Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing
A chimney chase cover is the metal lid on a framed chimney chase, the kind that surrounds a factory-built fireplace. It sheds water off the top of the frame. This service replaces a cover that is rusted, split, or missing.

The work
The cover is formed to overhang the chase and to let the flue pipe pass through with a collar. When it rusts through, water runs into the frame and shows up as stained siding or a wet ceiling beside the chimney. The new cover is measured to that chase.
Siding damage from that water is chimney siding repair. A masonry crown on a brick chimney is a different part. That is crown repair.
Why it matters
The chase cover is the roof of the chase. Once it has a hole, the framing underneath is what rots, and the flue collar is what lets water track down the pipe.
Replacing the cover stops that entry. It does not rebuild a frame that is already soft. The visit says if the wood under the cover is still sound.
What to expect
The chase is measured, the cover and the price are explained, and any soft framing is pointed out before the new lid goes on.
