Chimney Crown Repair in Portland & Southwest Washington
The crown is your chimney's roof. When it cracks, every rain sends water straight into the masonry below.
Straightforward service, fully documented
Crown services
- Crown inspection with photos
- Crack sealing with flexible crown coat
- Full crown rebuild with proper overhang and drip edge
- Cap installation on the finished crown
- Masonry repair below failed crowns
- Waterproofing to protect the finished work
A proper crown is sloped, overhangs the brick, and has a drip edge — most original builder crowns have none of these.
Three simple steps
Hairline cracks can be sealed; crumbling crowns need a rebuild. Photos tell you which.
Flexible sealant for minor cracks; formed, reinforced concrete for rebuilds.
A cap and optional waterproofing keep the new crown sound for decades.

YELP REVIEW · GAS FIREPLACEFrequently asked questions
Crown seal or crown rebuild — which do I need?
Cracks with sound concrete underneath can be sealed. Crumbling, delaminating crowns need a rebuild. We show you photos and quote both honestly.
How long does a crown rebuild take?
Typically a day, weather permitting — concrete needs dry conditions to cure.
Will the new crown match?
A rebuilt crown looks cleaner than the original — properly sloped with an overhang most builder crowns never had.
Does insurance cover crown damage?
Sometimes, when tied to a specific event. Our photo documentation supports claims either way.
