Brick Chimney Crowns

A chimney crown provides a masonry chimney with a sloped top surface to drain water off the top of a brick or stone chimney.  

If the crown is porous or cracked, water can penetrate and damage the underlying brick and mortar, causing deterioration and progressive destruction of the masonry chimney.
