Chimney Cap Options for All Flue Types
Choose the Right Chimney Cap for Your Flue
We offer a range of chimney cap options designed for long-lasting home protection. Here are some of the options we commonly install or repair.
01
Stainless Steel Chimney Caps
These caps are highly durable and corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for Kansas City's variable weather conditions. They maintain a reliable seal and provide long-lasting protection.

Terra Cotta Chimney Caps
Known for their classic appearance, terracotta caps blend well with masonry chimneys. However, they are more absorbent and may require regular maintenance to keep them in good condition.
03
Ventilation Caps
These caps are designed for gas appliances and feature a built-in mesh screen that allows for proper ventilation while preventing pests and rain from entering the chimney.
04
Spark Arrestor Chimney Caps
These caps are fitted with a spark-proof mesh screen to prevent sparks from escaping and potentially causing fires. They are particularly useful for fireplaces and wooded areas.

Prevent Water Damage with Our Chimney Cap Services
Have you noticed water stains or leaks near your chimney? An unprotected flue can let rain and snow seep through cracks, leading to gradual water damage. This often goes unnoticed, causing rotting of wood framing and other costly repairs over time. A professionally installed chimney cap forms a watertight barrier over the flue, preventing such damage. We use high-quality materials like stamped metal, terra cotta, and specialized sealants to keep moisture away. This not only protects the masonry crown but also directs water away from your home’s exterior. By sealing potential leak points, chimney caps also help prevent drafts that could affect indoor air quality and energy efficiency.
