What a Fort Pierce chase cover replacement actually includes
The short version of how we handle it in Fort Pierce: We measure the chase and fabricate a cover with a built-in slope and a collar that sheds water away from the seams. In 316 stainless or copper it outlives galvanized by decades inside the salt-air line. This close to the Fort Pierce Inlet, that means assuming salt-air corrosion on every exposed metal part — cap, flashing, and damper. On the coast side of Fort Pierce we default to corrosion-resistant hardware; inland we focus on water management — the on-site look tells us which yours needs.
- 316 stainless or copper for coastal exposure
- Replaces the rust-through that caused the leak
- Custom-fabricated to your chase dimensions
