A chimney cap is an inexpensive but critical component that sits atop the flue liner and prevents four of the most common chimney problems: rain entry, animal intrusion, downdraft, and flying ember escape. Without a cap, water falls directly into the flue liner — accelerating tile deterioration and rusting the damper — and birds, squirrels, and raccoons frequently nest inside unprotected chimneys. Carter Family Chimney Service installs single-flue and multi-flue chimney caps in stainless steel, galvanized steel, and copper for homeowners throughout South Richmond Hill, NY.
We carry standard round and rectangular caps in common liner sizes and can source custom-fabricated caps for oversized or unusually shaped flue openings. All caps are secured with stainless steel set screws and include mesh spark arrestor screens rated to NFPA 211 standards, which are required in many jurisdictions to prevent burning embers from landing on neighboring roofs. Our technicians also install full-width outside mount caps that cover the entire chimney crown for chimneys with multiple flues or where the crown condition requires additional protection.
Cap installation typically takes under an hour and can be combined with your annual sweep and inspection for maximum efficiency. Carter Family Chimney Service serves South Richmond Hill, Ozone Park, Richmond Hill, Jamaica, Woodhaven, and surrounding neighborhoods seven days a week. Call (929) 356-7855 to get a cap on your chimney before the next storm season begins.
