Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown Nationwide

Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown in Cherry Hill: What to Know First

We provide independent Olympia Chimney chimney cap and crown service throughout Cherry Hill, with most inspections scheduled within a few days and repairs completed in a single visit when possible. A standard Olympia Chimney cap replacement runs $280-$520; crown repair or coating typically falls between $340-$780 depending on accessibility and damage. We do not quote over the phone for crown work without looking, because a crown that looks cracked from the ground can be superficial or structural, and we will not guess which.

Call (856) 543-2929

This page is for homeowners who already have an Olympia Chimney component in their flue system and need the cap or crown addressed. If you are unsure of your brand, call us at (856) 543-2929 and we will verify it during scheduling. Russell Haines and our crew have worked on Olympia Chimney products in Cherry Hill homes for years, including the older colonials over in Barclay Farm where the fireplaces and their original caps have seen four decades of freeze-thaw cycles.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney 304-alloy single-flue caps: The spot-welded seam at the crown of the lid collects water in Cherry Hill’s freeze-thaw winters. We see this split open on homes near Croft Farm every March. Our fix is removal, seam welding with 308L filler rod, and a bead of high-temp silicone at the joint, or replacement with a Gelco cap if the metal has thinned.
• Olympia Chimney multi-flue hood-style caps ( galvanized): The galvanized coating on earlier production runs chalks and flakes after 12-15 years of Camden County humidity. Homeowners in Ashland notice rust streaks on the brick before they see the cap itself. We swap these for stainless Olympia Chimney replacements or, when the flue spacing is non-standard, fabricate a custom Gelco or Famco fit.
• Olympia Chimney wind-directional caps: The rotating collar seizes with creosote glaze, common in Cherry Hill homes that burn unseasoned oak. The cap stops spinning, which defeats its draft-assist purpose and accelerates corrosion at the base flange. We disassemble, soak the collar in degreaser, re-lubricate with nickel anti-seize, and replace the cap if the bearing surface is pitted.
• Olympia Chimney concrete crowns poured with their liner systems: The crown mix is specified lean for weight, which leaves it porous. Water wicks through, freezes, and spalls the surface in 8-12 years. We grind back to sound concrete, apply a bonding agent, and topcoat with HeatShield CrownCoat or pour a new 4-inch reinforced crown with proper overhang and drip edge.
• Olympia Chimney top-sealing dampers integrated with cap assemblies: The cable housing corrodes where it exits the cap, especially on north-facing chimneys in Cherry Hill that never fully dry. The damper sticks open or jams shut. We replace the cable and housing with stainless components, or convert to a separate Gelco damper and cap if the integrated frame is distorted.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown Process

1. 1
   Schedule and arrival. You call (856) 543-2929, a live person answers, and we book a window. Our technician arrives uniformed, background-checked, and with the Olympia Chimney parts catalog on tablet.
2. 2
   Level-2 camera inspection. We run a camera up the flue before touching the cap or crown. You see the footage on screen. The chimney either draws the way it should, or it does not - and we will not leave until we know which.
3. 3
   Parts decision. We stock common Olympia Chimney caps and crowns on our truck. If your model is discontinued or the lead time is unreasonable, we source a quality aftermarket equivalent from Gelco or Famco that matches the flue specification. We explain OEM versus aftermarket trade-offs and warranty implications before you decide.
4. 4
   Repair or replacement. Cap swaps take 45-90 minutes. Crown work runs 2-4 hours: grinding, patching, or forming and pouring. We protect your roof and landscaping. No shortcuts on mortar cure time or coating thickness.
5. 5
   Post-repair test and documentation. We run the camera again, verify draft with a manometer, and photo-document the finished cap or crown. You get the images, a plain-English verdict, and the written 90-Day Done Right Promise before we pack up.
6. 6
   Cleanup and billing. We haul away the old cap or debris. The invoice matches the upfront estimate. No surprises on the bill.
