A fireplace nobody uses

A factory-built fireplace that has not been lit in years still sits under a chase cover that takes every rain. If the cover rusts through, water runs down the pipe and the framing whether or not anyone uses the fireplace, and the damage builds out of sight. For a house in Ponte Vedra Beach with an idle unit, the chase top is still worth checking from the yard now and then for streaks and sagging. If it needs replacing, the job is the same as for a fireplace in daily use, built to the model's drawing so the unit stays usable later. A chase cover specialist can be up on your Ponte Vedra Beach roof with a tape measure soon after you phone (904) 920-5495.

How It Works

From tape measure to hose test in Ponte Vedra Beach

Chase and pipe measured
On the free visit we measure the outside of the chase over the siding and read the fireplace model from its plate or manual.
A top made to your chase
The cover is formed with cross-breaks or a pitch, a skirt with a drip edge and a raised collar sized to your pipe.
Old top off, new top fastened
We pull the old cover and check the framing, then fasten the new top through its skirt and clamp a sealed storm collar at the pipe.
Hose test before we leave
Water run over the new top has to leave from every edge. If it puddles anywhere, we reshape it before the job is done.

Where We Work

Tracing coastal rust on Ponte Vedra Beach chases

Rust streaks down the siding show up early on a coastal chase, and in Ponte Vedra Beach they can come from the cover, the storm collar, the cap or one screw. We follow the streak to the part that is rusting before anything is ordered.

When the cover is the source, the new top is pitched stainless in a salt-resistant grade. A sound listed cap stays, and a rusted one is replaced with the fireplace maker's part.

Height above the roof after the top is replaced

The fireplace manuals we work from set how high the termination must stand. The outlet has to clear the spot where the pipe comes through the roof by 3 feet or more, and clear any roof surface inside a 10-foot radius by 2 feet or more.

A new chase cover leaves the termination where it is, so the height does not change with the job. Roofs do change, though: an addition, a new dormer or a raised ridge nearby can leave an old termination too low. While measuring, we check the height against that rule and note any shortfall as a separate matter to resolve.

Testing the new top with water

A new chase top is shaped to drain, and water is the simplest proof. Where the roof gives safe footing, a garden hose is run over the finished top, first at the collar and then outward toward each edge, while we watch where the water goes. It should leave from every side and drop off the drips without standing anywhere.

If an attic hatch or access panel gives a view into the chase, someone watches inside for drips at the same time. Any top that holds water is reshaped on the spot, and the test result goes on the paperwork we leave with you.

Keeping feet and ladders off the chase top

Think of a chase top as a roof over a box, never a place to stand. Sheet metal that is walked on, knelt on or used as a ladder rest dents, and every dent becomes a small basin that holds water after the next rain. Anyone servicing the chimney should work from the roof beside the chase or from a ladder against the chase framing, with padding under the ladder feet where they touch the siding.

If other trades work on your roof, such as a roofer or a satellite installer, it is worth asking them to stay off the chase top as well. A dent found later is noted at the next visit.

FAQ

Chase cover questions from Ponte Vedra Beach

Do you replace chase covers in Ponte Vedra Beach?

We do. Tell us what you see on the chase top, such as rust, a puddle or a lifted edge, and we measure your Ponte Vedra Beach chase on the first visit.

What metal do you recommend for a chase top?

It depends on the size of the chase and the exposure. Our starting point is stainless steel in a heavier gauge than the minimum, and the estimate names the grade and gauge.
