Request an inspection ↗Understanding the service
The termination must keep weather and animals out without restricting the flue. Cap height, screen area, attachment and corrosion resistance are matched to the flue and exposure. A top-sealing damper can also close an open fireplace flue at the top, reducing air loss when the fireplace is not in use.
What to look for
Reasons to replace or upgrade the termination
- Rain, leaves or animal nesting reaches the flue
- The cap is missing, loose, crushed or heavily rusted
- Screening is clogged and restricting exhaust
- The fireplace damper no longer closes or seals
- Multiple flues need one coordinated protective cover
A complete written scope
- Flue, crown and termination measurements
- Draft-area and clearance review
- Material, screen and mounting selection
- Custom fabrication when standard sizes do not fit
- Damper cable setup and operating demonstration when included
Our service process
- Inspect the existing termination and identify the flues served
- Select a standard or custom cap or damper system

Inspection & documentation
We inspect accessible conditions, take measurements and document the parts of the system that shape your repair or installation options.
System options & written scope
You receive practical material and system choices, a defined scope of work and clear exclusions where hidden conditions may exist.
Contract, deposit & scheduling
Once you select your system:
- We sign a clear, written contract

Installation & progress documentation
We protect the work area, install the approved scope and document important conditions and completed details as the project moves forward.
Cleanup & final inspection
We clean the property thoroughly. Most exterior construction sites are approximately 90-99% clean the same day. For qualifying multi-day masonry and exterior projects, our next-day closeout can include:
- A final inspection
- An additional magnetic sweep
- Final drone photos when conditions and location allow
- A complete quality-control review
Exact payment milestones, closeout steps and return visits are stated in the written contract for the selected project.
Service questions
Details worth understanding.
Final specifications depend on the inspected conditions, appliance listing, selected manufacturer and applicable local requirements.
Will a chimney cap stop every draft problem?+
No. A cap can help with certain wind and weather conditions, but draft also depends on flue sizing, chimney height, house pressure, fuel, combustion air and appliance operation.
What is the advantage of a top-sealing damper?+
It seals at the top with a gasket, helping reduce rain entry and air leakage through an unused open fireplace flue. It must be opened fully before a fire is started.
