Custom Terne-Coated Stainless Steel Chimney Wash CapsStandard mortar chimney caps and factory covers frequently crack, leak, and fail over time under severe weather exposure. Sugarsbridge Contractors custom-fabricates terne-coated stainless steel wash caps to deliver a permanent, watertight protective crown for the masonry chimney structure.
Project Scope & Technical Details:
Custom Fabrication: Custom-formed heavy-gauge terne-coated stainless steel wash caps engineered to fit the precise dimensions of the chimney top.
Hand-Soldered Seams: All connecting metal seams and flue flange transitions were hand-soldered on site to create a monolithic water barrier.
Flue Flange Integration: Integrated custom-fitted flue flanges around the chimney flues to prevent water penetration down the masonry liner.
Lightning Protection System: Connected the existing lightning rod system directly through the custom wash cap assembly using dedicated connectors.
