  2. CrownThe concrete slab on top of the stack. Once it cracks, water goes straight into the masonry below. Masonry Repair →
  3. Flue linerCarries smoke and exhaust safely up and out. Cracked or missing liners are the most common hidden problem. Chimney Liners →
  4. MasonryBrick or stone and mortar. Freeze-thaw cycles open the joints first, then the bricks start to spall. Masonry Repair →

Chimney Liners questions

Before you book

Why does a gas appliance need its own liner?
Modern high-efficiency boilers and water heaters produce cooler, wetter exhaust. In an old clay flue that moisture condenses, attacks the mortar and tiles, and can lead to blockage or carbon monoxide problems. A liner sized for the appliance fixes that.
How long does a stainless liner last?
A properly installed stainless liner matched to its fuel is built to last for decades. The key is the right alloy for the fuel and the right size for the appliance.
Can a liner go into a chimney with bends?
Flexible stainless liners are made for exactly that. Where the flue is too tight, it can sometimes be enlarged; we confirm with a camera first.
