Chimney Caps

Chimney caps may seem like a minor detail, but they are essential for shielding your home from moisture, debris, and wildlife—particularly in mountain climates prone to snow and ice. At Leo’s Roofing & Remodeling, we specialize in custom-fabricated caps that fit snugly on top of your chimney, helping maintain proper airflow and keeping water from infiltrating the roof line. This extra barrier is crucial in Summit County, where heavy snowfall and unpredictable weather can otherwise lead to leaks, draft issues, or structural damage.

As part of the installation process, our team also addresses any areas that typically accumulate snow or water, sometimes recommending a chimney cricket for better runoff. We use top-grade materials like Grace Ice & Water Shield around the chimney base, ensuring leaks don’t form in high-risk spots. Because everything is custom-crafted, you get a solution that integrates seamlessly with your existing roof—whether it’s asphalt shingles, standing seam metal, or a hybrid. If gutters or downspouts need adjustment near the chimney, we’ll coordinate those updates to keep water flowing away from critical areas.

By pairing thorough waterproofing methods with precision metal fabrication we create a chimney system that’s wind-resistant, prevents animal intrusions, and reduces the potential for costly repairs in the long run. It’s a straightforward but vital step toward preserving your roof’s integrity and extending its lifespan—especially in the demanding environment of Summit County.
