Chase cover work on East Park roofs
Measuring over the finished siding
The size that matters is the outside of the chase at the top, taken over the siding, stucco or trim. Framing dimensions are smaller by the thickness of every layer added later. A cover built to framing size sits inside the finish rather than lapping over it, and water runs into the joint. We measure each side at the top of your East Park chase, note where trim boards stand proud and size the skirt to clear the thickest point with room to fasten.
Rust and water marks inside the fireplace
On many prefabricated fireplaces, rain that gets past the chase top ends up inside the unit. Rust flakes on the firebox floor, water marks on the refractory panels or a damp smell after storms are clues worth mentioning when you call. None of them proves the cover is at fault, since a damaged cap or pipe joint can do the same. The inspection starts at the top, and our written findings tie each symptom to the part we believe is responsible.
Working safely at the top of the chase
Chase covers are replaced at the roofline, often high on a two-story wall. Our crew brings the ladders and safety equipment the roof calls for and works from the roof surface beside the chase. Nobody stands on the new cover, which would dent the sheet and flatten its slope. Please do not climb up to measure it yourself. A description from the ground is all we need to plan the visit to your East Park home. If a storm or wet roof makes the work unsafe on the scheduled day, we move the date and tell you why.
Covers on chases with vinyl siding
Vinyl siding expands and contracts with temperature more than wood, stucco or fiber cement, and it is installed to move. A skirt pinned tight against vinyl can restrict that movement and distort the panels. We fasten through the skirt into solid framing at the corners and sides and leave the siding free to move. If the top course of siding is damaged, we note it for separate repair. On a chase that was re-sided in vinyl over older siding, the added thickness also changes the skirt size we order.

Is the chase cover work guaranteed?
Every chase cover we fit comes with our workmanship warranty and our 100% satisfaction guarantee, and finished work that is not right brings us back to fix it.
Can the rust stains on my siding be cleaned?
They can often be lightened, and that work is separate from replacing the cover. We list stain cleaning or touch-up paint on its own line so you can decide whether to include it.
