Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our Chimney Cap Replacement

Is my leak coming from a bad cap?

Often, yes. Rain/snow, rust holes, and loose caps are common. We check the top assembly so we’re not guessing from inside the home.

Why do I keep getting birds or squirrels?

Usually a torn/ missing mesh or a misfit cap. The right cap size + intact guard is what stops re-entry.

It smokes on windy days—can the cap matter?

Sometimes. A damaged/ blocked screen or a poorly matched cap can worsen draft issues. The fix has to match your flue + fuel use.

Rust: repair or replace chimney cap?

If it’s more than light surface rust, replacement is of the chimney cap usually the safer bet—rust returns fast once the metal thins out.

What does replacement of the chimney cap include?

Correct sizing, secure mounting, proper mesh, and a quick check of obvious top-end issues (as applicable). We’ll tell you in plain terms what we saw.

How fast and what affects price?

Many are short visits if access is easy. Height, pitch, and coastal exposure (harder on metal) can add time/ cost—your quote will spell that out.
