What a cap fitting looks like

Here's how cap day goes. Our pros set up ladders and roof protection, remove the old cap if there is one, and clean the flue top and crown where the new cap will sit.

The new cap is set square over the flue, fastened with clamps or bolts sized for it, and checked for wobble. You'll see the finished cap from the ground, hear how it's fastened, and get the old one hauled away. Most fittings are done in one trip when the size is on hand.

Local Conditions

Painted caps in full sun

A black cap on a home in Spring Ridge faces full sun on the roof. Paint on galvanized steel fades and chalks over time, and once it wears, the zinc underneath starts to go too. Our pros tell you whether a black cap is painted galvanized or powder-coated stainless, since the difference shows up a few years down the road. Stainless costs more at the start and keeps its looks far longer.

What a downdraft cap can and can't fix

Wind-directional caps turn their opening away from the wind, and taller caps lift the flue outlet above swirling air. On a chimney that smokes only in certain winds, either can help.

No cap fixes a flue too small for the fireplace, a chimney that falls short of the rooflines near it, or a house pulling air in through the chimney. Our specialists rule those out before recommending a downdraft cap, so you don't pay for a fix aimed at the wrong cause. If a cap won't solve it, you'll hear what would. In some cases, a cap and a small change inside the house together solve it, and that combination is priced as well.

Screens that clog and what to do about it

Along with embers, a spark screen catches soot and flakes. Fine mesh and smoky fires together plug a screen quickly, and a plugged screen starves the fire of draft.

A clogged screen is checked for damage before anything else. A sound screen gets cleaned, and a rusted one gets replaced with mesh that stays inside the code's size window. If your screen keeps plugging, the fires themselves may be the cause, since wet wood and smoldering fires make more deposit. Our specialists will mention that too, so the fix sticks and the screen stays open between sweeps. A clean screen also shows the metal underneath, so rust gets spotted early.

Quieting a rattling cap

Rattling in the wind means a cap is working itself loose. Each gust knocks it against the tile, wears the fastener holes wider and can chip the tile's edge.

First job is finding what's loose. A sound cap on a sound tile gets new stainless fasteners and is tightened evenly. A cap with bent legs or rusted clamps gets replaced. A tile with a chipped or cracked top may need repair before any cap can grip it properly. You'll hear which applies, with the price, and the rattling stops once it's fixed. A quiet cap is a secure cap, and that's what keeps it on through the next storm.

FAQs

Before you order a chimney cap

Can the cap go on the same day you inspect?

When your flue takes a stock size that's on hand, yes. Made-to-measure and multi-flue caps are fitted on a second trip once they're made. You'll know which before you agree to anything.

Can one cap cover all my flues?

In many chimneys, yes. One outside-mount cap can span the crown and cover every flue, which also shelters the concrete. Our specialists check flue heights first to be sure it suits yours.
