Chase Cover Replacement in Scottsdale

Many Scottsdale homes built from the 1970s through the 2000s have factory-built fireplaces inside a framed chimney, called a chase. The chase is capped with a sheet-metal cover. Builders often used flat galvanized covers that hold water, rust, and then leak into the chase and down to the firebox.

We replace them with a custom-measured stainless steel cover with sloped sides and a drip edge, so water runs off instead of sitting on top. A new storm collar and cap go on with it.

Signs you need this

• Rust stains on the stucco below the chimney top
• Water or rust inside the firebox
• Cover sagging in the middle or pooling water
• Rust holes you can see from the ground
• Leak that only shows up in heavy rain
