Chimney Cap & Crown Services in Hawthorne

The chimney cap and crown are the top of the chimney's weather protection system. On Hawthorne's postwar cape cods and ranches, original concrete crowns from the 1950s and 1960s are now 60-70 years old — an age at which hairline cracking is common even when it's not visible from the ground. A missing or damaged cap adds to the problem by allowing direct precipitation and occasional animals into the flue.
Meridian Contracting installs and repairs chimney caps and crowns throughout Hawthorne and the Town of Mount Pleasant, protecting the masonry investment underneath.
