This video is a quick and easy repair of a chimney top. They are prone to deterioration in northern climates because of repeated freeze thaw cycles. It is a common item that needs repair. The beginning stages of damage are not easily visible from the ground. Out of fire, out of mind. Left un-repaired, water can gain entry into the rest of the chimney, creating greater damage and requiring a more extensive and expensive repair. This repair will buy you many extra years of chimney life.
I used silicone caulk and a masonry paint.
