If your chimney doesn't have a cap, it is a get-in point for rain, debris, and squirrels to fall into. We provide chimney cap installation in Farmers Branch, TX, to lock down your flue and prevent the "Big Three" of chimney disasters: water rot, animal nests, and roof fires.
Farmers Branch Chimney Cap Specialists
Think of a chimney cap as the umbrella for your fireplace. Without it, the Texas spring storms dump gallons of water directly down your flue. This moisture mixes with soot to create an acid that damages the mortar joints and rusts the damper.
But it’s not just about the rain. In Farmers Branch, we have a healthy population of raccoons and chimney swifts that see an open flue as a five-star hotel, which is why proper chimney crown repair Farmers Branch is critical. Animal nesting prevention is necessary so a bird’s nest doesn’t turn your living room into a smokehouse the next time you light a fire.
We are the skilled technicians who measure the flue and install high-quality caps that stay tucked in, even when those North Texas straight-line winds try to rip them off.

Hear scratching in the walls or see a wet spot in the firebox? Installing a chimney cap is the single most cost-effective upgrade you can make to your chimney and fireplace, and many homeowners first schedule a full chimney inspection in Farmers Branch to identify entry points.
Meyers Chimney Sweep handles the too tall and too steep chimneys confidently. We install:
- Stainless Steel Caps: The gold standard. They won't rust, won't stain your masonry, and usually come with a lifetime warranty.

We have been the expert chimney crew in Farmers Branch since 1998, serving nearby communities that rely on chimney repair Lancaster. We know that a cap installed in the Valwood or Mercer Crossing area needs to be “Texas Tough.”
Cheap big-box store caps use thin mesh that a determined raccoon can peel back like a tin can. We use heavy-duty stainless steel or galvanized steel with reinforced mounting points. When we install a cap, it becomes a permanent part of your chimney system.

- Single-Flue Caps: Perfect for standard masonry chimneys.
- Multi-Flue / Custom Caps: Protect the entire chimney crown and multiple vents under one sleek "house-style" lid.
- Top-Sealing Damper Caps: The ultimate energy-saver. It’s a cap and a rubber-sealed damper in one, stopping 100% of heat loss when the fireplace is cold.

- Animal Noises: Chirping, scratching, or fluttering coming from the throat of the chimney.
- Wet Soot Smell: A campfire odor that gets stronger every time it rains.
- Dripping Noises: Hearing water hit the metal damper during a storm.

Frequently Asked Questions

If we find a resident squirrel during the cap installation, we work to humanely remove them before sealing the flue.
Standard chimney cap installation Farmers Branch homeowners need usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour once we are on the roof.
A chimney cap covers the hole where the smoke comes out (the flue). A chase cover is the large metal "lid" that covers the entire top of a prefabricated (siding) chimney. We do both!
