Choosing the cap's metal

Galvanized, stainless or copper? Galvanized steel costs the least and depends on its zinc coating, which slowly gives out in the weather. Stainless steel lasts much longer and doesn't need painting. Copper darkens to brown, then turns a soft green, and suits some homes beautifully.

You'll see how each would look on your roof and hear how it holds up, and the one you pick is fastened with hardware that won't react with it. Copper, for example, gets copper or stainless fasteners. The choice is yours, with each option given its own price. Ask about cap metals for your chimney in Williston: (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Appliance flues inland

If the chimney on your home in Williston also vents a furnace or water heater, that appliance flue needs a cap made for gas exhaust, and one that doesn't restrict it. Our specialists fit the right cap to each flue and check the lining of the appliance flue while they're up there. Each flue's cap is priced separately on the quote.

How It Works

Fitting your new cap in Williston

  1. Check the flue top

    Our pros look for animals, measure each tile and check the crown before choosing a cap.

  2. Choose the cap together

    You pick the type and metal from written options, each with its price.

  3. Fit and fasten it

    The old cap comes off, the new one is set square and clamped or bolted in place.

  4. Show you the result

    We check it from the ground with you and explain how it comes off for cleaning.

Top-sealing damper caps

A top-sealing damper cap combines a screen with a lid operated from the firebox. Its suitability depends on the fireplace and fuel. On an approved installation, the damper must be fully open before lighting and stay open until all fire and embers are out and the appliance instructions permit closure.

Because it seals at the top, it keeps rain, animals and outside air out of the entire flue, and it replaces a throat damper that has rusted or warped. Our pros fit it to the flue size, set the cable so it's easy to reach, and show you how it works. It must be fully open whenever there's a fire.

A cap is only as good as the crown under it

Every cap sits on the crown or on the flue tile that rises through it. If the crown is cracked or crumbling, water gets into the chimney through the crown no matter how good the cap is, and an outside-mount cap anchored into a weak crown won't hold.

That's why the crown gets a close look every time a cap is fitted. Hairline cracks can be sealed; open cracks and loose pieces call for a crown repair first. Doing the crown and the cap together means one setup on the roof, and each job has its own price line so you can see what you're paying for.

Flues at different heights under one cap

In chimneys with more than one flue, the tiles can stand at different heights. Under an outside-mount cap, a tall flue close to a short one can push smoke across into the short one, especially when both are in use.

Heights and spacing get measured before a multi-flue cap is recommended, and the cap is sized to clear the tallest flue with room for smoke to escape. Where flues are badly mismatched, separate caps may work better. You'll see the reasoning and both prices before choosing. Getting it right keeps smoke from one fireplace out of the room served by the other.

FAQs

Before you order a chimney cap

Which metal should I choose?

Galvanized costs least but rusts once its coating wears. Stainless lasts much longer, and copper lasts too and ages to a patina. Our pros price all three and explain how each will look and wear on your roof.

Do factory-built fireplaces need a special cap?

Yes. They take the cap listed for their chimney system, found from the rating plate. A cap from another brand can change how the unit drafts, so our pros fit the listed part.
