Chimney Cap Installation & Repair Services for Homes

Chimney caps play a critical role in protecting your chimney and home. Without a properly installed and secure chimney cap, animals such as birds, squirrels, raccoons, and bats can enter the chimney, creating safety hazards, blockages, and costly damage.

Moorman’s Wildlife Management & Pest Control provides professional chimney cap installation and repair services designed to prevent wildlife entry, reduce moisture damage, and improve overall chimney performance.


Common Chimney Cap Problems

Homeowners often need chimney cap services due to:

  • Missing or improperly installed chimney caps
  • Rusted, damaged, or loose chimney caps
  • Wildlife entering or nesting inside chimneys
  • Debris blocking airflow
  • Water intrusion causing chimney deterioration

Addressing chimney cap issues early helps prevent larger chimney and home repair problems.


Why Chimney Cap Installation Is Important

A properly installed chimney cap helps:

  • Prevent wildlife from entering the chimney
  • Keep rain, snow, and debris out of the flue
  • Reduce chimney moisture damage
  • Improve chimney airflow and performance
  • Protect interior fireplace and venting systems

Chimney caps are a simple but critical part of home protection.


Our Chimney Cap Installation & Repair Process

Every service begins with an inspection to assess chimney condition and existing cap issues. Our process typically includes:

  • Inspecting the chimney opening and existing cap
  • Repairing or replacing damaged chimney caps
  • Securing caps to prevent wildlife entry
  • Installing chimney caps sized correctly for the flue
  • Recommending additional wildlife exclusion if needed

Our goal is long-term protection, not temporary fixes.


Chimney Cap Installation & Wildlife Prevention

Open chimneys are one of the most common wildlife entry points. Chimney cap installation works alongside:

  • Wildlife exclusion services
  • Squirrel, raccoon, and bird removal
  • Bat prevention and exclusion
  • Wildlife damage repair

Proper chimney caps help prevent repeat wildlife problems.


Chimney Cap Repair vs. Replacement

Wildlife Exclusion

Wildlife exclusion is a humane and effective method to deter wild animals from entering homes, buildings, and structures. This process entails identifying and sealing potential entry points, using barriers and deterrents to keep animals out, and creating an environment less appealing to wildlife. Unlike trapping exclusion emphasizes long-term prevention and is considered one of the most ethical wildlife management approaches. At Moorman's Wildlife Management, we are dedicated to promoting a harmonious coexistence between your home and the local wildlife. With our extensive service area stretching from Roanoke to Smith Mountain Lake, Moneta, Wirtz, Hardy, Burnt Chimney, Huddleston, Vinton, and beyond, we are committed to providing exceptional wildlife exclusion and removal services that acknowledge the vital role these creatures play in our ecosystem.
