How Our Pros Repair Chimney Chases in East Lake-Orient Park
Local and family-owned, our team repairs chimney chases in East Lake-Orient Park with written prices before work starts.
Firestops and shields inside the chase
Where a factory-built chimney passes through a floor or ceiling level inside the chase, its manual calls for firestop spacers, and some systems also call for an attic insulation shield where the pipe passes into an attic. These parts keep framing and insulation away from the pipe, and they are easy to damage or leave out when a chase is rebuilt too quickly.
When our pros open a chase, they check that every firestop and shield the manual lists is present and seated, and they note any that are missing before the wall is closed. You get a written list of what was found, so the finished chase is sound inside as well as out.
How rain finds its way into a chase
Water has a handful of ways into a wood chase. A rusted or flat cover lets it pool and drip through seams. Siding joints and corner trim open as caulk ages. The junction with the roof depends on step flashing with the siding lapped over it. And a storm collar that has lost its seal lets water run down the outside of the pipe.
Rot shows up where the water ends, which can be a long way from where it entered. Our pros trace the path from the top down before quoting, because replacing rotten wood without closing the entry point only schedules the same repair again. The estimate names each entry point and the fix for it.
Loose siding, falling parts and a safe wait
A chase that has started to come apart can drop siding, trim or a loose cover in the next strong wind. Keep people, cars and pets clear of the area below it, and do not climb up to pull pieces off. If a section is hanging, our team can secure it temporarily until the repair is scheduled.
Same-day service is available when the schedule allows, and our 24/7 emergency line is there when storm damage cannot wait. The permanent repair follows once the free inspection has mapped the damage.
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.
