This page is for Haverhill homeowners who already have an Olympia Chimney cap or crown installed and need honest answers about what’s failing, what it’ll cost, and whether the fix requires OEM parts or a quality aftermarket alternative. Corrine Halstead and our crew have worked on Olympia Chimney products across the Merrimack Valley for years, including the older galvanized caps that came standard on many 2015-2019 builds near Washington Square where the salt air off the Merrimack accelerates corrosion faster than the warranty language suggests.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney 13×13 and 17×17 galvanized single-flue caps - the mesh on these develops pinpoint rust at the weld points where the screen meets the hood, especially on Haverhill homes within a mile of the river where morning fog carries chloride. We see this on roofs near Riverside Park regularly. The screen separates from the frame, squirrels get in, and the homeowner discovers it when nesting material drops into the flue. We replace with a stainless aftermarket cap from our Haven buying network or source direct Olympia Chimney replacement if the flue collar geometry demands it.
• Olympia Chimney multi-flue “chimney cap” models with integrated crown slope - these are actually cap-and-crown hybrid units, common on newer Haverhill construction from 2018-2022. The powder coat fails at the drip edge first, not from UV but from freeze-thaw cycling; Haverhill’s 40-50 annual freeze-thaw days exceed the design spec for the original coating batch. Water gets behind the metal, the underlying crown concrete spalls, and the cap lifts. We strip the hybrid unit, assess the poured crown beneath, and either recoat with a crown sealant or pour new crown concrete before installing a proper standalone cap with independent drip edge.
• Olympia Chimney “wind-resistant” series with internal baffles - the baffle pivot pins seize after 3-4 seasons of Merrimack Valley pollen and coastal dust. The cap still looks fine from the ground, but the baffles are stuck open or stuck shut, defeating the downdraft protection that sold the homeowner on the upgrade. We diagnose this with a borescope from the top down; if the pin corrosion is advanced, we replace with a Gelco or Famco equivalent that uses a simpler static hood design, or source the Olympia Chimney pin kit if the customer prefers OEM.
• Olympia Chimney crown wash applications on pre-fab chase covers - Olympia’s crown coating product is cementitious, specified for masonry crowns, but we find it applied directly to galvanized chase covers on Haverhill townhomes where a mason didn’t understand the substrate. The coating delaminates in sheets within 18 months because metal expands at a different rate than the cement layer. We remove the failed coating, treat the chase cover with a rust-inhibiting primer, and apply a flexible crown coating rated for metal substrates, typically from HeatShield’s line.
• Olympia Chimney “lifetime” stainless caps with soldered seam construction - the solder joint at the hood peak cracks on south-facing exposures in Haverhill, not from heat but from daily thermal expansion cycling. The crack propagates slowly, so the homeowner sees a water stain on the firebox ceiling before they see roof damage. We remove the cap, re-sweat the joint with high-temp solder if the stainless gauge is still sound, or replace with a one-piece stamped alternative from our Haven network that eliminates the seam entirely.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown Process

1. 1
   Schedule and arrival. You call (351) 444-9705, a live person answers, and we book a window. You get a text when your tech is en route with a name and photo, per Haven Standard Clause 3.
2. 2
   NFPA 211 Level 2 inspection with camera. We run a camera down the flue before touching the cap or crown. The camera doesn’t guess. Neither do I. Corrine Halstead established this practice in 2009, and Haven Standard Clause 4 requires the photo record on every job. We document the flue condition, the smoke chamber, and the interior of the cap from below if accessible.
3. 3
   Roof-level assessment and parts decision. We photograph the cap and crown from the roof, measure flue opening and crown dimensions, and determine whether your Olympia Chimney part is repairable, replaceable with OEM, or better served by an aftermarket equivalent from DuraFlex, Gelco, or Famco. We explain the trade-off: OEM preserves any remaining warranty coverage on the cap itself, while aftermarket often gives better stainless gauge or a longer drip edge for Haverhill’s driving rains.
4. 4
   Written price, scope, and warranty. Before any work starts, you receive a written price with line items, a written scope of work, and a written warranty document. Haven Standard Clause 1, H.A.V.E.N. “Have it in writing.” No exceptions.
5. 5
   Repair or replacement with documentation. We complete the cap installation, crown repair, or crown coating. For crown work, we photograph the finished surface and note curing time. For cap replacements, we document the flue collar seal and spark arrestor mesh integrity.
6. 6
   Final camera verification and record delivery. We run the camera again to confirm no debris entered during the work, then deliver your documented photo record and final invoice. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every document.

Why Haverhill Homeowners Call Level Two Chimney Haverhill for Olympia Chimney Work

We’ve inspected and cleaned more than 38,000 chimneys since 2009, every one with a written price before work started and a documented record when finished. That archive practice became Haven Standard Clause 4, and we apply it to every Olympia Chimney cap and crown job in Haverhill.

Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and assigned by name. You know who’s coming. Our materials come through the Haven buying network from DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield, which keeps customer prices honest and gives us options when a particular Olympia Chimney part is back-ordered or discontinued.

The 365-Day Done Right Promise means if the cap leaks, the crown coating cracks, or the flue collar seal fails within a year, we make it right. No argument, no additional inspection fee. Corrine Halstead put that in place because she grew up watching contractors disappear after the check cleared, and she runs her crew the opposite way.
