We’ll book an inspection, run the camera, and show you what we found before we quote a dollar.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia 316Ti rigid liners: weld seam separation at the first elbow. These stainless liners are solid when installed correctly, but we regularly find the seam at the smoke chamber transition pulling apart on 12-18 year old installations in Manassas. The house settles, the clay tile shifts, and the rigid liner takes the stress exactly where it bends. We sleeve the joint with a high-temp connector and re-secure the liner. No full replacement needed in most cases.
• Olympia cast-in-place crown caps: freeze-thaw cracking. Manassas winters cycle through freeze and thaw more than homeowners expect, and a cast crown with no expansion joint will crack within four or five seasons. We see Olympia crowns with hairline fractures that let water into the brick below. The repair is a reinforced full crown rebuild with a proper drip edge; caulk over the crack is a temporary bandage, not a fix.
• Olympia spark arrestor screens: rust-through at the mesh edge. The screen material on older Olympia caps corrodes where it meets the cap frame, and once the mesh opens up, embers and birds both get through. We stock direct-fit Olympia replacement screens and, where the frame is compromised, we’ll install a matched Stainless cap from our Famco or Copperfield inventory with the same footprint.
• Olympia clay flue tiles: spalling from decades of wet heat. In Manassas, we pull Olympia tiles from 1960s-1980s chimneys that have started to flake and crumble. That’s spalling, and it means the tile is shedding material into your flue. We do a camera scan to map the damage, then either parge the surface with a HeatShield resurfacing system or remove and replace the broken tiles outright. The camera tells us which one is realistic.
• Olympia top-mount dampers: cable failure at the lid pivot. When the cable stretches or the pivot corrodes, the lid stops sealing. You feel it as a draft and you smell it as a cold fireplace. We replace the cable and bushing on repairs, and when the lid itself is warped, we swap in a new top-mount damper that fits the existing Olympia flue collar. No masonry work needed.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

1. 1
   The call. A live person answers at (571) 946-2300. You describe the problem. We ask specific questions: what kind of cap, when you first noticed the leak or draft, whether anyone’s been in the chimney before. We book the inspection, not a repair.
2. 2
   Camera down the flue. The tech runs an NFPA 211 Level 2 camera scan and photographs every transition, every tile, every seam. You see the images. We do not ask you to take our word for anything.
3. 3
   The written price. Corrine Halstead reviews the camera footage and the tech’s field notes before you see a dollar figure. You get a written scope, a line-item price, and a written warranty on any repair we recommend. No verbal estimates. No “we’ll see when we get in there.” Clause 1 of the Haven Standard: have it in writing.
4. 4
   The repair. For Olympia jobs, we source the OEM part where it matters for fit and warranty, and quality aftermarket from DuraFlex, HeatShield, or Gelco where it gives you better value without cutting corners. We tell you which and why before ordering.
5. 5
   The proof. After the work, the camera goes back down. We photograph the repair, the surrounding area, and the part in place. You get a documented photo record on completion. Every job since 2009, no exceptions.
6. 6
   The follow-through. If it’s not done right, the 365-Day Done Right Promise says we make it right. You also get a text from our office with your tech’s name and the time they’ll arrive.
