Custom Copper Raincaps in Boston

Posted by Alexandra Storrs on Wednesday, August 11, 2010, In : Boston South End Project 

This is one of the copper raincaps we installed in Boston's South End.  We did not have time to take pictures of the lining aspect of this job.  Dana & Bruce spent over 10 hours removing the old deteriorated liner & installing the new one.  The only masonry part of this job is the new crown to which the cap is adhered.  To see the liner prior to installation http://www.dmstorrschimney.com/our-soot-stories/liner-custom-copper-raincaps-in-boston
