A Persistent Dripping Sound Raises Concerns
During the storm, Mr. Tyler Poling noticed something out of the ordinary: a steady dripping noise coming from inside his chimney. Concerned about possible water damage and unsure of the cause, he decided to act quickly.
He turned to Google in search of a reputable chimney repair company near his Fishers, Indiana home. What stood out immediately was Beck’s Chimney Sweep. With our decades of experience, strong customer reviews, and convenient location in nearby Noblesville, Mr. Poling felt confident giving us a call.
On-Site Evaluation Reveals the Real Problem
We promptly scheduled an on-site inspection. Our technician Kasey visited the home to assess the situation. After a thorough evaluation of the chimney system, Kasey discovered the source of the leak: a rusted chimney chase cover.
Chase covers are critical to keeping rain and debris out of a prefabricated chimney system. Over time, lower-quality galvanized or painted metal covers can begin to rust and deteriorate – especially in areas like Fishers where seasonal storms and freeze-thaw cycles are common. In Mr. Poling’s case, the rust had advanced far enough to allow water to enter the chimney structure.
Fast Turnaround & Professional Installation
After identifying the problem, Kasey recommended replacing the rusted chase cover with a new, custom-fabricated stainless steel model. Stainless steel is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, and the custom fabrication would ensure a perfect fit for Mr. Poling’s existing chimney structure.
Perhaps best of all, the new chase cover came with a lifetime warranty – providing long-term protection against future leaks. We prepared the estimate and walked Mr. Poling through the scope of work. He was pleased with the transparent pricing and quick turnaround, and gave us the go-ahead to move forward.
In less than a week, the new stainless steel chase cover was built to spec and ready for installation. We coordinated a return visit, and Kasey returned to the home to complete the job. The old, rusted chase cover was removed, and the new stainless steel model was securely installed.
The work was done efficiently and with care, ensuring the new chase cover was sealed correctly and ready to withstand the next wave of storms. With more rain in the forecast, Mr. Poling was relieved to have the issue resolved and his chimney protected from future events.
