Chimney Cap Installation
Dentsville SC

A home inspector who writes "missing chimney cap" or "no rain cap" saw an open flue from the roof or the ground. A note like "cap damaged" or "spark arrestor screen deteriorated" means a cap is there but the screen or hood has failed. Inspectors often recommend a qualified chimney professional look further, and that is where we come in.

We go up, measure, and tell you what is actually there: the flue count, what each flue serves, the condition of any existing cap, and the condition of the crown. Then you get a quote for the cap or caps, which is usually what a buyer, seller or agent wants to see.

Tell us the closing or inspection deadline when you first call. We do not promise a date before we know the flue size and whether a standard cap fits. A stock cap on a common tile is quicker than a made-to-measure cap for an odd tile or a top-mount cap that needs crown work first. We give you the realistic timing with the quote.

If you are the buyer, the seller usually has to approve access. If you are the seller, tell us who else needs a copy of the quote. Ask whether completion photos can be arranged if the buyer wants proof of the work.

For a Dentsville home sale, the quote depends on what the inspector flagged: a missing cap on one clay tile, several flues, a gas vent that needs a listed cap, or a crown problem that needs masonry repair. A made-to-measure cap or crown work takes longer than a stock cap, which matters if there is a closing date. Material and roof access also change the price. We quote after measuring.
