a 2nd mortgage!"

Chimney Cap FAQs
What Is a chimney cap?#
A chimney cap is a protective covering installed at the top of your chimney flue. Usually made from stainless steel, copper, or galvanized metal, chimney caps help seal your chimney against the elements, without blocking ventilation or airflow.
Why do I need a chimney cap?#
A chimney cap protects your home by keeping rain, snow, leaves, and animals out of your chimney. Without one, water can enter the flue, causing rust, masonry damage, and even roof leaks. It also helps stop sparks from escaping the chimney — reducing the risk of roof fires.
What materials are best for chimney caps?#
Stainless steel and copper are the most durable and long-lasting materials for chimney caps. Stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance and a clean finish, while copper provides an elegant appearance that naturally develops a patina over time. Both options require little maintenance and can last decades.
How much does a chimney cap installation cost?#
The cost of a chimney cap depends on the size, material, and whether it’s custom-made. Custom copper or multi-flue caps may cost more but offer greater longevity and visual appeal.
Can you install a chimney cap on any type of chimney?#
Yes. Our team installs chimney caps on masonry, prefabricated, and metal chimneys. We take detailed measurements on-site to ensure a perfect fit and proper ventilation for your specific chimney system.
How long does a chimney cap last?#
A properly installed stainless steel or copper chimney cap can last 20–50 years or more with minimal upkeep. Regular inspections (especially after severe weather) help ensure the cap remains secure and fully functional over time.
