Applicant's Description
of Work:
Chimney restoration by Murray Masonry in 01/21 resulted in damage to all 3 'lock top'
dampers/caps. As a result, the 'lock top' dampers were removed and new dampers
were installed. New custom stainless steel chimney caps are now needed since the
'lock top' style previously in place was apparently not intended for an unlined flue. Cap
installation will be performed by John Walsh (the Chimney Company). Mr. Walsh
recommended a stainless steel cap that he recently installed which was approved by
the Historical Commission (photo of proposed cap included with this application).
