How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney 316Ti stainless liners: We see these separating at the collar joints in Ashburn’s older Brambleton colonials, especially where the flue gas condenses in shoulder seasons. The 316Ti alloy handles standard wood-burning duty well, but the rolled seam at the flex-to-rigid transition can work loose after 15-20 years of thermal cycling. We reseat with OEM-compatible expansion couplings and back the joint with HeatShield refractory where the thimble shows heat loss.
• Olympia Chimney Pro-Form masonry crowns: These pre-formed concrete crowns shed water adequately when new, but the factory drip edge is shallow and Ashburn’s hard spring rains find the weak spot. Water works behind the crown, freezes by January, and pops the crown off in pieces. We remove the damaged Pro-Form unit, pour a new cast-in-place crown with proper 2-inch overhang and drip kerf, and seal with Gelco crown sealant - not a surface coating, but a breathable membrane that moves with the masonry.
• Olympia Chimney Gelco cap installations on oversized flues: The stock Gelco cap sizes don’t always cover the full flue opening on Ashburn’s 1980s-era Rumford-style fireplaces, leaving a gap that funnels water directly onto the smoke shelf. We measure the actual flue mouth and fabricate a custom Gelco cap with extended skirt and stainless mesh - same brand, properly fitted, so the warranty stays intact and the water stays out.
• Olympia Chimney DuraFlex relining on exterior chimneys: DuraFlex is excellent product, but exterior chimneys in Ashburn’s wind-exposed neighborhoods - think the hills near Belmont Ridge Road - run colder and collect more creosote. The flex liner itself doesn’t fail; the surrounding insulation settles, creating a cold channel that accelerates corrosion at the cleanout tee. We pull and re-insulate with proper DuraFlex ProMix packing, or switch to a rigid DuraFlex liner where the flue run is straight enough to justify it.
• Olympia Chimney parging in pre-fab fireboxes: The factory refractory parging in Olympia’s zero-clearance units cracks at the corner seams after repeated over-firing, which is common in Ashburn where homeowners burn seasoned oak hot and fast. We don’t slop generic refractory over the crack; we rake out to sound material, bridge with HeatShield Cerfractory foam, and finish to factory thickness so the unit retains its UL listing and drafts correctly.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule: A live person answers, asks what you’re seeing, and books a Level-2 camera inspection. We don’t guess over the phone.
2. 2
   Camera inspection and documentation: Our technician runs a 360-degree camera the full flue length, photographs every defect, and explains what you’re seeing in plain English. You get the photos. The flue doesn’t lie - and neither do we.
3. 3
   Parts decision: If your repair needs Olympia Chimney components, we source OEM or direct-fit aftermarket from our Copperfield and Famco supply chain. We tell you which we’re using and why, with no markup games.
4. 4
   Upfront pricing and approval: You get one number. That’s the number on the invoice. We don’t start until you approve.
5. 5
   The repair and live test: Technician completes the work, runs a post-repair camera pass or smoke test, and walks you through what was done.
6. 6
   Written guarantee and cleanup: We leave the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing, vacuum the work area, and haul away debris. Most jobs finish in four to six hours.
