The procedure for a typical chimney repair:
Re-pointing of the mortar, replacing any damaged bricks. Set-up the forms and pour the concrete crown. If rain caps are needed they are embedded in the crown. The whole chimney is then acid washed to remove any extra mortar on the bricks. (This also cleans the bricks bringing out their color.) Then a waterproofing sealer is applied to protect the chimney.

Chimney Caps Our chimney caps are comprised of concrete and are cemented in place. They also have a ten year warranty. They protect the flue from weather especially rain. Rain can enter a flue and run down causing damage to the flue liners and brick. They will rust out metal parts of your fireplace including the damper and firebox. If you see water drip marks inside your fireplace or running out of your flues cleanout you should have a chimney cap installed! Cracked Crown
