What goes into relining your chimney
Keep the flue at least as large as the connector
The code does not allow a chimney flue to be smaller in area than the connector coming from the appliance. A liner that narrows the passage below that size works against the equipment it is supposed to serve. The rule applies whether the flue is clay, metal or another listed material.
We check the outlet on the appliance against the proposed liner before anything is ordered. If the existing flue cannot take a liner of the needed size, you hear that at the assessment. The options then shift to preparing the passage or reconsidering the equipment, and each is priced separately.
Offsets in the flue and flexible liners
Not every flue rises straight from the fireplace to the top. Offsets and bends limit what kind of liner can pass and how it is supported. Flexible liners can follow some bends that rigid pipe cannot, within the limits the maker publishes.
We check the route before recommending flexible or rigid pipe. An offset may also limit the liner size that fits, which feeds back into the sizing question. If the route cannot take the liner the appliance needs, that is explained before the estimate is final, not discovered on installation day.
When a gas appliance allows another liner material
Some gas-fired appliance listings allow liner materials that would not suit solid fuel. The appliance manual and the liner listing together decide what is acceptable. A material that is fine for one fuel may be wrong for another.
We do not assume one metal suits every flue. If you might switch from gas to solid fuel later, a liner chosen only for gas may need replacing. Tell us about that possibility, and we explain how it changes the recommendation before any size or material is fixed.
When relining is not the recommendation
Sometimes the assessment points away from relining. The lining may be repairable, the appliance may need a different vent, or the chimney structure may need attention first. A liner estimate in those cases would solve the wrong problem.
We explain the reason and the alternative. If the alternative is work we do, we describe it and price it. If it belongs to another trade, we say so and do not stretch our scope to cover it, because a clear boundary protects you. A clear no is as useful to you as a clear yes.

Questions to settle before relining
Can you reline a chimney that serves a gas-fired appliance?
Yes, where the fuel gas code and the appliance manual allow a chimney liner. The code accepts listed liners, clay lining or other approved material. The appliance's own venting type decides whether a chimney liner is appropriate at all.
How does the discount after the free inspection work?
When you book the relining no more than 72 hours after your free inspection, a 10% discount applies to the agreed work. The window starts from your own inspection, and the estimate shows the figure before you decide.
Does relining change how my chimney looks from outside?
Usually only the top changes, where the top plate and the liner cap sit above the crown. If a wall connection is involved, the tee opening is finished and sealed. We describe any visible change in the estimate before work starts.
