Fast, Reliable Chimney Cap & Crown Across Hurst
Chimney cap and crown repair in Hurst typically runs $280-$650 for most residential jobs, and our technicians complete the majority in a single visit. We answer the phone with a live person every hour of every day at (844) 803-1545, and we carry the common cap sizes and crown coating materials needed for Hurst’s stock of mid-century ranch homes so we’re not ordering parts while your chimney sits open to weather.
We’ve been driving to Hurst since 1984, long before the Chisholm Trail Parkway shortened the run from our dispatch. The neighborhoods off Pipeline Road and throughout ZIP 76053 are familiar territory. We know which blocks have the original 1960s masonry chimneys with concrete crowns that have endured fifty summers of Texas heat, and which 1970s tracts near Bellaire Drive South have metal-prefab units that need a different approach entirely. That familiarity matters when you’re deciding whether a crown can be coated or needs rebuild, whether a cap is sized correctly for a clay-tile flue in an older Hurst home, or whether the real problem is the clay-heave stress that’s cracking the crown from below.
Our Chimney Cap & Crown team treats every Hurst job as a structural integrity check, not just a part swap. The black-clay soils here don’t forgive shortcuts.
Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Hurst’s Preferred Chimney Cap & Crown Company
We’ve served the Hurst area for over 42 years, and our reputation here was built one job at a time. Homeowners in the 76053 and 76054 ZIP codes know our trucks, and they know that when Russell Haines puts the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing, it means no arguing if something needs adjustment. We’ve returned to Hurst homes a season later to make a crown right at no charge; that is how a company that plans to be in Tarrant County for another thirty years acts.
Our response time to Hurst averages same-day or next-day for cap and crown work, and we schedule with a two-hour window, not “sometime Tuesday.” Every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and arrives with a Level-2 camera to document what your crown actually looks like. You see the photos. You get the plain-English verdict. Then you get the upfront price, and that number is the number on the invoice.
Hurst’s older neighborhoods reward this thoroughness. A cap that fits poorly on a shifted chimney stack, or a crown coating applied over active clay-heave cracks, is money thrown away. We don’t do that.
Our Chimney Cap & Crown Services in Hurst
Cap Installation
New cap installation in Hurst runs $220-$420 for standard single-flue galvanized or stainless units, with multi-flue and custom caps ranging higher. We measure on-site because the clay-tile flues in 1960s-1970s Hurst homes often have non-standard dimensions, and because chimney stacks in this city have shifted enough that a catalog-ordered cap may not seat square. Our Chimney Cap & Crown in Hurst installations include proper screening to keep out the squirrels and starlings that nest in idle North Texas chimneys through our long summers.

Cap Replacement
Replacement caps in Hurst cost $180-$380 for most residential jobs, not including any flashing or crown repair needed underneath. We often find that the original cap failed because the crown beneath it was already cracked from soil movement, so we inspect before we quote. If you’re in the older tracts near Hurstview Drive or along the original 76053 subdivisions, expect us to check for clay-heave damage that a simple cap swap would miss.

Crown Repair
Crown repair in Hurst typically ranges $340-$580 for partial rebuilds and resurfacing of concrete crowns on masonry chimneys. The February 2021 freeze stressed many Hurst crowns that were already marginal, and we’ve been rebuilding them since. We form and pour with proper slope and overhang, using professional-grade materials, because a flat crown in Hurst’s driving rains is a leak waiting to happen. If the flue liner is also compromised, we can coordinate Chimney Liner & Rebuild in Hurst in the same visit.

Crown Coating
Crown coating, a preventative application for crowns with minor cracking but sound structure, runs $180-$320 in Hurst. We use flexible, breathable coatings designed for Texas thermal cycling, not hardware-store caulk that will skin over and trap moisture. This is cost-effective maintenance for Hurst homeowners whose crowns are showing early age but haven’t yet failed. We won’t coat a crown that needs rebuild; we’ll show you the camera footage and explain why.

