About Our Chimney Liner Repair Service

The flue liner is the most critical safety component of your chimney. It contains combustion gases and heat, preventing them from contacting the wood framing around your chase. Clay tile liners develop cracks from thermal cycling, earthquake movement, or chimney fires. Once cracked, combustion gases — including carbon monoxide — can seep through the masonry and enter your home. Ceramic resurfacing and stainless-steel relining are both established repair categories for damaged clay liner systems; which one applies depends on the condition of the liner.

What's Included

  • ✓Repair and relining options for a damaged flue liner
  • ✓Applies to clay tile liners and to metal liner systems
  • ✓Stainless liner options for relining a damaged flue
  • ✓Ceramic repair as an alternative to a full reline
  • ✓Relevant where a flue has cracked, gapped or corroded

Our Process

1

Establishing liner condition

Liner repair starts from the condition of the flue and how far the damage runs.

2

Repair or replace

Whether resurfacing or relining applies depends on how much of the liner is affected.

3

Ceramic resurfacing (repair option)

A ceramic resurfacer applied to the interior of a clay tile liner is one repair route where the liner is otherwise sound.

4

Relining (replacement option)

Relining with a continuous stainless liner is the other route, where the existing liner is too far gone to resurface.

5

Top connection

A new liner is finished at the top of the flue with an appropriate plate and cap.

Chimney Liner Repair FAQ

Symptoms include a smoke odor in rooms adjacent to the chimney, evidence of a past chimney fire (puffy creosote), or liner damage picked up during an inspection. The only definitive answer comes from assessing the full length of the flue.
