Chimney Cricket Installation in San Diego, CA

Looking for chimney cricket installation in San Diego, California? Quick Chimney handles it with fast scheduling, a clear free quote up front, and tidy drop-cloth work — the way San Diego homeowners expect it done.

A chimney cricket is a small peaked saddle built on the high side of your chimney that splits rainwater and snowmelt and sends it around the masonry instead of letting it pool behind it. Wide chimneys on sloped roofs collect a surprising amount of runoff, and without a cricket that water sits against the brick until it finds a way inside. Quick Chimney builds and flashes crickets that move water where it belongs, available nationwide.

• Custom framing of the cricket to match your roof pitch and chimney width
