This page is for West Chester homeowners who bought an Olympia Chimney liner, cap, or chase cover and now need someone who knows how these products age in Chester County’s freeze-thaw climate. Corrine Halstead and our crew have worked on hundreds of Olympia Chimney installations across the borough, from the 1920s colonials near Everhart Park to newer builds in the West Goshen Township fringe where chase covers seem to fail faster than the manufacturer literature suggests.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia 316Ti flexible liner seam separation. The 316Ti series uses a rolled-lock seam that can work open where the flue makes its offset turn, especially in West Chester’s older masonry where the smoke chamber was parged with inferior mortar. We camera-locate the separation, then sleeve with an Olympia-compatible DuraFlex liner or weld-patch the seam depending on length of damage and your budget.
• Olympia Gelco-style chase cover corner rust-through. The Gelco-branded chase covers sold through Olympia’s distribution network carry a cross-break design that pools water at the corners. In West Chester, where nor’easters drive rain sideways into chase framing, we’ve replaced dozens of these with custom-fabricated Copperfield chase covers that shed water properly. We document the rot beneath before quoting replacement.
• Olympia Wind Directional rain cap hinge fatigue. The stamped-steel hinge on Olympia’s Wind Directional cap fatigues after five to seven seasons of Chester County wind cycling. The cap hangs crooked, admits water, and sometimes drops into the flue. We stock the OEM hinge assembly but often recommend upgrading to a Famco cast-aluminum equivalent that costs less and outlasts the original.
• Olympia HeatShield-compatible smoke chamber parging failure. When an Olympia liner is paired with a HeatShield smoke chamber seal, the interface point where ceramic meets stainless can gap during West Chester’s hard freezes. We see this in homes north of Marshallton where the chimney runs on an exterior wall. Our fix: remove the failed interface, re-parge with HeatShield Cerfractory Foam, and reinstall the liner with an expansion collar.
• Olympia top-sealing damper cable corrosion. The galvanized cable on Olympia’s top-sealing dampers corrodes where it exits the flue tile, particularly when the chimney lacks a proper rain cap. The damper sticks half-open, bleeding heat and inviting downdrafts. We replace with a stainless cable and pulley assembly, and we always include a new cap in the quote - replacing the cable without fixing the water source is a repair that fails in two seasons.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers. We ask for the Olympia Chimney model or series if you know it, then book a Level 2 camera inspection under NFPA 211.
2. 2
   Corrine or a named tech arrives. Background-checked, uniformed, license number visible. You get a text when we’re ten minutes out.
3. 3
   Camera scan and documentation. We run the camera the full length of the Olympia liner or examine the cap, crown, or chase cover. Photos and video are saved to your job record - Clause 4 of the Haven Standard requires this, and we’ve done it on every visit since 2009.
4. 4
   Written price, written scope, written warranty. Before any tool touches your chimney, you receive a single-page quote with line-item pricing. No “call the office for numbers.” No verbal estimates that shift.
5. 5
   Repair with OEM or quality aftermarket parts. We source Olympia-compatible materials through our Haven buying network - DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Famco, or Copperfield as the job demands. We explain when OEM matters for warranty and when aftermarket performs equal or better.
6. 6
   Post-repair camera verification and cleanup. We camera-verify the repair, provide your documented photo record, and leave the work area cleaner than we found it. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies from this moment.
