Chase repair facts for Keene's Pointe homes
Rot along the top plate under the cover
The top plate is the horizontal framing at the very top of the chase walls. The metal cover rests on it, and it is the first wood to get wet when the cover leaks or rain blows past the edge. Rot often starts at the corners, where end grain soaks up water.
A soft top plate lets the cover sag, which holds more water and speeds up the rot. It can also pull fasteners loose from the siding just below it.
We check the top plate by hand whenever the cover is off. If it is soft, the plate and the upper ends of the studs are replaced before any cover goes back on. The cover shows up as its own line, so you can tell which job stops the leak and which one repairs the wood it already reached.
Tree limbs rubbing against the chase
A limb that brushes a chase in the wind scrapes paint, loosens siding and can knock the cover out of line. Leaves and needles pile up on the roof behind it and hold water at the base. Shade from a tree also keeps one face of the chase damp longer after rain.
Trimming limbs back from the chase and the roof is one of the simplest ways to protect a repair. It also cuts down the leaves and needles that pile up behind the chase and the animals that use limbs as a bridge to the roof.
During the inspection, our technicians note any limbs that reach the chase and any damage they have done. We do not cut trees, but your Keene's Pointe estimate says which branches should come back before or after the repair, so your tree service knows what to do.
What the free chase inspection covers
Our free inspection is a real look at the chase, not a sales stop. A technician walks the house, gets on the roof where it is safe, probes the siding and base, checks the flashing and the top, and looks at the attic and fireplace side where there is access.
You get the findings in plain language and a written estimate that lists each layer, the cover and any roofing work separately. There is no charge for the inspection and no pressure to book. If the chase is sound, we tell you that too. We also note the chimney maker and model from the label, so the estimate follows the right instructions.
Homeowners in Keene's Pointe can ask for the free inspection whether the chase shows a clear problem or only raises a question. If you are not home for the roof part, the findings come to you with the written estimate.
Workmanship warranty and a 100% satisfaction guarantee
Our workmanship warranty applies to chase repair, and so does our 100% satisfaction guarantee. The warranty covers the work we did, and the written estimate, with any approved changes, names that work layer by layer.
Being specific matters on a chase, because most of the work ends up hidden. The new wood, the barrier and flashing laps and the finish we installed are named in writing, so there is no question later about what the warranty covers. Parts made by the chimney maker come with whatever terms the maker offers, and work done by your roofer is the roofer's to stand behind.
If anything about the repair does not look or perform the way you expected, call us and tell us what you see. That promise is the same for every chase we repair in Keene's Pointe, from a single corner to a full rebuild.

Chase repair questions we hear
Do I need a new cover on top when the chase is repaired?
Only if the cover has failed or no longer fits the repaired top. When it has, the cover goes on its own estimate line and is installed after the top framing is sound. If the cover is in good shape, we take it off carefully and put it back.
Do you charge to look at my chase?
No. The inspection and the written estimate are free, with no obligation to book the repair. If the chase only needs small fixes, we tell you that too.
