A tall chase and a short pipe

The required termination height comes from the actual chimney system and its surroundings. Our pros identify the system and consider the roof geometry before recommending changes. A height quoted for another model cannot establish that this chimney is correctly installed.

Where a chase was built tall, the pipe inside still has to meet those rules above the chase cover. Our pros check the pipe's height and its listed cap, and if the pipe falls short, they'll tell you, with your quote saying who fits the maker's extension. Speak with our specialists about your chase and pipe height in Tioga: (352) 675-6366.

Measured directly, about 8 miles separate Tioga from the Gainesville reference point. Tioga falls in the Alachua County part of our service area.

Local Conditions

Galvanized covers hold up inland

Inland in Tioga, a galvanized chase cover from the maker's standard stock can last well if it slopes and sheds water. Stainless costs more and lasts longer still. Our specialists price both, explain how each will wear on your house, and match the fasteners to the metal you choose. Either metal is fitted with a slope, a turndown and a drip. The quote names the one you pick.

Fasteners that don't rust first

A new cover is only as good as what holds it on. Ordinary steel screws rust before the cover does and leave streaks down the siding; screws driven into soft wood pull out in the wind.

Our specialists fasten covers through the side of the turndown with corrosion-resistant screws suited to the cover metal and the chase framing, and they avoid screwing through the flat top where water would sit around the fastener.

Where the framing is pressure-treated, fasteners rated for treated wood are used. The fastener type goes on the quote along with the cover metal. Screw heads are sealed where they pass the turndown.

Telling the cover from the cap

Factory-built chimneys have a chase cover and a chimney cap, separate parts that fail separately. The cover is the flat sheet on top of the framed box; the cap is the listed hood on the pipe.

Rust streaks on the siding and water inside the chase point to the cover. Rain coming straight down the pipe, a missing screen or smoke problems point to the cap.

Both parts get a look on every visit and a price on their own lines, so you don't pay to replace a sound part while the failing one keeps leaking.

Chase covers and a new roof

A reroof is a good time to deal with the chase. The roofers will be flashing around the base of the chase, and replacing a rusting cover at the same time means the whole chase is sealed top and bottom in one project.

Our pros coordinate with your roofer so the cover goes on while the roof is being worked on, and they check that the flashing at the chase base ties in behind the siding correctly.

The quote splits the work between the chimney side and the roofing side, so each trade knows exactly what's theirs. One project, one cleanup.

FAQs

Worth knowing before a chase cover order

Do your pros cover Tioga for chase cover work?

We do. Homes across Alachua County are on our list, Tioga included, and our pros look over the cover, both collars and the framing beneath at no charge. Mention any rust streaks on the siding when you phone.

Chase cover or chimney cap, which is which?

No. The cover seals the top of the framed box; the cap sits on the pipe. Our specialists check both and price each separately, so you only replace the one that's failing.
