Chase top know-how for Timber Springs homeowners
Taking the old cover off without damage
Old covers are often held by rusted screws, sealant and sometimes nails through the top. We remove them in a way that protects the siding, trim and chimney pipe, lifting the termination cap off first when it is staying. Old sealant is scraped from the chase top so the new skirt sits flat. The removed metal leaves with us, and the roof and the ground below are cleared before we go. Any fastener holes left in the framing are checked and filled before the new skirt covers them.
Covers with no drip edge
A skirt that ends in a straight cut lets water cling to its edge and run back against the siding. Over time that shows up as streaking, softened trim and eventually water behind the finish. A drip edge that kicks out at the bottom breaks that path. If your current cover lacks one, the replacement will have it, and we note any siding damage the old design has caused on your Timber Springs chase. On stucco, the drip edge also keeps water from soaking the top band of the finish below the cover.
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.
A pipe that leans out of plumb
Sometimes the pipe above the cover leans, pulling the collar and storm collar out of line and opening a gap on one side. The cause may be a loose support, a damaged section or an old impact. We note the lean and check what can be seen of the supports from the top. Straightening or supporting the pipe is chimney system work that must follow the manufacturer's instructions, so it is described and priced separately. A leaning pipe can also rub against the new collar, so the lean is addressed before or with the cover work.

What Timber Springs owners ask about chase covers
Do I need to be home for the work in Timber Springs?
For the inspection, someone should let us look at the fireplace inside. Installation happens on the roof, so it can often be done while you are out, as long as access is arranged.
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.
