Chimney Chase Top Replacement in Aurora

2017 is the year for chimney chase top replacement at Fox Valley’s best chimney sweep Valley Chimney Sweep & Restoration. Normally we complete about 100 of these chimney chase replacements each year. It’s only July, and we’ve already surpassed that number! Our most recent replacement took place on a home in Aurora.

A reliable chimney chase top is essential. The chimney chase cover is a flat sheet of copper or stainless steel covering the top surface of the chimney housing. It is fitted over the edges of the housing to keep moisture from entering the chimney structure. Moisture within your chimney can quickly cause it to deteriorate and lead to costly repairs.

If you own a home with a chimney, the chimney chase top should undergo an annual inspection — like the rest of your chimney system. Yearly inspections will ensure imperfections are found and fixed in short order before moisture does any serious damage.

At Valley Chimney, our chimney chase covers are sourced locally. For the best fit, Valley measures your chimney’s dimensions and our chase covers are custom cut to your exact specifications. We avoid prefabricated chimney chase covers made with galvanized metal, which begin to rust after the factory installed coating wears off.
