The chimney crown is the concrete cap at the very top of your chimney in Applecroft, Ajax. It sheds water off the top of the masonry and away from the flue. When it cracks, water pours into every course of brick below it — and freeze-thaw does the rest.

Why chimney crown repair matters in Applecroft, Ajax

Top-Down Water Damage

A cracked crown is the source of almost every spalling-brick problem on GTA chimneys.

Cheap Fix Now, Expensive Fix Later

Resealing a crown is a $400–$800 job. Rebuilding a spalled chimney is $4,000+.

Overhang Matters

A proper crown overhangs the brick by 1–2" with a drip edge. Flush-poured crowns funnel water straight into the masonry.

Chimney Crown Repair reviews in Applecroft, Ajax

4.9 average from 743 verified customer reviews
Raccoon eviction and cap fitted
Family of raccoons in the flue. They removed them humanely, cleaned everything, and fitted a stainless guard that has kept them out since.
Alicia D. - Ajax - 2026-02-25
Post-fire inspection
Small flue fire in January. They inspected, documented the damage, and coordinated the report with my insurer without me chasing anyone.
Daniel K. - North York - 2026-05-02
Honest about what I did not need
They told me the flue did not need sweeping yet and charged only for the inspection. First contractor in years to talk me out of spending money.

Camera scan caught a cracked tile
Previous company swept and said everything was fine. Diamond ran a camera and showed me a cracked liner tile on screen. Glad I got the second opinion.
