"The damper on my chimney wouldnt stay closed. Damien showed up today in a matter of minutes, showed me what I was doing wrong. And aside from being so courteous, Covid safe (wearing mask, keeping safe distance, and taking off shoes), he was so patient with me. I didnt realize that I had to slam the damper door hard. I was being too gentle. The call was a free inspection and estimate. And they had to drive out to my place and spend time to do this. BUT they refused to charge me for the visit. They fixed my damper and now I have a warm home again. This is a small company but they know how to build loyalty from their customers. Ill never consider using anyone but them in the future."

If you have a chimney, you need a chimney cap. A chimney cap is the small barrier of metal and wire on top of your chimney that keeps weather and pests out. If your house doesn't have a chimney cap or you notice large holes in the sides, find a local chimney cap company who can replace it.
When you use your fireplace in winter, birds or squirrels near your rooftop will be attracted to the heat. Without a chimney cap to block off the exterior entrance, they can find their way inside. Good chimney caps also have a spark guard so embers that get caught in the rising gases can't damage your roof. Look for local chimney cap installers who can put a high-quality cap in place so that you don't have to worry the next time you light a fire.
Even if you don't use your fireplace, a chimney cap can keep large pests and the rain out of your house. Type in your zip code and HomeAdvisor will find chimney cap installers near you.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to have a chimney cap installed?
It costs between $150 and $700 to install a chimney cap. Additional cost factors include:
- Type of chimney flue.
- Any pre-existing damage.
- Which type of cap you need.
What does a chimney cap do?
Chimney caps vary in function. Some optimize airflow while keeping out pests, wind and debris. Others are a simple grate. If you live in a drafty or older house, a chimney cap with a damper mechanism might be necessary.
A professional can advise you on the type of chimney cap you need.
Do all chimneys need a cap?
Chimney caps are necessary because they block debris, pests and wind from getting into your chimney. Failing to install a chimney cap can leave your chimney vulnerable to damage from animals and the elements. This can lead to extremely costly repairs down the road.
Who do I hire to install a chimney cap?
A chimney professional can install a chimney cap for you. Research chimney professionals near you and get at least three bids. Make sure to establish price and timeline up front before he or she gets to work.
