Chimney Relining
Chimney relining improves safety by addressing liner damage or corrosion issues.
Overview
Over time, chimney liners can deteriorate, leading to safety issues and inefficient performance.
Chimney relining involves installing a new liner to restore the chimney's function and protect against heat transfer to combustible materials.
Relining is often necessary for older homes or if you've converted your fireplace to burn a different type of fuel.
Signs you may need it
- Visible damage or corrosion in the existing liner.
- Smoke entering living areas during fireplace use.
- A change in fuel type used in your fireplace.
- Noticeable performance decrease in chimney draw.
What happens on the visit
- Initial inspection of the existing liner for damage.
- Selection of the appropriate lining material (such as stainless steel).
- Installation of the new liner with secure fittings.
- Testing and final inspection to ensure optimal function.
