Choosing galvanized or stainless steel
On galvanized steel, a zinc coating is what holds rust off. The American Galvanizers Association explains that humidity, rainfall and salt in the air all affect how quickly that zinc is used up. Stainless steel does not rely on a coating in the same way, and homeowners often ask about it as an upgrade.
Either metal can make a sound cover when the slope, collar and drip edge are right, and neither makes up for a poor shape. We price both options for your chase, explain how each will look from the street and let you choose. The difference is written on the estimate so the decision stays yours.
What happens on chase cover replacement day
On installation day, our team protects the roof around the chase, removes the old cover and clears old sealant and fasteners. The top of the chase is checked, the new cover is set and fastened through its skirt, and the storm collar and cap go back on.
Before leaving, we check the pitch, the fit on every side and the seal at the storm collar, and haul the old cover away. You get a plain summary of what was done, and if anything unexpected turned up while the top was open, you hear about it before any extra work.
Looking after a new chase cover
Once the new cover is in place, a look from the ground after heavy storms is usually enough. Watch for a cover that has shifted, new rust marks on the siding or water where it did not appear before. Keeping branches trimmed back from the chase stops leaves piling up on the cover.
Do not climb up to adjust the cover or the storm collar. If something looks wrong, call and describe it. NFPA safety guidance recommends having chimneys inspected every year, and the chase top is part of that check.
Keeping records of the chase cover work
Keep the estimate and the completion summary for the chase cover with the fireplace manual if you have it. The metal, the collar arrangement and the date of replacement help anyone who works on the chimney later, and they answer questions that come up when the home is sold.
If the fireplace label or manual is missing, keep the model details we record during the visit. Having the chimney system identified makes the next repair simpler and helps avoid mismatched parts on the pipe or cap.
