How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney stainless caps with rusted rivet seams. Older Olympia Chimney single-flue caps (the bolt-on round and square styles sold for decades through supply houses in Newark) tended to use galvanized rivets on a stainless shell. The rivets corrode first. The cap doesn’t fall apart, but it starts to rattle in wind and lets water sit in the seam. We replace with all-stainless hardware and a properly sized worm clamp, and the repair holds.
• Olympia Chimney multi-flue caps that are too shallow for Newark’s rain pattern. Newark gets steady, wind-driven rain in spring and fall, and several Olympia Chimney multi-flue caps have hood overhangs that look fine from the ground but don’t shield the inner flues enough. Water tracks down the outside of the liner and stains the smoke shelf. We spec a deeper-hood replacement or add a drip edge where the design allows it.
• Crowns cracked by Olympia Chimney cap mounting plates. This one shows up constantly in Newark’s older brick and stucco row houses near Branch Brook Park. The original crown was poured tight around the flue tile, someone added an Olympia cap with a metal mounting plate, and expansion cracked the crown at the bolt holes. The cap is sound. The crown is not. We remove the cap, cut and repour the crown with proper expansion clearance around the flue, and remount the cap with a flexible sealant joint so it can move.
• Olympia Chimney Chase covers failing on factory-built fireplace systems. On Newark homes built in the last 20 to 25 years with prefab fireplace systems, the Olympia chase cover is often the first metal component to go. Galvanized steel chase covers rust out along the folded corners, and the water runs down inside the chase, rusting out the fireplace’s firebox and flue pipe. We replace with stainless steel covers fabricated to the exact chase dimensions, with a slight pitch built in so water runs off instead of pooling.
• Cracked original flue tile under a perfectly good Olympia cap. The cap keeps out most weather, but no cap stops heat spalling in a 40-year-old clay tile. This is the case where the camera matters most: a Level 2 camera scan shows the flue tile cracks and shifts, and the right fix isn’t a new cap at all, it’s liner work. We’ll say it plainly when the cap can stay and the real issue is below it. No one in Newark needs a new $450 cap bolted onto a failing flue.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown Process

1. 1
   You call (862) 245-4309, and a live person answers. We book a time, name the technician who’ll be at your door, and text a confirmation. No voicemail tag, no web form wait.
2. 2
   We set up and run an NFPA 211 Level 2 camera scan. The camera goes down the flue and the crown gets inspected from the roof. We photograph everything as we go, not just when we find something worth putting in a report.
3. 3
   We write the findings with prices on one page. If the Olympia cap is fine and the crown is the problem, you’ll see the exact measurements that told us so, the exact work that fixes it, and the dollar figure, in writing, before anything is signed.
4. 4
   Parts: OEM Olympia where it’s structural, aftermarket where it’s better. Flue tiles, chase covers, and crown materials come from suppliers we trust. When an aftermarket cap from Copperfield does the job better than an OEM Olympia part, we’ll tell you why and show you the difference in the quote.
5. 5
   The repair and the test. Crown poured and cured, cap mounted and sealed, everything re-camered to verify the flue is clear and the fit is right. We adjust until it’s right, never until it’s just adequate.
6. 6
   You receive a documented photo record. Clause 4 of the Haven Standard requires a photo record on every job, and that’s been our practice since 2009. The photos, the camera footage notes, the written scope, and the written warranty go to you the same day.

Every job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s stamped on the paperwork, not spoken over a handshake.

What Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown Costs in Newark

Here’s the straight pricing for the Olympia Chimney work we see most in Newark:

• Single-flue cap replacement: $325-$480 for a standard stainless cap, installed. Larger custom sizes run to $550.
• Multi-flue cap replacement: $550-$780 depending on flue spacing and hood depth.
• Crown repair (crack fill and seal): $225-$425 where the crown is still structurally sound.
• Crown repour (full removal and new pour): $850-$1,650 depending on flue count and access.
• Stainless chase cover replacement: $480-$950 fabricated and installed, depending on chase dimensions.

Price moves with access, roof pitch, flue count, and whether masonry repairs are needed under the crown. We also handle liner work with DuraFlex and HeatShield materials and Gelco coatings, so if the camera shows the problem runs deeper than the cap, you’ll get one honest recommendation instead of a second appointment with someone else.

Why Newark Homeowners Call Level Two Chimney Newark for Olympia Chimney Work

We’re an independent Olympia Chimney service provider, not a manufacturer-authorized shop, which means our loyalty sits with the house, not the parts bin. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and the license number is on the page where you can see it before booking. We’ve completed more than 38,000 chimney inspections and cleanings since 2009, and every single one had a written price before work started. No exceptions. If you have a competitor’s written quote, we’ll do a free second opinion based on what the camera shows, not on who wrote the number. We work across the brands Newark homes actually carry: DuraFlex, HeatShield, and Gelco alongside Olympia Chimney, and materials are procured through Haven’s buying network specifically to keep the price honest. A text when the tech is on the way. A written warranty before they leave. That’s the bar.
