Fast, Reliable Chimney Cap & Crown Across Highland Village
Chimney cap and crown repair in Highland Village typically runs $180-$650 depending on whether we’re sealing a hairline crack or replacing a rusted chase cover, and most jobs finish in a single visit. If you’re seeing water stains on the ceiling near your fireplace or hearing animals scratching above the flue, the cap or crown has likely failed. Call (844) 803-1545 - a live person answers, even at midnight on a Sunday.
We’ve worked the lakefront subdivisions along Yacht Club Road and Highland Shores long enough to know what the lake breeze does to an unprotected chimney. That steady humidity off Lake Lewisville drives rain sideways into chases, rusts prefab firebox dampers, and turns mortar crowns to crumbles faster than you’ll see twenty miles inland. Highland Village isn’t like other DFW suburbs. The homes here, mostly built between the mid-1980s and early 2000s, were constructed with factory-built zero-clearance fireplaces that are now hitting or exceeding their 25-30 year service life. We’ve replaced chase covers on houses in Highland Village where the original galvanized steel had rotted through completely, and we’ve re-poured concrete crowns in neighborhoods near Marcus High School where the original builder’s mix was never sealed properly. When you call us, you’re getting technicians who understand this specific housing stock and this specific climate, not a dispatcher reading from a generic script.
Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Highland Village’s Preferred Chimney Cap & Crown Company
Highland Village homeowners tend to stay put. They’ve raised families in these subdivisions, they know their neighbors, and they remember which contractors showed up late and which ones stood behind their work. For over 42 years, we’ve built our reputation on being the latter. Our Chimney Cap & Crown team doesn’t subcontract to day laborers or push unnecessary upsells. We document every inspection with Level-2 camera footage you can see yourself, followed by a plain-English verdict - no jargon, no scare tactics.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and carry the professional-grade materials to complete most cap and crown jobs in a single visit. That matters in Highland Village, where a failed cap during a February Arctic snap can mean water pouring into a chase while you’re trying to get a fire going. We answer the phone with a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No callback queues, no apps, no “leave a message and we’ll get back to you.” When you need us, we’re here.
The 90-Day Done Right Promise governs everything we do. If it’s not right, we come back and make it right - in writing, no arguing, no paperwork to chase down. That’s the K.E.Y.S. code: Krafted right, Every time, Your home first, Standing behind it. In a town where people talk to their neighbors, we intend to be the company they’re still recommending thirty years from now.
Our Chimney Cap & Crown Services in Highland Village
Cap Installation
New cap installation in Highland Village typically costs $280-$450 for a standard single-flue stainless steel unit, with multi-flue custom caps running higher depending on chase dimensions. We install Gelco and Famco caps engineered for the wind exposure and lateral rain common to lakefront properties. A proper cap stops water, blocks animals, and keeps sparks where they belong. For homes in the Highland Shores area with prefabricated chases, we measure precisely - an ill-fitting cap is worse than no cap at all, because it traps moisture and accelerates rust.

Cap Replacement
Cap replacement is our most common call in Highland Village, and it usually means the original galvanized cap has rusted through after 15-20 years of lake humidity. We remove the failed unit, inspect the flue and crown beneath for hidden damage, and install a replacement that fits correctly and vents properly. Most replacements run $220-$380. If the chase cover beneath the cap has also deteriorated - common on homes built in the 1990s near the original Highland Village shopping district - we’ll show you photos and give you an upfront price for both.

Crown Repair
Concrete crowns crack. In Highland Village, the combination of summer heat, winter freezes, and year-round humidity off Lake Lewisville causes thermal expansion and moisture intrusion that accelerates spalling. Crown repair runs $180-$340 for crack sealing and resurfacing with professional-grade crown coat material. We use Olympia Chimney products formulated for North Texas temperature swings. For crowns with significant deterioration, we may recommend a full rebuild - we’ll tell you exactly what we see and why, with photos.

Crown Coating
Preventive crown coating costs $150-$280 and adds years of life to a sound but unsealed crown. We apply a flexible, waterproof membrane that breathes while blocking moisture. In Highland Village’s climate, this is smart maintenance for any crown more than five years old, especially on homes near the lake where humidity never really lets up. We also handle Chimney Liner & Rebuild in Highland Village when crown failure has allowed water to damage the flue system below.

Trusted Brands We Service in Highland Village
We don’t use builder-grade substitutes. Our trucks carry professional-grade caps, crowns, and chase covers from Gelco, Famco, and Olympia Chimney - brands that hold up to Highland Village’s specific conditions. Gelco’s stainless steel caps resist the salt-laden humidity that comes off Lake Lewisville better than the galvanized units most builders installed originally. Famco’s multi-flue designs accommodate the oversized chases common in 1990s-era homes near Briarhill Middle School. We stock standard sizes and can order custom dimensions with fast turnaround, so you’re not waiting weeks with an open flue. Every part we install is covered under our 90-Day Done Right Promise - if it fails, we replace it, no arguing.
Common Chimney Cap & Crown Problems We See in Highland Village Homes
- Rusted chase covers on prefabricated fireplaces. The lake breeze drives rain laterally into unprotected chases along Yacht Club Road and surrounding subdivisions, rotting the galvanized steel covers that builders installed in the 1980s and 1990s. By the time homeowners notice water stains, the firebox damper is often seized with rust.
- Spalling concrete crowns from freeze-thaw cycles. Highland Village sees sudden temperature drops every winter, sometimes 40 degrees in a single day. Water trapped in porous crown concrete expands, flakes off surface layers, and opens pathways for more moisture - a cycle that destroys an unsealed crown in five to seven years.
- Animal intrusion through missing or damaged caps. Squirrels, raccoons, and chimney swifts are active year-round in the mature oak canopy of Highland Village’s established neighborhoods. A missing cap means nesting material, parasites, and blocked flues - a fire hazard and a health hazard.
- Failed crown sealant from original construction. Many homes near Marcus High School were built with crowns poured from standard mortar mix and never sealed. The material was never meant to serve as a waterproof cap, and it deteriorates predictably as it approaches the 25-year mark.

If the flue liner has been damaged by water infiltration, that requires separate repair. We give you the full picture before we start, with no-hassle upfront pricing.
