How Our Pros Repair Chimney Chases in Thonotosassa
Same-day service is available when the schedule allows, and the chase inspection is free.
Replacing rotted studs and plates
Rotten studs, top plates and blocking are cut back to solid wood and replaced or sistered with new lumber sized to match. The new framing is fastened to carry the chase walls and the cover above them, and it stays outside the clearance the chimney's manual sets around the pipe.
Where treated lumber is used, section R317.3 of the Florida residential code lists the fastener types for it, namely hot-dipped zinc-coated galvanized steel, stainless steel, silicon bronze or copper. Our pros match every nail, screw and connector to the lumber it holds, following hardware guidance that also warns against mixing galvanized fasteners with stainless connectors.
Siding that matches the house and sheds water
Chase siding is replaced to match the house where it can be, whether lap siding, panel siding, fiber cement or stucco. Each product has its own installation instructions for clearance at the roof line, joint treatment and fastening, and siding makers treat those details as part of keeping the wall dry.
Our pros follow the instructions for the product going on your chase, seal cut ends where the product calls for it and keep the bottom edge clear of the roofing so it cannot wick water. You see the siding options and an upfront price for each before work starts in Thonotosassa.
Chase repair before listing or buying a home
Soft siding and stains on a chase are easy for a buyer or a home inspector to notice. Repairing the chase before listing takes a question out of the sale, and a buyer who knows the chase condition can plan the first repairs with a written estimate in hand.
Our team gives a free written estimate that separates chase framing, siding, flashing and cover work, so each item can be discussed on its own. The work comes with our workmanship warranty and our 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Matching new framing to the old
Old chase framing may use lumber sizes or stud spacing that differ from what is sold today. New studs are sized and shimmed so the sheathing lies flat and the siding lines up with the rest of the chase, and blocking is added where siding joints need solid backing.
Our pros take those measurements when the wall is open and cut new framing to fit, so the repaired face does not bulge or dip. Details like that are what make a repair disappear once it is painted.
