Soft siding near the top of the chase
Does the siding near the top of the chase feel soft, bulge or show dark stains? Water from a failing cover has been soaking the framing and sheathing behind it.
How far that damage goes decides the job, since a new cover on rotten framing won't be secure. Our pros replace the cover and tell you what the framing and siding need, with each part priced and the right trade named on the quote. Catching it early keeps a small repair from becoming a rebuilt chase. Ask our specialists about the soft siding in Newberry at (352) 675-6366.
Newberry is home to Dudley Farm Historic State Park. From the Gainesville reference point, Newberry is about 16 miles away in a direct line.

Local Conditions
Tall chases and pipe height
If the chase on your home in Newberry was framed tall for looks, the chimney pipe inside still has to rise above the cover and the roof by the maker's rules. Our pros check the pipe height and its listed cap whenever they replace a cover. If the pipe is short, the extension has to come from the chimney maker, and your quote says who fits it.

Covers for chases with several pipes
Two chimney pipes, or a pipe and a vent for another appliance, can share one chase. The cover needs a separate collar for each, and each termination needs room around it.
Where several terminations share a chase, the permitted separation and relative heights need checking for those systems. Their arrangement cannot be selected from another model's drawing. The replacement cover must accommodate the approved layout without obstructing required openings.
Our specialists measure every pipe's position, check the spacing and heights against the maker's guidance, and have the cover made with collars to match. If spacing is off, they'll explain the options. The spacing goes on the quote.
Rot in the chase framing
Years of water coming through a failing cover soak the top plates, studs and sheathing of the chase. Soft wood near the top, bulging siding and dark stains running down the chase are the signs.
A new cover fastened into rotten wood won't hold, and rot keeps spreading if the wet wood is left in place. Our specialists probe the framing at the top of the chase and look inside where they can reach.
Rotten framing and sheathing are priced as their own items, and the quote names who handles carpentry and siding if it's beyond the chimney work. Fixing the wood first keeps the new cover secure.
Siding, water barrier and flashing at the base
Water can get in behind the siding at the chase base just as it can at the top. The siding needs a water-resistive barrier behind it, lapped so water runs out and down, and step flashing tucked up under the siding where it meets the roofing.
From inside, a leak at the base can look like a cover problem, so the chase base gets checked along with its top.
Flashing at the base is ours where the roofing around it is sound; siding and barrier replacement go to the right trade, and the quote names them. Both ends of the chase get checked on one visit.

FAQs
Worth knowing before a chase cover order
Should I choose galvanized or stainless?
Galvanized costs less and lasts well if it slopes and sheds water. Stainless costs more, lasts much longer and doesn't need painting. Our specialists price both.
Do you check for animals before sealing the chase?
Yes. Nothing gets sealed in. If an animal is nesting in the chase, our animal removal specialists handle it before the new cover goes on.
