Pompano Beach · Broward CountyThe metal lid on a framed chimney rusts out fast near the beach — we replace it with metal that belongs here.
A chase cover is the sheet-metal lid sealing the top of a framed chimney chase. Its single duty is shedding water, and within reach of ocean spray it tends to be the house's first casualty. Builder-grade galvanized pans pit, rust, and eventually perforate, announcing themselves as orange streaks down the siding long before the leak shows up inside.
Replacement is straightforward when it's done with respect for the environment: a new cover fabricated to fit, in stainless or aluminum that shrugs off chloride, cross-broken so water runs to the edges, with a storm collar sealed around the flue. Done once, properly, it retires the problem.
Your cover gets built to your chase's precise measurements rather than persuading a stock pan into place.
Stainless or heavy aluminum chosen specifically for salt exposure.
A slight peak bends water to the edges so nothing ponds.
Storm collar and fastener points are sealed against wind-driven rain.
We take exact dimensions and check the flue penetration and chase top condition.
Your cover is made to size and set with proper overhangs and drip edges.
Collar, seams, and fasteners are sealed and the finished top is water-tested.

In marine-grade metal, decades. In builder-grade galvanized within a mile of the beach, often well under ten years. The metal choice is the entire ballgame on the coast.
That is the cover corroding — rust washing off the pan with every rain. It's cosmetic first and a leak later; replacing the cover addresses both.
Coatings buy months, not years, and they trap the problem underneath. A perforating pan needs replacement, and a proper one won't ask again.
The two usually pair up: the cover seals the chase deck while the cap guards the flue opening. When both are aging we'll quote them as one visit.
No — the entire job happens at the rooftop. You'll know it happened only because the streaks stop.
