What goes into a liner job in Engelwood Park

What we check on liner jobs in Engelwood Park, and the source behind each check.

Why new clay tile is rare in an existing chimney

Clay tile goes in as a chimney is built, course by course, with the masonry laid around it. Putting new tile into a finished chimney generally means opening the masonry to reach the flue, which turns a relining into a partial rebuild.

A listed metal system can be lowered from the top instead, which is why relining proposals for existing chimneys are usually built around one. If your chimney is being rebuilt anyway, clay can come back into the discussion, and we price both approaches honestly so you can weigh them.

A relined flue still needs its yearly check

A new liner does not end chimney maintenance. NFPA 211 wants chimneys, fireplaces and vents checked every year to see that they are sound, free of heavy deposits and correctly clear of combustibles, then cleaned or repaired as that check shows.

The liner's own instructions add care guidance for that system. We leave those papers with you, so the next visit starts from the right information instead of a guess about what is in the flue. A yearly look also catches a loose cap or a clogged tee early, while the fix is small.

The flue and the connector

Section R1003.14 of the residential code does not let the flue's area drop below that of the appliance's connector. It is a simple check, and a liner that fails it is a problem however neatly it is installed.

We measure both, record them on the estimate and flag any mismatch before a liner is ordered. If an existing connector is the wrong size for the appliance as well, that goes on its own line, since the connector and the liner have to work together from the collar to the top.

Where the insulation wrap stops

When a liner is insulated with a wrap, one manufacturer has the insulation run from the bottom of the tee, including the tee cap, and stop about 3 inches below the crown to allow for vertical thermal expansion.

Details like that decide whether the liner can move freely as it heats and cools. A wrap that runs too high can bind at the top plate, and one that stops too low leaves part of the flue bare. We install to the instructions line by line and note the insulation on your records.

Relining answers for Engelwood Park homeowners

Short answers first. The free inspection in Engelwood Park fills in the details for your chimney.

Will relining fix a fireplace that draws poorly?

It can when the flue size or temperature is the cause. Poor draw can also come from a blocked cap, a closed damper or a short chimney. We check those first and recommend relining only when it answers the actual problem.

Is your relining work guaranteed?

It is. Every liner we install carries our workmanship warranty, and under our 100% satisfaction guarantee we return to fix anything that is not right.
