Chimney chase cover work in Lauderdale Lakes
Listed chase top flashing with a made-to-measure cover
Some chimney makers supply a chase top flashing as part of the listed system. Where the chase is larger than that part, the instructions show it fixed to a bigger field-made cover. Screws or rivets hold it, and a sealant that stays flexible closes the joint.
That arrangement combines a listed piece at the pipe with a cover made to fit the box. We check whether your chimney uses one and whether it is still sound. If it is, the new cover can be built around it. If it is not, we look for the maker's current part before fabricating anything.
Checking the chase top after strong wind
Strong storms can lift a chase cover, tear its screws out or bend its skirt. From the ground, look for a cover that sits unevenly, a skirt edge standing away from the wall, or pieces of metal on the roof or lawn. Keep people clear of anything loose.
Do not climb up to refasten it yourself. Describe what you see, and tell us whether water has reached the inside since the storm. We look at the cover, the storm collar, the cap and the top of the framing. The estimate then separates urgent items from the rest.
What the free inspection covers on a chase
The free inspection for a chase concern looks at the cover, its collar and seams, and the storm collar with its sealant. The cap on the pipe and the siding at the top of the walls are checked too, and so is anything you have noticed indoors.
Some of the chase stays out of sight until the old cover comes off, such as the framing top and the sheathing edge. We separate what we saw from what we suspect. Our findings come with a free written estimate, and what happens next is your call.
What to mention when you call about the chase
You do not need trade terms to book a visit. Tell us what you see from the ground, where you have noticed water or stains inside and roughly when they started. Mention whether the fireplace is used and whether anything else vents through the chase.
If you know the chimney maker or have the installation manual, mention it. Tell us about recent roof work, new siding or storms. Those details shape the visit, what we bring and whether we plan to measure for a new cover on the same trip.

Your chase cover questions, answered
Will a new chase cover fix rotted wood in the chase?
No. The cover stops new water from entering, but rotted sheathing or framing needs its own repair. We note that damage separately, often once the old cover is off, and you decide on it before the chase is closed.
Do you make chase covers to measure?
Yes. Chases vary in size and pipe position, so most covers are made to the measurements we take on the roof. That can mean one visit to measure and another to fit, and we explain the sequence at the start.
Is a same-day chase cover fitting available?
Same-day service is available when the schedule allows, but most covers are made after measuring. We tell you at the inspection whether a same-day fitting is realistic for your chase and how the top is protected meanwhile.
