What We Fabricate

Custom sheet metal
fabrication services

Made in our own shop, in the material and finish you specify. If your project needs something that is not on this list, ask — most of what we build started as a drawing somebody brought us.

01 — Chimney Caps

Custom chimney caps

Precision-fabricated caps built to shed water off a specific chimney. Dimensions, louvre spacing and the crown profile change from one job to the next, so nothing here comes off a shelf.

What it includes

  • Flat-top, louvered and pyramid profiles
  • French-curved and other specialty designs
  • Architectural shrouds and chimney enclosures
  • Chase covers with a formed slope and a welded flue collar
  • Mesh screening and banded frames where the job calls for them

Where it goes

  • Masonry and framed chimneys on new residential work
  • Replacement caps on existing chimneys
  • Multi-family and townhouse roofs, often in runs
  • Spark and rain protection over an open flue

Louvered & Architectural Chimney Caps

Custom louvered and architectural chimney caps built to suit the dimensions and character of the project. Louvered sections maintain open ventilation around the enclosure while helping shed rain, and designs can incorporate sloped covers, architectural crowns and custom formed details. Louvre spacing, overall height and crown profile can be tailored to the chimney.

02 — Flashing

Standard and
custom flashing

The everyday profiles off the brake, and the ones that have to be drawn first. Our S-Lock interlocking profile is the one we are asked for most: fewer screw penetrations means fewer opportunities for water seepage, and a cleaner finished line.

What it includes

  • S-Lock interlocking flashing
  • Standard wall, roof and step flashing
  • Custom profiles cut and formed to your drawing
  • Flue collars welded to a flashing base, cut to the roof pitch
  • Curved flashing from the specialty shop

Where it goes

  • Wall-to-roof junctions and chimney penetrations
  • Window and door heads
  • Coastal and industrial sites, in aluminum
  • Anywhere a stock profile does not fit the detail

03 — Coping & Roof Accessories

Coping and
roof accessories

The metal that finishes a roof off: the capping along the top of a parapet, the trim that runs the length of a detail, and the accessories that sit on the deck.

What it includes

  • Parapet and wall coping
  • Standing seam components and chimney enclosures
  • Architectural trim pieces
  • Vents
  • Copper scuppers from the specialty shop

Where it goes

  • Flat and low-slope roofs with a parapet
