Caps & Crowns, Atlantic CountyYour Local Pros for Chimney Caps and Crowns in Atlantic County, NJ
In Atlantic County, the chimney cap has two jobs depending on where you live. On the island it fights salt and wind, and painted metal does not last. On the mainland near the Pinelands, its mesh also stops embers from leaving the flue. Under the cap, the crown has to shed water and survive winter nights. Our crew installs stainless or copper caps with spark mesh sized to each flue, and repairs or rebuilds crowns with a proper slope so water runs off the brick.

Caps & Crowns for Atlantic County Homes
Galloway is one of 56 South Jersey municipalities inside the Pinelands National Reserve. For a house with a wood fireplace or stove near the trees, a cap with intact mesh helps stop embers from leaving the flue and keeps out birds and squirrels.
Ventnor City, on Absecon Island, took its name in 1889 from an English seaside resort on the Isle of Wight and was incorporated in 1903. Salt air there speeds up rust on caps and chase covers, so stainless steel or copper is the sensible choice.
We install caps and rebuild crowns in Galloway, Ventnor City, Hammonton, Absecon and Egg Harbor Township.
When to Call Us
