Water damage stops at your roofline instead of reaching your ceilings, walls, and foundation. Animals find somewhere else to nest instead of blocking your flue and creating dangerous ventilation problems.
Your chimney system functions reliably season after season, protecting your family and preserving your property value. No more emergency repairs during storms. No more wondering if that stain on your ceiling means expensive structural damage.
When your chimney cap is installed correctly with quality materials, your home’s exterior protection works the way it should—silently, efficiently, and permanently.
We’ve protected Suffolk County homes for over thirty years. We understand exactly what Remsenburg’s coastal climate does to exterior systems—the salt air corrosion, freeze-thaw cycles, and severe weather that test every component.
Our family business built its reputation on exterior work that matches the quality of homes in your neighborhood. We’re licensed, insured, and committed to craftsmanship that preserves property values in communities where homes average over a million dollars.
As local contractors who understand local challenges, we deliver better results. We know Suffolk County building codes, weather patterns, and the materials that perform best in our environment.
Every project starts with thorough inspection of your existing chimney system. We examine the cap, crown, flashing, and surrounding masonry to identify the root cause of any problems—not just the visible symptoms.
Precise measurement ensures perfect fit whether you need single-flue, multi-flue, or custom fabrication. We recommend materials based on your home’s architecture, your budget, and Suffolk County’s demanding weather conditions.
Professional installation includes proper sealing, weatherproofing, and testing. We protect your roof and property during work, complete installation efficiently, and verify everything functions correctly before we consider the job finished. You receive detailed documentation of all work performed.

Every installation includes premium materials designed for Long Island’s coastal environment. Stainless steel construction resists salt air corrosion. Copper options provide classic aesthetics with decades of durability. All caps include spark arrestor mesh and proper mounting hardware.
Remsenburg’s diverse architecture often requires custom solutions. We fabricate caps for unusual chimney configurations, multi-flue systems, and specific aesthetic requirements. Whether you need standard replacement or custom design, we deliver solutions that function perfectly and complement your home’s style.
Our comprehensive warranties protect your investment. Materials and workmanship guarantees provide peace of mind, and we stand behind every installation with responsive service if issues arise. Quality materials and professional installation eliminate most problems before they start.
Chimney cap installation costs vary based on chimney configuration, materials selected, and installation complexity. Standard single-flue stainless steel caps typically range from $400-600 installed. Multi-flue systems and custom copper fabrication cost more.
Most Remsenburg homeowners invest $500-1200 for complete chimney cap replacement. This investment prevents thousands in water damage repairs, structural issues, and interior restoration costs that result from unprotected chimneys.
We provide detailed estimates that include all materials, labor, and warranties. No hidden fees or surprise charges—you know exactly what you’re paying before work begins.
Stainless steel chimney caps perform best in Suffolk County’s coastal environment. They resist salt air corrosion, handle freeze-thaw cycles without cracking, and maintain structural integrity for decades.
Copper caps offer superior aesthetics and develop attractive patina over time, but require higher initial investment. Both materials significantly outperform galvanized steel, which corrodes quickly near the coast.
The spark arrestor mesh should always be stainless steel regardless of cap material. This prevents animals and debris infiltration while allowing proper ventilation. Quality materials cost more upfront but eliminate replacement headaches.
Standard chimney cap installation typically requires 3-5 hours depending on roof accessibility, chimney height, and weather conditions. We don’t rush quality work, but we complete installations efficiently to minimize disruption.
Custom fabrication adds lead time for measurement, manufacturing, and delivery—usually 7-10 days total. We coordinate scheduling around your availability and favorable weather conditions.
Emergency installations for storm-damaged caps receive priority scheduling. Exposed chimneys need immediate protection to prevent water damage, so we respond quickly when weather threatens your home.
Standard chimney cap replacement typically doesn’t require permits in Suffolk County since it’s considered maintenance rather than structural modification. However, extensive crown work or masonry repairs may trigger permit requirements.
We handle all permit applications when required and include fees in your project estimate. Our installations meet all local building codes and fire safety requirements, ensuring compliance during home inspections.
Building code compliance protects you during insurance claims and home sales. Professional installation eliminates code violations that could complicate these important transactions.
Multi-flue chimney cap installation is our specialty. Many Remsenburg homes have complex systems serving multiple appliances—fireplaces, furnaces, water heaters, and gas appliances all requiring separate flue protection.
Each flue needs individual coverage while maintaining proper ventilation and draft characteristics. We design custom caps that protect the entire chimney crown while providing appropriate coverage for each flue opening.
Standard caps rarely fit multi-flue configurations properly. Custom fabrication ensures optimal performance, code compliance, and aesthetic integration with your home’s architecture.
All chimney cap installations include comprehensive material and workmanship warranties. Stainless steel caps carry manufacturer warranties plus our installation guarantee. We stand behind every installation with responsive service if issues develop.
Storm damage coverage depends on your homeowner’s insurance policy. Properly installed caps rarely fail, but severe weather can damage any exterior component. We provide documentation for insurance claims and work with adjusters regularly.
Our warranty covers manufacturing defects, installation issues, and premature failure. We don’t cover damage from falling trees, ice dams, or other acts of nature—that’s what homeowner’s insurance handles.
