Boston Roofing and Gutters provide a wide range of services for all your chimney needs.
Chimney Caps & Dampers
A chimney cap is a piece of steel, copper, or aluminum that goes over the top of the chimney flue to keep unwanted things out such as:
Water — a chimney with a damaged cap or no cap at all is asking for trouble. Once water gets in, it can wreak all kinds of havoc and reduce the lifetime of your masonry.
Animals, birds, and insects can take up residence in a capless chimney.
Leaves, twigs, and other objects can get into a chimney without a cap. These also can obstruct your chimney and potentially cause fire or build up of dangerous gasses.

It’s highly recommended to have your chimney cleaned and inspected annually. It’s best to have this done before the burning season.
