A closer look at liner installation
What stays hidden during a relining assessment
Parts of a flue cannot be seen from the top or the bottom, especially behind offsets. We describe the accessible sections and say which parts remain concealed. A proposal should not pretend to know the condition of a passage nobody could see.
Where concealed sections could change the job, the estimate names that risk in plain words. If opening the passage reveals something new, work pauses and we explain it. Nothing is added to the agreed scope until you approve it, and the price of any addition is stated first.
A new liner for an ageing appliance
Relining for an appliance that is near the end of its life deserves a pause. The liner should suit the appliance you will actually run. If a replacement is likely soon, sizing for the current unit may not serve you well.
We explain the liner options for the current appliance and what would change with a different one. The choice is yours, and the estimate says which appliance it assumes. Replacing the appliance itself sits outside our relining estimate. If you replace it later, the liner may need to change with it.
Room clearances belong to the appliance manual
Clearances between an appliance and nearby walls, floors or furniture come from the appliance's manual. Relining the chimney does not change them. A new liner does not make an unsafe appliance position safe.
If we notice a clearance concern in the room, we mention it. Correcting it may involve the appliance installer rather than our team. The estimate focuses on the liner, and our note makes sure the concern is not lost between the two jobs. Room clearances are checked against the manual, not by eye.
Using the fireplace while a liner decision is pending
If an inspection has raised doubts about the lining, the careful course is to hold off using the fireplace or appliance until it is resolved. A damaged lining can let heat and flue gases reach places they should not. Waiting a short time costs little.
Tell us if you depend on the appliance and the decision is urgent. We explain what is known and what remains uncertain. The choice to resume use should rest on findings, not on the calendar or on how the fireplace looks from the room.

More about relining your chimney in The Hammocks
What should I have ready for the free inspection?
The appliance make and model, its manual if you have it, and any earlier inspection wording about the lining. Old invoices for chimney work help too. If you cannot find these, we locate the model label during the visit.
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.
What warranty applies to a new chimney liner?
Two apply. The liner maker's product warranty has its own conditions, often including maintenance. Our workmanship warranty covers how we installed it. We explain both when we hand over the written record of the work.
