Our Services

Choosing, fitting and fastening the cap

Rusted, loose or missing, our pros replace chimney caps across Wagner with a written price first.

Mesh that keeps squirrels and raccoons out

Raccoons pull at loose mesh and squirrels chew at gaps along the lid, so the screen needs to be sound and fastened on every side. A cap with a bent corner or a missing panel invites the same animals back.

We fit caps with a screen that meets the code for the flue, fasten it to the frame and check the gaps where the cap meets the tile or crown. If animals have already damaged the old cap, we show you where they got in and what the new cap changes.

Repair a cap only when the parts are sound

Some caps can be put right with new bolts, a straightened lid bracket or a replacement screen. That works when the frame is square, the metal is solid and the cap still fits the tile.

When the metal is perforated, the mesh has rusted through or the frame is twisted, a repair only delays the next failure. We tell you which case you have, and if a repair is realistic we price it alongside a replacement so you can choose between them.

After a cap comes down

When a cap falls in a storm, it can land in the yard, in a gutter or on the roof itself, and its edges are often sharp. Keep children and pets away from it and do not climb up to refit it. A ladder on a wet roof after a storm is a real risk.

Tell us where the cap landed and whether water has come into the fireplace since. We check the flue for debris that fell in, look at what the old cap was fastened to and fit a replacement that suits the chimney.

Options priced in writing

Most chimneys have more than one reasonable cap choice. A single-flue cap in stainless steel, a copper version or one cap over several flues can all work, and they differ in look and price. Where a crown-mounted cap and single-flue caps both fit, we show you how each one handles the flues and the crown.

Every choice goes on the estimate with its own price and a plain note on what it changes. You pick, there are no hidden fees, and your pick is 10% off if you schedule it inside the 72-hour window after the inspection.
