How our pros handle chase covers in Alafaya
Why a flat chase top holds rain
A chase cover cut as a flat sheet looks tidy on installation day. Once it flexes, the middle sinks a little and rain collects there instead of running off. Metal that stays wet under a puddle corrodes sooner than metal that dries between storms, and the pinholes tend to open right where the water sat. A replacement top needs shape, creased or pitched, so water leaves every edge and nothing lingers around the pipe collar. On your Alafaya roof, a flat top also collects leaves and grit in that same low spot, which keeps the metal damp even longer.
When the stain shows up inside the house
Water entering through a failed chase top can travel a long way before it shows. It may run down the chimney pipe, soak framing and finally appear as a stain on a ceiling or wall near the fireplace. Because the path is hidden, we inspect the top and the visible chase, then describe the route the evidence suggests. When that evidence points past the cover, for example to wet framing, the added repair becomes its own line on the estimate.
Steep roofs and difficult access
Steep and tile roofs take extra care to reach the chase without damaging the roof itself, and clay or concrete tiles crack under unsupported foot traffic. When your roof needs special access, we say so during the inspection, plan the approach and include any added time in the estimate, so there are no surprises on installation day. Where the roof is too steep to walk safely, the work is planned from ladders and roof brackets set for that pitch.
A local family team on your roof
Orlando Chimney Service is family owned and locally owned. We explain chase top findings in plain words, and the details measured on your roof are the details written into the order for the new cover. When you have a question after the job, you reach the same local business that did the work, which keeps the follow-up simple. Our chase cover pros would rather answer a question twice than leave you unsure what was installed. That also means the people who stand behind the workmanship warranty are the same local business you called.

Chase cover questions from Alafaya
Will you reuse my existing chimney cap?
If the cap is sound and is the one listed for your chimney, yes. We lift it off, replace the cover and reinstall it. If it is damaged, we quote the listed replacement instead.
Why is my new cover sloped instead of flat?
A flat sheet sags and holds rain, which wears the metal out from the middle. Creases or a pitch send water to the edges, and the fireplace manuals we follow call for the top to slope away from the pipe.
