A rusting or missing cap lets water into the flue, leaving orange stains and corroding the damper.
Rain is coming straight down an open or damaged flue because the cap is gone or cracked.
An open or broken cap is an invitation for birds, squirrels, and raccoons to nest in the flue.
Without a cap, leaves, twigs, and roof debris fall straight into the chimney.

We measure your flue and recommend the right cap for Houston's climate, stainless steel, galvanized, or copper, in a single-flue or multi-flue design, so rain, debris, and animals stay out and embers stay in.
We install and securely fasten your new cap, verify the fit and draft, and send you a detailed report with before-and-after photos so you know exactly what was done.
Houston's heavy rain and storms are hard on an open or damaged chimney. Without a solid cap, rain, leaves, and debris fall straight down the flue, and birds, squirrels, and other animals find an easy way inside. A missing or rusted cap also means no spark arrestor, so embers from a wood fire can land on your roof. Our ASCS-certified technicians measure your flue and install the right stainless steel, galvanized, or copper cap, built to NADCA standards and sized to hold up in Houston's humidity.
Whether you need a routine chimney sweep near you, a new cap to keep animals out, crown repair, or full waterproofing, every visit starts with a free camera inspection and ends with before-and-after photos so you know exactly what was done. Chimney sweep and inspection starts at $149, with a clear quote before any work begins. We also handle air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning for whole-home air quality and fire safety.

Common questions about chimney cap replacement
A chimney cap is the metal cover over the flue opening. It keeps rain, debris, leaves, and animals out of the flue, and it acts as a spark arrestor so embers do not land on your roof.
Cost depends on whether you need a single-flue cap or a full multi-flue chase cover, the material you choose, and how accessible your roof is. You always get a clear quote after a free camera inspection before any work begins.
Common signs include rust or water stains in the firebox, animals or birds in the chimney, a missing or blown-off cap, a visibly damaged cap, or leaves and debris falling into the fireplace.
A single-flue cap covers one flue opening. A multi-flue or full-width cover spans the entire top of the chase, which is common on chimneys that vent both a fireplace and a furnace or water heater.
We install stainless steel, galvanized, and copper chimney caps. Stainless steel is our top recommendation for Houston because it resists rust in our humid, rainy climate.
A properly installed stainless steel cap can last 15 to 20 years or more. Galvanized caps typically wear out sooner in Houston's humidity, which is why we recommend stainless steel for most homes.
