Our technicians know the low-rise buildings along Kings Point Drive and the interior courtyard complexes near the clubhouse - we’ve been pulling into these parking lots since 1984.

Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Kings Point’s Preferred Chimney Cap & Crown Company
We’ve worked on the chase covers and crown structures in Kings Point’s condo buildings for over four decades. The original concrete crowns on these 1970s and 1980s low-rises were poured with minimal reinforcement and no overhang - they crack predictably after forty Florida summers, and we’ve replaced enough of them to know the exact rebar spacing and pour depth each building era used.
Our Kings Point customers call back. They refer their neighbors in the same building. That pattern matters more to us than any online rating.
Response time to Kings Point averages under 90 minutes from dispatch to arrival for urgent moisture intrusion or animal entry calls. We’re already working in Delray Beach and Boynton Beach most days, so your building isn’t a special trip - it’s our regular route.
We understand the condo association approval process here. Many Kings Point buildings require vendor certificates of insurance and pre-approval for exterior work above the second floor. We carry documentation for every major management company serving this community, and we’ve never had a job delayed for paperwork.
Our Chimney Cap & Crown Services in Kings Point
Cap Installation
New cap installation in Kings Point focuses on chase covers for gas fireplace and dryer vent terminations rather than traditional masonry chimneys. The flat-roofed condo blocks along Monaco Drive and the townhome rows near Lake Drive need stainless steel or copper caps with proper drip edges to shed our heavy summer rains. We measure on-site and fabricate to fit - no universal sizes that leave gaps for wasps or rainwater. Most Kings Point cap installations run $280-$420 and finish in one visit.
Cap Replacement
Cap replacement is our most common Kings Point call. The original galvanized caps from the 1970s have rusted through, and the first-generation stainless replacements from the 1990s are now failing at the weld seams. We remove the old unit, inspect the flue tile or chase structure beneath, and install a new cap from Famco or Copperfield with a proper storm collar. In Kings Point’s shared-wall buildings, we also check whether your vent termination connects to a common chase - one deteriorated cap can expose multiple units to moisture. Replacement typically costs $320-$480.
Crown Repair
Crown repair in Kings Point addresses the poured concrete tops of masonry chimney structures, though true masonry is rare here. More often, we’re repairing the concrete wash or metal crown on a gas-fireplace chase in the older courtyard buildings near the Kings Point main entrance. Cracks let humid Palm Beach County air into the chase, accelerating rust on dampers and firebox components. We grind out cracks, apply a bonding agent, and pour new crown material with proper slope and overhang - not a superficial caulk job that fails in six months. Crown repair in Kings Point runs $380-$580.
Crown Coating
Crown coating buys time when the concrete is sound but the surface is porous. In Kings Point’s climate, this matters - our year-round humidity drives moisture into any micro-crack, then the afternoon sun expands it. We apply HeatShield or a compatible flexible crown sealant after pressure-washing and priming. This isn’t paint; it’s a breathable membrane that moves with thermal expansion. Best for crowns with hairline cracking but no structural separation. Coating service runs $240-$360 and carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise - if it leaks, we come back, in writing, no arguing.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kings Point
We stock caps, crowns, and chase cover materials from Famco, Copperfield, and DuraFlex - brands that have proven themselves in South Florida’s salt air and UV exposure. For Kings Point customers, this means no waiting for a special order to arrive from Atlanta or Chicago. Our trucks carry the common sizes for your building era, and what we don’t have on hand, our Boca Raton supplier delivers next morning. The cap or crown on your unit gets the same material we’d put on our own home - professional grade, no builder-grade substitutes that fail at the seam in three years.
Common Chimney Cap & Crown Problems We See in Kings Point Homes
- Rust-through on original galvanized caps. The 1970s and 1980s construction throughout Kings Point used galvanized steel caps with a 15-20 year life expectancy. Forty years later, they’re perforated like Swiss cheese. Water drips directly onto the damper or into the firebox, and in shared chases, that moisture migrates horizontally into neighboring units.
- Cracked concrete crowns with no drip edge. Original crowns on Kings Point’s limited masonry structures were poured flush with the flue tile, so water runs straight down the chimney face. Our Florida downpours exploit that design flaw, spalling brick and rotting adjacent framing in the chase structure.
- Improperly sealed chase covers on gas fireplace terminations. Many Kings Point condo units have metal chase covers that were never properly counter-flashed where they meet the siding. Wind-driven rain from our summer storms enters at that joint, soaking insulation and creating the musty odors residents sometimes blame on their HVAC.
- Missing or damaged animal guards. Kings Point’s mature landscaping and proximity to the Wakodahatchee Wetlands means raccoons, squirrels, and the occasional iguana explore roof-level openings. A cap without a mesh guard, or with corroded mesh, invites nesting that blocks venting and creates fire hazards in dryer vent terminations.
