A closer look at liner installation

Relining a chimney built without a lining

Some masonry chimneys were built without any flue lining at all. The code expects a masonry chimney to be lined, and an unlined passage leaves heat and flue gases against the brick and mortar. A listed liner is one way to meet that expectation.

An unlined chimney may also have gaps or rough surfaces that affect installation. We look at the passage and explain what preparation it needs. The estimate describes the liner, any insulation the listing calls for, and the work needed to get it in place.

Booking a relining assessment in Colee Hammock

Booking a relining assessment in Colee Hammock begins with a short conversation about the appliance and the problem. We ask about fuel, the age of the equipment and any earlier findings. That helps us bring the right measuring tools to the free inspection.

At the visit we look at the connection, the accessible flue and the chimney top. You get an explanation on site and a written estimate. Confirming the relining no more than 72 hours after that free inspection brings a 10% discount on the approved price. Bring the appliance manual to the visit if it is handy.

If a carbon monoxide alarm sounds near the appliance

If a carbon monoxide alarm goes off, move every person out of the house before doing anything else. From the yard, phone 911 and let the responders decide when anyone may go back in. Do not look for the cause yourself or reopen the appliance.

Once the house has been cleared and the emergency is over, the appliance and flue can be assessed. We explain what we find at the connection and in the lining. Any relining decision comes after that assessment, not during the emergency.

Leaving sound clay tile in place around a liner

Existing clay tiles may remain around a new liner when their condition, the available space and the selected lining system permit it. Broken tile, inadequate clearance or deposits that cannot be removed may require additional preparation or removal. The liner instructions and the condition of the complete flue determine the approach; tile condition alone does not settle the decision.

The estimate says whether the tile stays and why. If broken sections are removed and the rest kept, it says which. The written record repeats the decision, so a later inspection knows what surrounds the liner without having to guess. Keeping tile is a judgment made on evidence, not on convenience.

What to know before relining in Colee Hammock

How do you decide what size liner my chimney needs?

We start from the appliance manual, which states the flue size the appliance requires, and the code rule that a flue may not be smaller than the appliance connector. Then we check whether the passage can take that size along its whole route.

Will relining fix the cracks in my chimney's brickwork?

No. A liner works inside the flue. Cracked brick, open joints, a damaged crown or leaking flashing are separate conditions with their own repairs. We list them as separate items so you can decide on each one and see its price.

Why does the estimate list cleaning separately from the liner?

Liner makers ask for the existing flue to be inspected and cleaned before relining, and the effort varies from chimney to chimney. Listing it separately shows you what the preparation involves and what it adds to the total.
