Short answer

Chimney chase repair fixes the framed box that surrounds a factory-built fireplace flue: rotted chimney chase framing, soft sheathing, loose siding or cracked stucco. Because the damage nearly always starts with water at the top, the repair also replaces a failing chase cover or storm collar so the new framing stays dry.

How Water Rots a Chase

A chase top that holds water, a rusted cover or a failed storm collar lets rain run into the chase. It soaks the insulation, the plywood sheathing and the studs, and because it is hidden inside the box, the damage can go on for years. Rotted chimney chase repair usually finds the worst damage near the top and along the roof line.

Framing, Siding and Stucco

Wood chimney chase repair replaces rotted studs and plywood with new framing, adds a water-resistant barrier and closes the chase back up. Chimney chase siding repair matches the existing siding, and stucco chimney chase repair rebuilds the lath and stucco coats over the new framing. When most of the box is gone, a chimney chase rebuild from the roof line up is the cleaner job.

Stopping the Water for Good

Chimney chase framing repair only lasts if the top is sealed. We fit a sloped stainless steel chase cover with a storm collar and a cap listed for the fireplace, and check the flashing where the chase meets the roof.

Signs This Job Is Due

A framed chimney chase is a wooden box built around a factory-built fireplace flue and finished in siding or stucco. When water gets in, usually through a rusted chase cover, the framing and sheathing rot quietly. Our Stuart crew opens up the damaged area, repairs the structure and finish, and stops the water at the top.

  • Soft, bulging or stained siding on the chase
  • Cracked or loose stucco on a framed chimney
  • Rust streaks from the top of the chase
  • Water in the fireplace or the wall beside it
