Chimney Chase Cover Repair & Installation

If you have a prefab chimney, there’s a device at the top of it called a chimney chase cover, or chimney chase top. Chase covers are commonly made of galvanized steel and seal off the entire chimney top minus the flue opening.

Chase tops are excellent devices and perform a very important service. The problem is, because of their galvanized-steel, multi-part construction, they’re prone to rust. Once rust starts on a chase cover, it usually spreads and can lead not only to major cover damage but also to damage within your chimney chase.

Water & Chimneys Don’t Mix

National Chimney Service encourages our customers in Bridgeport CT, Jefferson NJ, Stamford CT, Morristown NJ, and other local communities to schedule chase top and general chimney inspections once a year. This way, you can be alerted to early signs of rusting and interior damage and see to repairs before problems get out of hand.

Incoming water can cause a lot of trouble including:

• Damage to fireboxes, chimney materials as well as home building materials
• Chimney and house fires occurring due to the deteriorated flue materials/liners
• Mold growth that spreads and can put your health and the health of your family at risk

Start with a Licensed Chimney Inspection

The first step you'll need to take toward solving problems with your chimney chase cover or other components within your chimney system is to have a thorough chimney inspection done.

We provide all three levels of chimney inspection as designated by the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) – from basic annual inspections to full-scale inspections of difficult-to-access portions of your chimney structure.

After assessing the situation, we’ll be able to tell you what’s wrong, how it started, how to fix it, and possibly how to prevent it from ever happening again. Chimney inspections can save you thousands of dollars on repair costs for problems that might get overlooked and left unaddressed.
