    Hi Kayle,


    Here's a quick run down on chimney chases, not sure how creative you can make these,


    Copper: Copper is considered to be the top-quality metal for covers. However, because of its extremely high price tag, most homeowners find that it is too expensive of an option to consider.

    Stainless steel: Often the most popular choice as it offers a balance between durability and price. One of the strongest metals, it can virtually last a lifetime.

    Galvanized steel: While less expensive than stainless steel, galvanized steel rusts quickly and will need to be regularly replaced. Galvanized steel offers short term savings, but may end up costing homeowners more in the long run.

    Aluminum: Unlike galvanized steel, aluminum will not rust. However, it is a soft metal that may damage easily, and finding the correct size chase cover may be difficult.

    Sheetrock over a wood frame too.

    Tile seems to all the rage now. Some are very pretty and not too expensive.

    Hello Kayle!

    We did this at my parents cabin so I don’t have pictures. However we build a frame & covered it with a one of a kind metal art piece. We created a Viking warrior. The fire place safety cover continues the design, so we have a full body on our warrior. Welding and plasma work is awesome! If it was not 3 hours away I would go now to get pic’s!

    Cheers!
