What Are Chimney Caps?
A chimney cap is a protective covering placed on top of your chimney. Designed to keep out rain, snow, debris, animals, and downdrafts, chimney caps also help contain sparks—preventing them from escaping onto your roof or nearby structures. It’s a simple yet essential component for chimney health and home safety.
Protection
Why Chimney Caps Matter
Prevent Water Damage
Protect your home or property from costly repairs by taking proactive steps to prevent water damage. This includes regular maintenance of plumbing, gutters, and roofing, sealing cracks or leaks, using water detection devices, and ensuring proper drainage around your foundation.
Block Birds and Small Animals
Block birds and small animals using mesh, seal openings, and maintain outdoor areas.
Reduce Downdrafts and Sparks
Reduce downdrafts and sparks by installing chimney caps, maintaining flues, and ensuring proper ventilation

Mike at Rooftop is a great guy and his guys do professional work. They offer fair prices and are very flexible when it comes to scheduling times. They are very neat and clean when it comes to such a dirty job service. The chimney cap they installed was very nice and the quote they gave me was very reasonable.
