Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
Olympia Chimney builds solid products, but nothing shrugs off a Long Island winter forever. Here’s what we actually find on Deer Park rooftops.
- Flashing separation on Olympia stainless chimney systems. The metal flashing around the chimney base works hard in freeze-thaw cycles. Deer Park gets plenty of both. When flashing lifts or corrodes, water tracks down the chase and into the ceiling. We replace the flashing, re-seal the penetration, and re-bed the storm collar so it drains the way it should.
- Chase cover rust-through on factory-built units. Olympia chase covers take direct weather. Once rust pinholes form, water drips onto the firebox below. We fabricate a replacement cover with proper slope and paint it with high-heat rust inhibitor. The old cover usually tells the whole story when we set it next to the new one.
- Mortar joint deterioration around Olympia clay flue liners. If your home has an older Olympia masonry setup or a mix of brand components, the joints between flue tiles break down over time. Spalling and flaking mortar fall into the flue. We repoint the joints, patch the spalled brick, and apply a breathable waterproofing so the brick stops absorbing water.
- Rain cap and spark arrestor damage on Olympia terminations. Squirrels, branches, and coastal wind take a toll. A missing or bent rain cap lets water straight down the flue, and a blocked screen becomes a creosote trap. We replace caps and screens with correctly sized components and check the entire termination assembly while we’re up there.
- Chimney crown cracking on masonry systems with Olympia components. Deer Park’s temperature swings crack cement crowns. Once cracked, water gets into the brick below and the freeze-thaw cycle starts working against you. We rebuild or reseal the crown depending on how far the damage goes, and we slope it properly so water runs off instead of pooling.
Here’s the thing about Olympia Chimney products: most failures aren’t the product’s fault. They’re what happens when water, weather, and time team up on any chimney in Suffolk County. The fix is almost always less scary than it looks from the ground.
Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process
You’ll know what’s happening at every step. Here’s how a typical repair goes with us.
- 1
Call us at (631) 214-2108. A live person answers. You describe what’s going on. We give you a ballpark range and schedule a visit with a real arrival window.
- 2
We inspect and show you the evidence. Wendell or one of his crew gets on the roof, opens the system where needed, and runs the camera. You see the footage. You hear the plain-English verdict. If it doesn’t need doing, we’ll tell you that too.
- 3
You decide on parts. For Olympia Chimney work, we discuss OEM versus quality aftermarket parts. Some fixes benefit from exact Olympia components. Others do fine with proven equivalents from brands we trust, like DuraFlex, HeatShield, or Gelco. The decision is yours, and the price is settled before work begins.
- 4
We do the repair. The crew shows up in uniform, on time, background-checked. The work gets done the same day in most cases.
- 5
We test and walk you through it. Draft check, water test where relevant, and photos of the finished job. You get a written record.
- 6
The 90-Day Done Right Promise kicks in. If something’s not right, one call brings us back at no additional cost. It’s in writing on every job.
What Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Costs in Deer Park
Here are real numbers for the Olympia Chimney repairs we handle most in Deer Park. Your exact price depends on access, the condition of the surrounding materials, and whether parts are in stock.
- Flashing repair or replacement: $180 to $450.
- Chase cover replacement: $350 to $700, depending on size and material gauge.
- Rain cap or spark arrestor replacement: $150 to $400.
- Mortar repointing or tuckpointing: $400 to $1,000, based on how many joints need work.
- Chimney crown rebuild or reseal: $250 to $900.
- Partial chimney rebuild above the roofline: $800 to $1,400 and up, depending on brick type and height.
What moves the price is what we find when we open it up. A simple flashing fix on a one-story ranch off Grand Boulevard is a different job than a rebuild on a two-story colonial near the Deer Park station. You’ll always get the number before we start. And remember, we knock $40 off any repair over $200, and seniors and veterans get 10% off always. Call (631) 214-2108 for a free estimate.
Why Deer Park Homeowners Call Top Hat Chimney for Olympia Chimney Work
Plenty of outfits will clean a chimney. Fewer actually understand the differences between one brand’s components and another’s. Wendell Pike has been climbing onto Long Island rooftops since 1999, and along the way he’s done inspections on homes right off Commack Road more times than he can count. We know which Olympia Chimney systems hold up well in Deer Park weather and which ones show their age after a few winters.
Every job gets the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. The phone is answered by a live person around the clock, and it may well be Wendell himself at 2 a.m. when you call about water coming through the ceiling. We publish our address and license number. We stand behind the work because we run into you again on Saturday. That’s the whole point of being locally owned. No franchise manager from another state is coming to fix a mistake. Wendell is.
When an Olympia Chimney repair calls for a liner or a component from a different trusted brand, we work with DuraFlex, HeatShield, and Gelco too. One crew, straight answers, no runaround.
FAQs
It depends on the specific repair and the original installation terms. Many Olympia Chimney warranties cover defects in materials, not damage from weather, water intrusion, or installation issues. As an independent Olympia Chimney service provider, we document every repair with photos and notes, and we’ll tell you before starting if a fix could affect any remaining warranty coverage. Call (631) 214-2108 and we’ll walk through it with you.
Both. For components still under warranty or where exact fit matters, we use OEM Olympia Chimney parts. For other repairs, quality aftermarket parts from DuraFlex, HeatShield, or Gelco often do the job just as well at a lower price. You’ll know which option is in play and what it costs before we order anything.
Most repairs are completed the same day we’re on site, as long as parts are on the truck or available locally. More involved work, like a partial rebuild, might take two to three days. You’ll get a clear timeline before we start, and a real arrival window, not a four-hour guess. Call (631) 214-2108 to schedule.
If the damage is confined to flashing, crowns, joints, or caps, repair is almost always the right call and the far cheaper one. If the chase is rotted through or the flue liner is compromised, replacement makes more sense. Our camera inspection shows you exactly what we’re seeing. If it doesn’t need replacing, we’ll tell you that too. No upsell.
Once a year, burn or no burn. Chimneys break in the off-season too. Deer Park’s freeze-thaw cycles are hard on masonry and metal alike, and a small crack in a crown or chase cover becomes a big repair by spring. Annual inspection catches it while it’s cheap.
