The turndown and drip edge along the sides
The edges of a chase cover turn down over the outside of the chase. That skirt, finished with a drip edge, carries rain past the top of the siding so it falls clear instead of running into the joint. The manufacturer's manual we follow for one common system names the turndown and drip edge as part of the chase top.
A skirt that is too short, bent inward or pulled away from the chase leaves the joint open. We measure for a turndown that sits snugly on every side and fasten through the skirt, which keeps screw holes out of the flat surface that sheds the water.
Coordinating chase cover work with roofers and siding crews
If a new roof or new siding is planned, the chase cover belongs in the same sequence. The flashing where the chase meets the roof, the siding on the chase and the cover all overlap, and the order of work affects how each junction is finished.
Let us know which other trades are booked at the house, and on what dates. We can replace the cover before the roofers arrive, work alongside them or follow them, and the estimate states which trade is responsible for each junction. That avoids gaps nobody owns.
How the new chase cover will look from the street
On some homes the chase top can be seen from the street or the yard. A bright new cover, a different metal or a taller collar changes how the top of the chimney looks, and it is worth knowing what to expect before the cover is ordered.
We describe the finish of each metal option and whether the storm collar and cap will show above it. If appearance matters to you, say so at the inspection, and we will account for it along with the details that keep water out.
What our free chase inspection includes
The free inspection covers the parts that keep water out at the top of the chase. That means the cover, its seams and fasteners, the collar, the storm collar, the cap and the edge where the cover meets the siding. We also look at the fireplace below for signs of water.
You get a plain explanation of what is sound and what is failing, and a written price for the work we recommend. The inspection costs nothing and commits you to nothing, and if you approve the work within 72 hours of it, you save 10%.
On any service we offer
A new chase cover is 10% off when ordered within 72 hours of the inspection.
