What affects the cost of chimney cap replacement in South Palm Beach
On a South Palm Beach job, the price comes down to a few things.

Why chimney cap replacement matters in South Palm Beach
For a South Palm Beach home, this is the part that matters most. A rusted or blown-off cap leaves the flue open to rain and wildlife, and on the coast a galvanized cap that has corroded through is past resealing and due for stainless or copper.
South Palm Beach is a narrow barrier-island strip of mostly 1970s-era condominiums, so the relevant venting concern is salt-corroded rooftop appliance flues and mechanical vent caps on aging buildings rather than backyard brick fireplaces. Near State Road A1A, which runs the roughly half-mile length of the town on the Palm Beach barrier island, South Palm Beach housing sets the terms for a chimney cap replacement: Mostly mid-rise oceanfront and Intracoastal condominiums dating largely to a 1970s building surge, generally without traditional residential masonry chimneys; flues are typically shared mechanical or appliance vents.
