How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney stainless single-flue caps (SC-series): The 304-grade mesh on SC-series caps corrodes at the weld points faster than the cap body, especially where West Chester’s freeze-thaw cycles trap moisture against the flue collar. We see this most often on homes near Everhart Park built in the 1990s. We replace with either an OEM Olympia cap or a Gelco equivalent with heli-arc welds and a longer skirt - your choice, priced both ways in writing.
• Olympia Chimney multi-flue caps (Multi-Flue and K-series): The K-series uses a lighter gauge lid that dimples under heavy snow load. After the 2021 storms, we replaced seven in West Chester’s western subdivisions alone. Our fix is a 24-gauge replacement lid with reinforced cross-breaking, or a full upgrade to a DuraFlex multi-flue frame if the base rail has bent.
• Olympia Chimney masonry crowns poured over clay flue tiles: Olympia’s spec calls for a two-inch overhang minimum, but we regularly find original crowns in West Chester’s pre-1980 colonials that were poured flush with the brick - no drip edge, no expansion gap. Water runs straight down the face and destroys the mortar bed. We cut back to sound concrete, form a proper four-inch overhang with a drip groove, and seal with HeatShield CrownCoat or pour a new Portland-based crown.
• Olympia Chimney factory-built chase covers (CF-series): The CF-series galvanized chase cover rusts through at the field seams in fifteen to eighteen years - predictable, but often missed until water stains the firebox ceiling. We fabricate a replacement in stainless or copper through our Famco supply line, with a cross-break and storm collar spec that exceeds the original. Camera documentation shows you the rust penetration before we quote.
• Olympia Chimney cap-to-flue fit on oversized flues: Olympia’s standard cap sizes don’t always cover the flue tile plus expansion gap on older West Chester homes with 13×13 or 15×15 flues. A cap that sits too tight cracks the flue lip; one that sits too loose blows off in a March wind. We measure with a flue ruler, not eyeballing, and source the correct base dimension from Olympia or machine a custom adapter through Copperfield - again, both prices in writing before you decide.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers, 24/7. We book a Level 2 camera inspection - not a flashlight look - and text you when your tech is en route.
2. 2
   Inspect and document. Your tech runs a camera down the flue, photographs the crown or cap from the roof, and records mesh condition, rust patterns, and flue tile integrity. Clause 4 of the Haven Standard requires this photo record; we’ve done it on every job since 2009.
3. 3
   Diagnose and price in writing. Corrine Halstead reviews the findings with your tech. You get a written scope, a written price, and a written warranty before anyone picks up a tool. The camera doesn’t negotiate - it just shows you what’s there.
4. 4
   Source parts correctly. We order OEM Olympia Chimney components when they’re available and cost-competitive. When lead times stretch or pricing spikes, we quote a quality aftermarket equivalent from DuraFlex, Gelco, or HeatShield - same fit, same function, with the warranty difference explained plainly.
5. 5
   Install and verify. Cap jobs get a pull-test and mesh clearance check. Crown jobs get a water spray test from the roof and a firebox inspection for leaks. Everything is photographed and added to your documented record.
6. 6
   Clean up and guarantee. We haul off the old material. Your job is stamped under the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right.
