One McKinney visit, three things checked: the chimney chase, the roofline and the fence.

On Saturday our crew stopped by a home in McKinney, TX to look over the siding-clad chimney chase and the shingles around it, then walked the side-yard fence line and its galvanized steel posts.

Chimney Chase & Roofline

Chimney chases are framed boxes with siding, a cap and flashing where they meet the roof. Those joints are worth a look after every storm season.

Fence Line & Steel Posts

Steel posts outlast wood in North Texas soil. We checked the rails, brackets and corners along the fence.
