Signs You Need Crown or Mortar Repair
Efflorescence
Moisture issues can result in white salt crystals forming on the surface of your chimney. This is a clear indication that water is penetrating your chimney structure.
Rust
Check your damper or firebox for rust or corrosion. Rust indicates that moisture is entering your chimney system and causing damage to metal components.
Visible Cracks
Visible cracks in your chimney or chimney crown need to be filled and fixed, otherwise they'll let water in and lead to more extensive damage over time.
Spalling Bricks or Fallen Tiles
Bricks or chimney tiles coming loose or falling from your chimney is a major issue that requires immediate professional attention.
Water Damage
Look for common signs of water damage around your home, as well as water or moisture accumulating in the bottom of your fireplace.
Deteriorating Mortar
Crumbling or missing mortar between bricks weakens the chimney structure and allows water infiltration. Repointing is essential to maintain structural integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long should a chimney crown or chase top last?
In most cases, a chimney crown should last for at least 20 years, and with proper maintenance, potentially up to 50-75 years. Chimney chase tops generally don't last as long since they're made of metal, typically lasting 5-7 years before requiring repairs or replacement.
What happens if the chimney crown is damaged?
Chimney crowns protect your home from the outside elements, keeping moisture and pests from entering through the chimney. When the chimney crown is cracked or otherwise damaged, it can lead to problems with your home's heating system and moisture damage due to rainwater and snow getting inside.
What is the difference between a chimney crown and a chase top?
Although chimney crowns and chase tops have similar functions in keeping precipitation, debris, and pests out of your chimney, they vary in their construction. Chimney crowns are typically made of concrete, stone, or metal, while chase tops are often made of metal. We service both types!
