Hear from Our Customers
Your chimney finally works the way it should. No more water stains on your ceiling during heavy rains. No more animals making noise in your walls at 3 AM.
A quality chimney cap does more than sit on top of your chimney. It creates a complete barrier system that blocks water, animals, and debris while maintaining proper ventilation for safe fireplace operation.
You get peace of mind knowing your home is protected by a solution that’s built to last decades, not just a few seasons. Richmond’s coastal weather won’t be a problem anymore.
Certified Chimney Inspections has been serving Richmond homeowners since 2000. Our team of CSI-certified technicians has been handling chimney work together for over twenty years.
That means you’re not getting someone who learned chimney caps from YouTube videos. You’re getting professionals who understand how Richmond’s coastal climate affects chimney systems and what actually works long-term.
We maintain higher quality control standards than typical contractors because we know our reputation depends on solutions that last.
First, we inspect your existing chimney structure to determine the right cap size and style for your specific setup. Every chimney is different, so cookie-cutter solutions don’t work.
Next, we measure for custom fitting if needed. Standard caps work for most chimneys, but some require custom fabrication for proper protection. We’ll tell you upfront which option makes sense for your situation.
Installation involves securing the cap with appropriate fasteners and ensuring proper clearance for ventilation. We test the fit and check that your fireplace draft isn’t affected. You get a walkthrough of what was done and what to expect going forward.

Stainless steel chimney caps handle salt air and moisture better than cheaper alternatives. They don’t rust out after a few years like galvanized options, and they maintain their appearance longer.
Custom-made caps solve problems that standard sizes can’t address. If your chimney has an unusual shape or multiple flues, a custom solution ensures complete protection without compromising function.
Richmond’s weather patterns create specific challenges for chimney systems. Our technicians factor in prevailing wind directions, seasonal moisture levels, and local building characteristics when recommending cap styles and installation methods.
