Chimney company in Hollywood with free inspections

Of all the parts of a chimney, the flue liner is the one you rarely see and the one that does most of the protecting. It keeps heat and combustion gases inside the passage and away from the house framing. The chimney chapter of the Florida Building Code requires masonry chimneys to have one. Our family team installs and repairs liners in Hollywood.

We also do the sweeping, masonry and fireplace work that usually leads to the question. Relining is not one product for every chimney. The liner has to suit the appliance it serves, whether that is an open wood fireplace, a wood insert or a gas unit. A gas appliance venting into a masonry chimney follows the fuel gas volume of the code.

A listed metal liner follows its own installation instructions. Those cover the connection at the bottom and the termination at the top. Tell us what burns in the fireplace now and what you plan to use in future. If you are considering an insert, mention the model, because its manual decides the lining it needs.

Cracked tiles, gaps between tiles and heavy deposits can each lead to a liner recommendation. We explain which of them we found. The free inspection covers the flue as far as it can be seen from the accessible ends, and we tell you what remains out of view. The estimate lists the liner, the cap and any masonry work as separate items.

Pricing is upfront. Give the go-ahead while the 72-hour window after your free inspection is open, and the service you choose is 10% off. An open flue is covered when we stop each day, and the old material leaves with us. You receive a written record and our workmanship warranty.
