What goes into a new chase top in Holden Heights
A pitched or hipped top for wider chases
Wide chases, and chases with two pipes, can outgrow simple creases. A fabricated pitch, sometimes built as a shallow hip, gives the sheet a true slope from the collar out to each side. The Majestic installation manual we work from pitches the chase top downward, away from the pipe opening, by a quarter inch per foot or more. The shape we recommend follows the size of your chase, the number of openings and the instructions for the installed system.
Skirt depth and the drip edge
The skirt is the cover's bent-down edge that wraps over the top of each chase wall. It must reach past the top edge of the siding so wind-driven rain cannot blow up under it. At the bottom, a drip edge kicks outward so water falls clear instead of running back along the metal into the wall. Fireplace manuals list a turndown and drip edge as required parts of a chase top, and we set the skirt depth after seeing the wall finish at the top of your chase.
Painting a new cover to match the house
Some owners want the chase top to match the roof or trim color. Stainless and copper are usually left unpainted. Galvanized steel can be painted, but zinc needs the right primer or the paint may peel. If color matters to you, tell us early. We explain which metals take paint well, whether a factory-coated sheet is available and how painting affects the schedule. Paint on the skirt should stop short of the collar, where heat from the pipe can blister it.
Replacing the cap and cover at the same visit
When both the chase cover and the termination cap are rusted through, replacing them together saves a second trip to the roof. The cap must still be the one listed for your chimney model, which may mean ordering it through the manufacturer's parts network. We confirm availability before scheduling, so the new cover is not installed with an old, failing cap left waiting on top of it. Model-specific caps can take longer to arrive than the cover itself.

Chase cover questions from Holden Heights
Can a rusted chase cover be patched?
A small, isolated defect can sometimes be repaired. A cover rusted through in several places keeps failing around each patch, so we explain which option fits your cover after seeing 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.
