Below is a few more examples of custom copper chimney caps I've made; placing primary focus on a strong design w/as few seams as possible. There's also links to see more photos and details w/price breakdown of the parts used for most projects.

This copper chimney cap projects is for Brad and Pam Stone in Summit, New Jersey. It was made for their outdoor fireplace. He may have me build some chimney caps for his house as well that match this design. The inside of the base is 31.25" both ways.

I made this to resemble the Tuscan style I made to Mr. Gross, yet it will have no eave past the base and it has a deeper set stainless steel screen in the archway than I had made in the past. It has solid oak boards inside the base skirt.

Cost for this project: $2,503.20 w/crate & shipping

This copper chimney cap projects is for Joe and Mary McLaughlin in Staten Island, New York. They had just a metal chimney pipe sticking up out of the roof. He had a contractor build a large rectangular wood box around it and cover it with a thin layer of brick. The inside diameter of the base needed to be 61.5" x 26.5".

To cover this new traditional looking chimney we worked with them for 3 months exchanging over 70 e-mails with several photos and diagrams to finalize this design, that best suited their needs and desires for this custom chimney cap to fit with their home.

This copper chimney cap projects is for Gary and Susan Reeves in Springfield, Illinois. They had their chimney rebuilt and covered with natural stone. The inside base: 59.75" x 30.25".

They would have loved to get a fancier chimney cap, like our arched Tuscan style, but their funds were limited. They requested a quote for a simple low profile chimney cap like I made for LEA Construction. I kept in mind what style they really wanted and made them this simplified cross blend between those two styles.

This copper chimney projects was for a client named Jack and Lynn Willard in Grass Valley, California. We had just made them an 8 sided turret roof cap with a Morgana style finial seen here in the fore ground, and I noticed in some photos he sent us that there was bricks dislodged from his chimney. This was an unexpected repair and he did not know what to do for a lasting solution. After careful negotiations we came up with this alternative solution to his problem.

I built the whole unit in 2 separate parts for easier installation. This is also important for vertical alignment of the flue pipe incase the base does not set on the roof perfectly level once installed. Then the flue was riveted to the base. The inside base: 24" x 24".

Here is the completed assembled unit mounted on his roof. He reports the installation went smoother than he could have imagined, aside from trying to use a very dull drill bit (LOL). You can read his full uncensored report, along with many more photos on the web page we made for this project:

Cost for the project: $1,300 for the 65# 32oz copper flange and base
+ $1,340 for the 67# octagonal flue pipe and chimney cap
+ $450 for the crate +$175 for shipping residential w/lift-gate service
$3,265 Total delivered to California

This copper chimney projects was built for our client named Gina Matury who made this diagram for Lake Prairie Homes, LLC at 9308 Chestnut Lane in Munster, IN  46321.  You can phone her at (219) 614-5144. Most of the metal I work with is 20oz copper sheet metal, but the base chamber here is made from a 4' x 8' sheet of a thicker 32oz copper for more strength to hold the flue pipe sturdy in high wind situations.

I built this in 2 separate parts for easier installation. This is also important for vertical alignment of the flue pipe incase the base does not set on the roof perfectly level once installed. Then they will screw or rivet them together.  The inside base: 20" x 20".

It was my job to recreate her design into a full size 3 dimensional work of art. I think I did a pretty good job here. The 16 gauge stainless steel screen also adds to the strength after it is riveted tightly in place behind the corner columns.

Cost for the project: $1110 for the 32oz copper flange and square base
+ $1,231.60 for the octagonal flue pipe and chimney cap
+ $450 for the crate +$325 for shipping residential w/lift-gate service
$3,116.60 Total delivered to Indiana
