Request an inspection ↗Understanding the service
Factory-built fireplaces are often enclosed by a framed chase. The metal cover at the top must shed water without ponding, remain rigid in wind and seal correctly around every pipe. Flat, thin or poorly fitted covers commonly rust through and send water into the chase where damage can remain hidden.
What to look for
Signs a chase cover is failing
- Rust streaks run down the chase siding
- The cover visibly sags or holds standing water
- Collars or storm collars are loose and heavily sealed
- Water enters the fireplace or chase during rain
- Metal rattles, lifts or flexes in wind
A complete written scope
- Exact chase dimensions and pipe offset measurements
- Metal, gauge, finish, overhang and edge selection
- Custom fabrication for all penetrations
- Removal and disposal of the existing cover when included
- Installation with compatible fasteners, collars and sealants
Our service process
- Measure the chase and every termination from fixed reference points
- Confirm metal, finish, collar and drainage details
- Fabricate the cover to the approved dimensions
- Remove the failed cover and inspect the accessible chase top
- Install, secure and document the completed assembly
From selection to final review
A clear project path, with expectations in writing.
Inspection & documentation
We inspect accessible conditions, take measurements and document the parts of the system that shape your repair or installation options.
System options & written scope
You receive practical material and system choices, a defined scope of work and clear exclusions where hidden conditions may exist.
Contract, deposit & scheduling
Once you select your system:
- We sign a clear, written contract
- A 30% deposit is collected
- We schedule your project
Installation & progress documentation
We protect the work area, install the approved scope and document important conditions and completed details as the project moves forward.
Cleanup & final inspection
We clean the property thoroughly. Most exterior construction sites are approximately 90-99% clean the same day. For qualifying multi-day masonry and exterior projects, our next-day closeout can include:
- A final inspection
- An additional magnetic sweep
- Final drone photos when conditions and location allow
- A complete quality-control review
Exact payment milestones, closeout steps and return visits are stated in the written contract for the selected project.
Service questions
Details worth understanding.
Final specifications depend on the inspected conditions, appliance listing, selected manufacturer and applicable local requirements.
Why should a chase cover have a cross-break?+
The slight raised geometry helps move water toward the edges instead of allowing it to sit in the center. It also adds rigidity to a broad sheet of metal.
Can a rusted cover be coated instead of replaced?+
Surface coating may extend the life of a stable cover, but perforation, deep corrosion, failed seams or ponding geometry normally justify replacement.