Multi-Flue & Custom Caps
Multi-flue caps for larger Hurst homes with multiple fireplaces, or custom fabricated caps for non-standard chimney profiles, range $450-$890 installed. We work with Olympia Chimney and Famco for standard and extended sizes, and we can source custom copper or stainless for heritage properties. Most custom orders arrive within a week, and we coordinate installation so you’re not chasing the job across multiple visits.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hurst
We stock and install professional-grade caps, crowns, and flashing materials from Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield, brands we’ve specified for decades because they hold up to North Texas conditions. For Hurst homeowners, this means no waiting on drop-shipped parts that may or may not fit your shifted chimney stack. Our trucks carry the common sizes for 1960s-1980s Hurst flue dimensions, and our supplier relationships get less common parts to us fast. We don’t use builder-grade substitutes. The cap that goes on your chimney is the same grade we’d put on our own.
Common Chimney Cap & Crown Problems We See in Hurst Homes
- Crown cracks from clay-heave stress. The expansive black-clay soils under Tarrant County push and pull chimney stacks seasonally. In Hurst’s 76053 neighborhoods, we regularly find crowns cracked in a characteristic pattern that looks like age but is actually ongoing soil movement. A surface patch without addressing the underlying shift, or at least designing for it, fails within a season or two.
- Cap rust and detachment after wet summers. Hurst’s humid summers and occasional hard rains corrode galvanized caps faster than drier climates. We see caps that have blown off or pulled loose, sometimes taking flashing with them, leaving the flue open to water that damages the liner below.
- Freeze-thaw crown deterioration from sporadic fireplace use. Because Hurst fireplaces sit cold most of the year, then fire heavily in sudden cold snaps, the crown concrete undergoes sharp thermal stress. Moisture that seeps into hairline cracks expands on the first hard freeze, widening damage that was invisible in October.
- Squirrel and bird entry through missing or poorly screened caps. Hurst’s mature tree canopy, especially in older neighborhoods near Bellaire Drive South and along Pipeline Road, supports active wildlife. A cap without proper mesh, or a cap missing entirely, becomes a nesting site. We’ve removed nests and deceased animals from chimneys that a proper cap would have protected.
Pricing for Chimney Cap & Crown in Hurst, TX
Most Hurst homeowners pay between $280 and $650 for cap and crown work, with simpler cap replacements at the lower end and full crown rebuilds with custom flashing at the upper. Here’s how typical jobs break down:
- Standard cap replacement: $180-$380
- New standard cap installation: $220-$420
- Crown coating (preventative): $180-$320

What moves the number? Crown height and accessibility matter. A chimney on a single-story ranch in 76054 is simpler to scaffold than a two-story stack on a hillside lot. The extent of hidden damage, once we camera-inspect, can add flashing repair or liner work. We give you the full picture before we start, with photos and a written estimate. No surprises on the bill.
We also offer $50 off any repair over $250, a permanent 5% senior and veteran discount, and free second opinions on any written estimate you’ve already received. Call (844) 803-1545 for your exact number. Estimates are free.

Yes, we work throughout ZIP codes 76053 and 76054, from the original post-war subdivisions near Hurstview Drive to the 1970s-1980s developments along Bellaire Drive South and throughout the Pipeline Road corridor. The age and soil conditions of these older neighborhoods are exactly why our Level-2 camera inspection and clay-heave assessment matter. We’ve capped and crowned chimneys on blocks where the original masons are long retired.
Yes, a live person answers our phones 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and we prioritize active water intrusion calls in Hurst for same-day response. If your crown has failed during a storm or your cap has blown off, we’ll get a technician out to assess and, if possible, secure the chimney temporarily while we order any needed custom parts. Call (844) 803-1545 anytime. The 90-Day Done Right Promise applies to emergency work just as it does to scheduled jobs.
Hurst pricing is comparable to Bedford and Richland Hills, slightly lower than Colleyville on average because of shorter drive times and fewer steep-roof access challenges. The bigger cost driver is your home’s specific condition, not your city. A straightforward cap replacement on a 76054 ranch runs the same as it would across the city line. Where Hurst homes often cost more is when clay-heave stress has cracked the crown and damaged flashing, requiring more extensive repair than a simple cap job. We price each job individually after inspection, with no-hassle upfront pricing.
Every cap and crown job in Hurst is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not right, we come back and make it right, no paperwork and no arguing. This is the Keystone Standard we’ve operated by since 1984. For materials, we honor manufacturer warranties on Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield products. The combination means you’re protected against both installation issues and product defects. We’ve been in Tarrant County long enough that Hurst homeowners know where to find us if they need us. Call (844) 803-1545 to schedule your free estimate.
