The Details Behind a Sound Chimney Liner
A family crew that relines chimneys locally, with prices set before work and a 100% satisfaction guarantee behind them.
Repairs the chimney may need before relining
A new liner does not cancel every defect around it. The manufacturer instructions we follow say defects found during preparation are repaired before relining, unless the lining system itself is what corrects them.
Loose bricks at the top, open joints and a cracked crown are usually separate repairs. A broken clay tile inside the flue may be something the new liner replaces.
Our estimate separates the two kinds of work, so you can see which items the liner handles and which need their own repair.
When a bigger flue works against the appliance
A larger liner is not automatically a better one. Liner makers warn that high-efficiency appliances with cooler flue gases need correctly sized liners, because an oversized passage can lead to condensation and poor venting.
Cooler gases moving slowly through a big flue lose heat before they reach the top, and moisture can condense on the way. The result can be weak draft and deposits.
Our team sizes the liner to the appliance first and to the chimney second, and explains the choice in plain terms.
Replacing clay flue tile with clay tile
Clay tile remains a lining option under the Florida Building Code. New clay liners are set in medium-duty, water-insoluble refractory mortar, supported on every side, and carried from the top of the smoke chamber up past the top of the chimney walls.
BIA advises inspecting each flue tile for cracks just before it is set. Replacing clay with clay usually means opening the chimney, which is why it tends to belong with a rebuild.
When clay is the better answer for your chimney, we explain what opening the stack involves and price it clearly.
Relining the flue or repairing the tiles
Not every damaged lining needs a full liner. A few cracked tiles near the top can sometimes be repaired, while damage along the length of the flue usually points to relining.
The deciding factors are where the damage sits, how much of the flue it affects and what the appliance needs. A repair that leaves the flue undersized or still leaking is not a saving. Where damage is limited to the top few tiles, the tile repair and any crown work are often done together.
We give you both options where both are realistic, each with its own written price.
