The work behind chimney cap installation in South Bay
We size the cap to your exact flue rather than fitting a universal part, and inside the salt-air line we use 316 stainless or copper instead of galvanized, which rusts through in a few years here. Animal mesh and a spark arrestor are built in. Inland around U.S. 27 / State Road 80 crossroads area, it is daily damp plus hurricane-season wind that age a South Bay chimney, so the fix answers both. Around South Bay the gap between a quick fix and a larger job is usually how long it has been left, which is why we look before we price.
