From flue measurement to fastened cap in Croissant Park
Bolt-on caps and the tile they grip
A familiar single-flue design drops over the tile and tightens against it with a bolt in each corner. Its maker's instructions say the bolts should hold the tile firmly without driving into it. Some of these caps carry a metal ridge between each bolt and the tile for that reason.
A bolt-on cap is only as secure as the tile it grips. If the top edge of the tile is chipped, cracked or crumbling, the bolts have little to hold, and tightening them harder can break the tile further. We check the tile edge first and list any tile repair as a separate item.
Why a cap may take two visits
Some caps are common sizes that can be fitted on the day they are measured. Others, especially multi-flue and made-to-measure caps, have to be ordered after the measurements are taken. That can mean one visit to measure and another to fit.
We tell you which kind of cap your chimney needs before you approve anything. Where a second visit is involved, we explain what happens in between, including whether the flue needs temporary protection. We do not promise a fitting date we cannot keep. The estimate records the measurements, so the order matches your chimney exactly.
Papers that help with a cap job
Old invoices, inspection notes and chimney paperwork can explain what is on the roof. They may show that a liner was added, a cap was replaced or a crown was patched. For a factory-built chimney, the installation manual and the label tell us which cap is listed.
Gather what you have, but do not worry if there is nothing. A document describing a past repair does not prove the repair is still sound, so we check it in place anyway. The papers simply help us understand the chimney faster and avoid ordering the wrong cap for it.
What the inspection can and cannot see
From the roof, we can see the cap, the screen, the tile tops, the crown and the upper flue. Some things stay hidden: cracks inside the flue further down, the condition of tile under old sealant or damage beneath a stucco finish.
We tell you what we saw directly and what we could only infer. If a hidden condition affects the cap choice, we explain how we would find out and whether that step is included. The written estimate records the limits of the inspection for your home in Croissant Park, so there are no surprises about what was checked.

What to ask about a chimney cap in Croissant Park
How does the inspection discount apply to cap replacement?
Your own free inspection starts the window. For the next 72 hours, the cap and any other item on that estimate can be approved at 10% off, and later approvals keep the written price.
Can a chimney cap keep birds and animals out of the flue?
A cap with an intact screen blocks the opening animals use. It must not be fitted over an animal that is already inside. If you hear movement in the flue, tell us, so removal is handled before the top is closed.
Can you replace just the screen on my cap?
Where the maker offers a replacement screen and the rest of the cap is sound, that can be enough. A piece of generic mesh is not the same thing, because the opening size affects both sparks and draft.
