Building a chase cover that sheds water
A cover on a stucco-finished chase
If your chase is finished in stucco, the top edge of the stucco often takes the first water from a failing cover. Cracks, dark patches and hollow sounds near the top can be signs that water has been getting behind the finish.
Stucco repair is not part of a cover replacement, but it matters to the result. We look at the top of the stucco when the old cover comes off and tell you what we see. The new cover is then fastened so its skirt protects the stucco edge, and any stucco repair is quoted on its own line.
The open chase is covered at day's end
Between removing the old cover and fitting the new one, the top of the chase is open. Rain and debris can drop straight in. We do not leave it that way overnight.
At the end of each work day, the open top is covered so the chase stays dry until work resumes. If there is a wait for a made-to-measure cover or for framing repair, we explain how the top will be protected in between. That protection is part of how we work, and it is described in the scope of the job.
Comparing chase cover quotes fairly
Chase cover quotes vary for good reasons and bad ones. Some include a storm collar, sealing and cap reuse, while others price only the sheet. Some state stainless with welded seams, others simply metal cover.
Line up the details before the totals: metal, gauge, cross-breaks, drip edge, seams, collar and fastening. Where one quote is silent on a point the other covers, ask the silent one to fill it in, including us. Two proposals are only comparable once they describe the same chase top.
Chase tops on a maintenance visit
On a maintenance visit, we look at the cover for standing water and corrosion and check the fasteners and skirt. The sealant and storm collar around the pipe get a look as well, since joints there tend to open first.
Catching a backed-out screw or a cracked bead of sealant is a small job compared with drying out a soaked chase. We sort what we see into items worth doing soon and items to watch. Any repair beyond a quick adjustment waits for your approval.

What people ask about chase covers
Can a corroded cover be patched rather than replaced?
Small repairs can buy time on a cover that is otherwise sound. A cover with holes, a dished middle or thin metal throughout usually needs replacing, because patches over corrosion tend to trap water. We show you the condition before you choose.
How does the inspection discount apply to a chase cover?
The window opens at your own free inspection and lasts 72 hours. Anything you approve from the estimate inside it, the cover included, is 10% off, and the written price holds if you decide later.
Can one cover handle two pipes coming through the chase?
Yes. Covers can be made with two or more holes, each with its own collar. Each pipe keeps the termination its own instructions call for, so we identify what each pipe serves before the cover is ordered.
