"Excellent. They were on time and explained everything thoroughly. They took pictures of the chimney cap while up on the roof and explained what they saw and gave me options, while not being pushy. Would definitely use them again."

"The service was fine. The only thing is that they were really late coming. So, it was like dark when they got out of here. They left the area good when they were finished. It took them an hour-and-a-half to complete the job. They sent me a picture of the chimney. The price was great. They did show up."

"Robert came to my house and inspected the roof and inside the attic. He explained what was going wrong with my roof and outlined my options for getting a new roof installed. He also showed me his company's credentials and their excellent ratings with various rating agencies. He gave me a quote and I was contacted to confirm the installation date. Robert and his crew showed up on time, worked really hard all day and had the new roof installed as well as the two new attic fans we had discussed installing. They cleaned up completely when they were done. Throughout the process Robert and his employees were all very professional, quick to respond to any questions and helpful in all ways. I recommend K & R Roofmasters highly and would use them again."

"Two gentlemen arrived, very courteous and professional. I escorted one gentleman to the furnace area to investigate what would be cleaned. I was amazed to see what I saw! Soot (looking more like crumbled dirt and sand) nearly filled the flue; solid evidence there was a serious and potentially unsafe problem in that side of the chimney. The other gentleman shared that he'd go to the top of the chimney to advise me of the condition. He also took pictures on their phones so I could see the condition above. There was no cap on the furnace chimney (I had one on the fireplace chimney). He also looked into the fireplace chimney which I greatly appreciated. One gentleman advised me of the cost of the repairs, I agreed to the cost, and they began working. These gentlemen were outstanding; demonstrating great concern for the safety of my home. I would not hesitate to use them again.

"The service rep was very safety conscious and went over safety details on how to properly build a fire, how to dispose of the embers, how to avoid extra smoke coming into the house. he did a thorough examination of the chimney flues, inside and outside and checked some brick facing in the attic that a previous inspector had explained needed to be re-mortared. He had a thorough knowledge of the construction of our chimney and pronounced in in very good condition. He also confirmed the proper discharge location for fallen embers into the basement, which had been a worry for us. He pronounced that in good shape as well. He also went over the idea we wanted to explore of making the fireplace into a two sided one and he explained that this was indeed possible. but he recommended that we use the third flu, which he discovered and which no one had told us about, and explained we could convert that flu to a gas fired fireplace flu for the room on the other side.
He cleaned up well after himself and was professional throughout. I will use him again every year.

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.
