Your Local Chimney Cap and Crown Experts in Monmouth County, NJ

Steel caps and chase covers rust out quickly in Monmouth County's salt air, and once a cap fails the flue takes rain, birds and debris. Crowns face the same wind, salt and freezing nights, and a crack there sends water straight into the brick. Our crew installs stainless steel or copper caps fastened to hold through coastal storms, replaces crumbling crowns with properly formed ones that overhang the brick, and seals crowns that are still sound.

Caps & Crowns for Monmouth County Homes

Long Branch, known as the nation's first seaside resort, has homes within easy reach of ocean spray. Caps and fasteners on those chimneys corrode faster than inland, so we choose stainless steel or copper and check them on every visit.

Hazlet lies near Raritan Bay, and bayshore homes there take wind off the water much of the year. A well-fastened cap and a crown with a drip edge keep that weather from working into the flue and the brick.

We install caps and crowns in Long Branch, Hazlet, Keansburg, Red Bank and Tinton Falls.

When to Call Us

  • No cap on top of the flue
  • Birds or animals in the chimney
  • Cracks across the crown
  • Rust stains on the firebox or damper
  • Water dripping into the fireplace

How the Job Goes

  1. Measure

    We measure the flue and crown so the cap fits and the crown sheds water.

  2. Repair or replace

    Small crown cracks get sealed; a failed crown gets replaced.

  3. Install the cap

    A cap sized to your flue, fastened to stay on in strong wind.

  4. Check the rest

    We look at the flashing and the top courses of brick while we are up there.

Caps & Crowns Questions in Monmouth County

Is a copper chimney cap worth it at the Jersey Shore?
Copper resists salt air very well and weathers to a brown or green patina that suits older homes. Stainless steel lasts well too and costs less. Either outlasts plain steel by a wide margin near the water.
Our cap blew off in a storm. Is it safe to use the fireplace?
Hold off until it is replaced. Without a cap, rain can soak the flue and animals can get in, and a storm may have damaged the crown too. We replace the cap and check the top of the chimney at the same visit.
Do I really need a chimney cap?
Yes. A cap is the simplest way to keep rain and animals out of the flue.
