Rebuilding a Chimney Chase Layer by Layer
A free chase inspection comes first, and a written record of the repair comes at the end.
When a full chase rebuild is the better repair
A chase rebuild makes sense when rot runs through several walls, the corner posts or top plates have failed, or the chase has started to lean. The old enclosure comes down to the roof deck, the pipe is protected in place, and new framing, sheathing, barrier, flashing and siding go up around it.
A rebuild is also a chance to correct whatever caused the failure, from a cover that holds water to missing flashing, so the new chase starts dry. Our specialists explain why a rebuild suits your chase, or why it does not, before you commit to anything.
Protecting the roof and pipe during chase work
Chase repair happens on a roof, around a chimney system that has to stay intact. Our team sets up safe access, protects the shingles around the work area and leaves the pipe, its fittings and its firestops undisturbed unless they are part of the job. Debris comes down in a controlled way instead of sliding across the roof.
The fireplace stays out of use while the chase is open, and our pros tell you when it can be used again. Once the walls are closed, they check the flashing, the cover and the pipe top one more time before packing up.
What to tell our pros when you call about a chase
A few details help plan the visit. Tell us when you first saw the damage, whether water shows up inside after storms, whether the fireplace burns wood or gas and roughly how old the chase cover is if you know. Earlier patches, paint jobs or roof work around the chase are useful too, because they can hide or explain what we find.
You do not need to measure anything or climb up to look. Our local, family-owned team handles that during the free inspection and walks you through the findings, with upfront pricing for every line of the repair.
Joints, trim edges and the sealant that closes them
Every butt joint, corner and trim edge on a chase is a place water can enter. The right sealant depends on the siding product and the joint, and it works only on clean, dry surfaces with room to move.
Our pros seal new work to the product's instructions and check the old joints on the faces that were not repaired, so the chase is closed on every side when the job is done.
