Caps and fireplace dampers work best when they are measured for the actual opening and matched to the problem you are trying to solve.

Very happy with the work Franklin did at my house. Came out and gave an estimate and had work done same day. The crew cleaned, capped, pointed three chimneys and added a very stubborn flue connected to the boiler.
Selling my house, and I wanted the chimney inspected They found an issue, and they were able to fix it super fast! Good people!
Franklin Chimney did a wonderful job fixing my chimney and putting in a stainless-steel liner and cap on top of my chimney. They came out quickly for an estimate and did the work in the same week. They were very professional and explained everything they would be doing before the job started. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest, reliable, and high-quality service. Thank you for making this such a great experience!
I had an emergency situation that needed immediate help. Franklin chimney came the next morning and estimated the job for me. The estimate was totally in line with the research other companies that I had done and Franklin came out the next day to do the job. I am so relieved to have this major problem in my house corrected. They were great communicators, on time, clean, fair, professional, and did a great job I could not recommend them more.

We needed a level 2 chimney inspection on a quick timeline for our HOA. Franklin Chimney came out in less than 48 hours. Booking was very easy and price was significantly better than competitors. Our technician Madi was very efficient and made sure we had the report we needed.
Tony was honest, excellent, and professional in my home. Strongly recommend
A great experience. The workmanship was exceptional and the pricing was way under other estimates. No overselling and high quality finish work. Count me very happy.
Thanks you for Franklin chimney for a wonderful job, they did the chimney liner professional and clean job
I called Franklin Chimney when I noticed flies coming out of my wood burning stove. Maty was here within an hour. He sent a drone up on my roof and discovered a few holes in the mesh that was easy access for birds or squirrels to enter. He sent 2 guys out the next day. They were friendly, efficient and fast. They removed 4 birds and a squirrel. Put a new cap on chimney and sealed it off with mesh. They were done in about 2 hours. I highly recommend Franklin Chimney....thank you for doing a great job!
For many local homes, the chimney top is exposed to wet leaves, heavy rain, damp shoulder seasons, winter wind, and roofline turbulence. A missing or poorly fitted cap leaves the flue open, while a failed damper can make the fireplace feel drafty even when it is not in use. The right visit measures first and separates cap problems from leak problems.
Caps and dampers are measured on site for older masonry openings, multi-flue stacks, and chase covers.
We check whether the problem is an open flue, a failed damper, a top-sealing need, or another roofline issue.
You see the missing cap, rusted cover, damaged damper, cracked crown, or debris path before approving work.
If the chimney top is open, drafty, damaged, or letting water in, start with an on-site measurement.
