Professional chimney cap installation that actually protects your home from costly water damage and unwanted visitors.
Hear from Our Customers
You get a chimney system that works the way it should. No more water dripping down into your fireplace during storms. No more squirrels or birds making themselves at home in your flue.
A quality chimney cap does more than sit on top of your chimney. It directs water away from the opening, prevents downdrafts that push smoke back into your house, and keeps debris from clogging your system. When it’s installed correctly with the right materials, you stop worrying about what the next storm might bring.
Your home stays dry. Your chimney lasts longer. You avoid those surprise repair bills that come from water damage you didn’t see coming.
We’ve been working on chimneys in Barrington since 2000. Same core team, same commitment to doing the job right the first time. Our technicians are CSI certified, which means they’ve met the industry’s highest standards for chimney safety and installation practices.
We’re not the cheapest option in town, and that’s intentional. You’re paying for materials that last, installation that’s done correctly, and the kind of quality control that prevents callbacks. When we install a chimney cap, it stays put and does its job for years.
Most of our customers are homeowners who’ve learned that cutting corners on chimney work usually costs more in the long run.
First, we inspect your chimney to determine the right type and size of cap for your specific setup. Not all chimneys are the same, and a cap that works perfectly on one might cause problems on another.
We measure everything precisely and often recommend custom-made caps for the best fit and performance. Standard caps from the hardware store rarely provide the protection your chimney actually needs.
Installation involves securing the cap properly to your chimney crown or flue, making sure it’s level and positioned to direct water away from the opening. We test the fit and check that it doesn’t interfere with your chimney’s draft. The whole process typically takes a few hours, and you’ll know immediately that it’s been done right.

We primarily install stainless steel chimney caps because they handle New England weather better than anything else. Galvanized caps rust out in a few years. Aluminum caps can warp or crack. Stainless steel keeps doing its job decade after decade.
For chimneys with multiple flues, we often recommend custom-made caps that cover the entire chimney crown. These provide better protection and usually look cleaner than multiple individual caps. We’ll walk you through the options and explain what makes sense for your specific situation.
Every installation includes proper flashing and sealing to prevent water infiltration around the cap itself. It’s not enough to just attach the cap – the connection points need to be weatherproofed correctly or you’ll still have water problems.
