Caps & Crowns, Burlington CountyYour Local Chimney Cap and Crown Crew in Burlington County, NJ
A chimney cap is a small part that prevents a lot of damage, and in Burlington County it earns its keep. Without one, rain drops straight down the flue, birds move in during spring and leaves fill idle fireplace flues in fall. The crown below the cap matters just as much, because a cracked crown lets water into the brick before every frost. We fit screened caps sized to each flue and repair or rebuild crowns so they slope water away from the chimney.

Caps & Crowns for Burlington County Homes
In Mount Holly, the county seat, average January lows are about 22 degrees, and the record low is 25 below zero, set in February 1934. A crown that holds water through nights like that will crack, and once it cracks the brick beneath it starts to go.
Clear, dry nights in the Pine Barrens can run 10 to 15 degrees colder than nearby areas, with a shorter frost-free season. In Pinelands towns, we suggest checking the crown each spring for frost damage and keeping a sound cap on every flue.
We install caps and rebuild crowns in Pemberton Township, Medford, Evesham, Willingboro and Cinnaminson.
When to Call Us
- No cap on top of the flue

- Cracks across the crown
- Rust stains on the firebox or damper
