Chimney Crown Repair

The chimney crown helps shed water away from the chimney structure. Cracks can allow moisture to penetrate and cause further damage over time.

Chimney Cap Replacement

Chimney caps help protect the flue opening from weather, debris, and animals. Rusted or damaged caps are a common issue on older Connecticut homes.
