The chimney crown, a concrete or mortar slab on top of your chimney, may not look like much, but it’s a critical part of your home’s defense against weather damage.

Here’s why a damaged chimney crown needs to be repaired ASAP:

1. It’s Your Chimney’s First Line of Defense

The crown shields your chimney flue and masonry from rain, snow, and debris. A crack allows moisture to seep in, leading to leaks, mold, and crumbling brick.

2. Water Damage Spreads Fast

Once water gets in through a cracked crown, it travels. It can damage the chimney liner, rust fireplace parts, or even cause ceiling and wall leaks inside your home.

3. Compromised Crowns Lead to Structural Issues

What starts as a hairline crack can widen with freeze-thaw cycles. Over time, this can destabilize your chimney’s entire structure.
