Chimney Relining

Relining your chimney improves safety and efficiency, and prevents structural damage.

Overview

A chimney liner protects your home from the heat of the fireplace, prevents dangerous gases from leaking into your living space, and improves overall efficiency.

If your liner is damaged or degraded, it can lead to safety hazards and reduce the performance of your fireplace.

Our relining process involves assessing the current state of your chimney, recommending the best liner material, and installing it with precision.

Signs you may need it

  1. Cracked or chipped liner tiles.
  2. Noticeable smoke leaks or drafts in your home.
  3. Unusual odors emanating from your fireplace.
  4. Excessive soot or creosote buildup.

What happens on the visit

  1. Inspect the current chimney liner for damage or wear.
  2. Discuss liner material options with the homeowner.
  3. Remove the old liner and prepare the chimney for relining.
  4. Install the new liner and conduct a safety inspection.
