"Came out and checked out the chimney - chase cover had rusted and was letting water leak in ( had some staining on my ceiling ). Gave me a fair quote, had a custom stainless steel cover fabricated and installed quickly. They did a great job and would hire again."

"The lower grades Jeff (owner) has received surprise me.  Chimney Dr was the fourth of four bids we were going to get on fixing our leak.  Three of four companies all "found" different leaks, and the last company just estimated EVERYTHING.  High estimate was $3,000.00 including a separate interior drywall repair estimate we were not asking for .... but that guy didn't have a ladder tall enough to get to the roof, anyway.  Jeff was the only person to actually water-leak test to confirm the source(s) of the leak(s).   He showed up on time for his first visit, phoned that he was running a bit late for his second visit  (he was actually working on one of my neighbors chimney, who is also completely satisfied with Jeff's work) and then phoned ahead three days later once he had the parts needed to complete the repair.  Our chimney was fixed that same morning.  Since then, we have had two  very hard rain storms the last two days, and not a drop of rain inside.  I will say that Jeff is a very busy man working long hours, and appears to be a one-man operation.  We could have spent over $1,000.00 on repairs that would not have stopped our leak at all, or paid far more for the same plus 'other needed work'.  The fact is, we only had one leak; not two or three.  And if we hadn't called The Chimney Doctor, we would have just burned cash.  Thanks again for all your help and GREAT service, Jeff!"

"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."

"We have a manufactured fireplace from the 70s. It began leaking heavily during the heavy rains earlier this year. After calling around to several companies, we discovered that the manufacturer of our chimney had been out of business for many years. None of the distributors contacted carried the parts to replace the chimney cap. Lee came out and custom fit a new cap. It took him less than a half hour. It hasn't leaked since. Very satisfied."

FAQs for chimney cap service projects in Markleville, IN

Chimney caps may be installed by a few different professionals, including a chimney sweep or a mason that specializes in fireplaces and chimneys. A gas fireplace technician is the best person to install a chimney cap on a gas log fireplace vent to be sure the cap is appropriate for the application.

A chimney cap costs about $300 on average. The prices range from about $75 to $1,000, depending on the material, size, any repairs needed, and if your chimney cap requires custom fabrication. Chimney caps are usually made from galvanized steel, copper, or stainless steel. Additional costs may include hiring a chimney sweep to clean the chimney before a cap is installed. 

Yes, it’s worth capping a chimney. Here are several reasons to install a chimney cap:

  • Keep out rain, snow, wildlife, and other debris

  • Help prevent chimney fires

  • Reduce your chimney’s exposure to moisture

  • Maintain your chimney flue liner

  • Help reduce energy bills by helping regulate your home’s temperature

Typically, a chimney cap will last from three to 25 years. This wide range is due to variables like climate, the material the cap is made from, and how often you use your fireplace. Regular inspections and maintenance can help extend the life of your chimney cap.

The best style of chimney cap for a brick chimney is one that fits tightly around the brick top of the chimney. The cap should have a screen to fully enclose it to keep animals out. The best materials include stainless steel, copper, or aluminum that fit tightly or are custom fabricated for a perfect fit on your chimney.
