"I called Smalling Masonry on Monday, looking to get my chimney swept and inspected for the year. The office staff was polite and friendly, and was able to set me up for that Thursday. They came out to the house on time and did a fantastic job. They laid down blankets because it was raining, as to not track in any dirt, and went right to work. Will certainly use them again in the future."

"Tim and his crew were excellent! He was able to complete the chimney repairs quickly, despite a a steep roof and a narrow driveway without much room to set up the scaffolding. The new mortar looks lovely, and has kept the rain out. Tim stayed in constant contact in the days leading up to the project, so I always knew what our timeline would be. He and his crew were great!"

"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."

"This was a very frustrating experience. Mr Sanders attempted to "make everything right" but we wished it all had been done right the first time. It took way too long to complete the work, and although the finished work in most instances is satisfactory, the grief we went through to get to that point was not worth it. Mr Sanders, in our opinion, was overwhelmed by the amount of jobs that he accepted after the hail storm, and did not have the contractors, companies, or individuals to complete the work in a timely and professional manner. We had requested, also, to have "extra" projects done at the same time as the hail repairs, and unfortunately, these projects were not completed as planned either. Mr Sanders is an honest person, who does try his best to get the work completed, however, he does need to do some serious "housecleaning" where is workers are concerned, as they are not representing him well."

FAQs for chimney cap service projects in Mount Summit, 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.
