What is chimney cap?
A chimney cap is the metal screen-and-cover assembly mounted on top of your chimney flue. It blocks rain, snow, and animals (raccoons, squirrels, birds) from entering, and stops sparks from escaping. A missing or rusted cap is one of the most common causes of water damage and animal infestation in DFW homes.
Common signs you need this service
- You hear scratching, chirping, or fluttering coming from inside the chimney, a sign birds or squirrels have gotten in.
- Rainwater is dripping into the firebox or you see fresh water stains on the walls around the fireplace after storms.
- Leaves, twigs, or other debris keep collecting in the flue and falling down into the firebox.
- You look up at the chimney and see the existing cap is missing, rusted through, crushed, or hanging loose.
Every chimney cap includes:
- On-site inspection with photos
- Written quote before any work begins
- Code-compliant materials only
- Drop cloths + HEPA vacuum cleanup
- Same-day photo report + warranty doc
Materials we use
How a chimney cap job runs.
Measure The Flue
We measure your flue opening and crown so the cap fits snugly and covers the openings it's meant to protect.
Choose The Cap
We help you pick a cap in a material and style that fits your flue size, your roofline, and the look of your home.
Secure The Install
We mount the cap firmly to the flue or crown so it stays put through wind and weather without rattling loose.
Confirm The Seal
We check that the cap sits level and fully covers the opening, then make sure nothing else up top needs attention.
Why DFW homeowners pick Texas Service Experts for chimney cap.
We've worked on 1,000+ DFW homes over 10+ years. Every job — small sweep or full rebuild — runs the same way: certified technicians, written quotes, photo reports, warranty in writing.
A chimney cap is your roofline's first defense against rain, animals, and debris, and the TSE crew installing it is already on your roof — so it's easy to pair the cap with a quick gutter or vent check while we're up there.
We size and fit each cap to your specific flue rather than forcing a generic one on, so it actually keeps critters and water out and holds up through North Texas storms instead of rattling loose by next spring.
We carry caps in stainless and durable finishes to match your home, and because we stock common sizes, most straightforward cap installs are handled in a single trip rather than a wait-and-reschedule.

Chimney Cap by location
Common questions about chimney cap.
How often should I have my chimney swept?
The NFPA recommends an annual chimney inspection (Level 1), with sweeping done when buildup reaches 1/8" of creosote. For active wood-burning fireplaces, that's typically once per heating season.
Are your technicians certified?
Our chimney inspectors hold current CSIA (Chimney Safety Institute of America) certifications, verifiable via the CSIA member directory at csia.org. We also have NFI specialists for fireplace installations.
Do you offer emergency service?
Yes — emergency response is available 24/7 (subject to crew availability) for active water leaks, animal trapped in flue, post-fire damage, and storm damage. Same-day in most cases.
Do you provide written quotes before work begins?
Always. We provide a written quote before any work begins, with photos of the issues we found. Final pricing depends on chimney condition and any additional work identified during inspection.
What's the Home Care Plan membership?
Home Care Plan is our annual maintenance program at $19.99/month ($240/year). Includes: annual Level 1 inspection and sweep ($248 value), priority scheduling, 10% off all repairs, and emergency response priority. Cancel anytime, no contract.
