Chimneys have crowns, kind of like kings do. And similarly, the crown is on the top. A chimney crown is the uppermost portion of the chimney that comes into direct contact with all the wild elements of nature. The chimney crown is an important part of the chimney system. It is the flat area around the top flue tile of the chimney that acts as an umbrella for the entire chimney structure. The chimney crown is not to be confused with the chimney cap, which is an attachment that is added to the top of the top flue tile to keep debris from entering the chimney flue, and sparks from escaping out. The chimney crown tops off the masonry walls of the chimney with a small concrete roof that prevents water from seeping into the bricks and mortar that make up your chimney. This simple act of maintaining the crown’s structure can actually save homeowners thousands of dollars in costly chimney crown repair and water damage repairs.

As such, this exposed piece of masonry usually degrades fairly rapidly. Since it is the top of the masonry or brick chimney, and since water always runs downhill, a cracked or damaged crown may quickly let water into the next course of bricks or stone below it. The freeze / thaw cycle makes short work out of the next row, and so it goes down the chimney. It is typically close to $1,000 to re-pour a correct chimney crown. This damage can be avoided by having a CCP Qualified Midtown technician apply a coating of Crown Coat on top your chimney.

The solution for Chimney Crowns that need Repair

At Midtown Chimney Sweeps we are big believers in saving money. We do not sell expensive solutions when a simple cheaper solution will do the job equally as well. That is why we apply Crown Coat to the tops of masonry chimney crowns. The attributes of Crown Coatare that it is a:

  • Specialized chemical formula of grey paint designed to bind to masonry cement and hold up under adverse conditions while waterproofing and shedding water off the chimney crown.
  • Unique quick-drying water-base technology
  • Universal waterproofing membrane used wherever waterproofing a horizontal surface is required
  • Excellent filler of cracks and voids for chimney crown repair
  • Huge benefit to older chimneys which will otherwise quickly fall into disrepair and soon require very expensive masonry work.

15 Year Warranty & Made in the USA

It is a wonderful comfort to know that all Chimney Saver Products like Crown Coat come with a 15 year warranty on the product. This ensures a long lasting product life on the top of your commercial chimney crown.All of our Crown Coat products are made in the USA, so you can enjoy the fact that you are supporting US companies owned by other Americans. The products are mixed and shipped from the heartland of America to wherever Midtown technicians require crown coat products to defend chimneys from freezing rain and ice.

We've been using them to service our fireplace for three years and always receive outstanding service. I highly recommend!
Midtown helped us replace our gas fireplace with an amazing wood burning fireplace. We absolutely love it. The owner was knowledgeable, on time, meticulous, and great to work with. He stayed two hours to help the permit inspector understand the regulations and how it was installed correctly. I highly recommend their entire team

We are very pleased with the fireplace installation and masonry work done by Midtown Chimney and Fireplace Store. We had a wood burning insert that was no longer code compliant and Byron educated us on the new code and helped us with a turn-key installation. Other companies gave us bids, but did want to include any masonry work. Chris was very attentive to doing everything right! Thank you, Byron . . . We finished just in time for the incoming storms!
Response from the owner: Wow, thank you Jeff for sharing your positive experience with Byron and Chris! Byron is a true professional and always happy to share his knowledge!

We had Byron from Midtown chimney fireplace store how to clean our open style wood burning fireplace.He did a good job cleaning it. Although it sounds like we need to have some creosote removed and maybe crown coat at the top but he was nice to work with .He also mentioned a woodburning insert with a $2000 tax credit possible so I might be interested in getting a woodburning insert with a full length insulated liner.
Response from the owner: Thank you for sharing your positive experience with us, Adam! Always happy to share our knowledge! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions or anything is needed. Thanks again and please take care!- The Midtown Chimney Team🎩

Byron was awesome! They took our damaged 1963 midcentury block fireplace and turned it into the centerpiece of our home with a new regency insert. Tax credit, comfort and resiliency in case of power outage - this thing heats our 2200sf house no problem at the coldest temps in south boulder

We were very pleased with John who came to clean our wood burning fireplace, he explained what he was doing and why. He was very knowledgeable, answered all of our questions thoroughly. You have a wonderful employee in John, and we are so appreciative that he took time to explain everything, and did a super job. He left everything clean too. A job well done, John, thank you.

We had Monty from Midtown Chimney Sweeps come to our house today and do a thorough inspection and cleaning of our main chimney. Monty's time and expertise was well worth the price, inspecting any and all connection points inside the chimney with a camera, cleaning out the chimney, and explaining how to best operate it moving forward. We had used a different company before which took 20min w/ an amazon drill for a similar price and we were hesitant to try it again. After this experience, I'll stick w/ MCS from here on out. Well worth the price if you want to make sure your fireplace is safe to use for the winter!
Response from the owner: Wow, thank you so much Alex! We truly appreciate your time sharing your positive experience with Monty! Happy to be of knowledgeable and thorough service! Looking forward to next year's cleaning! Please don't hesitate to reach out if anything is needed in the meantime, take care!- The Midtown Chimney Team🎩
