Relining explained for Hunter's Creek homeowners

Plain explanations of relining in Hunter's Creek, from the crew that installs the liners.

Factory-built units listed for masonry chimneys

Factory-built chimneys or chimney units listed for installation within masonry chimneys are also accepted by the residential code. These are complete manufactured systems rather than a flexible liner alone, and their listing sets the clearances, the parts and the way they are supported.

We raise this route when a chimney's shape, its height or an appliance's needs point toward it, and we explain how it differs in plain terms before you choose. The estimate names the product either way, so there is no doubt about which system your chimney received.

What an inspection can and cannot see

The closer inspection NFPA 211 describes covers accessible portions of the chimney, including attics, crawl spaces and basements reached without removing permanent parts of the building. It does not mean opening walls or ceilings to look behind them.

When something that matters to the liner is hidden, such as framing behind a finished wall, we say so in writing and explain what further access would answer the question. We would rather state an open question plainly than quote as though it were known and correct the price later.

Masonry repairs that must come first

A liner hangs inside the chimney, so the chimney has to be structurally sound. One maker's instructions say that where masonry or mortar joints are missing, loose or cracked, repairs must be made before the liner is installed.

We list that masonry work separately and in order, so you can see what has to happen first, why it has to happen and what it involves on its own line. Some repairs can be done on the same visit as the relining, and others need time before the liner goes in. The estimate says which.

Chimney height limits in liner instructions

Liner instructions set limits on the chimneys they cover. One stainless flexible system, for example, calls for a chimney at least 10 feet high and no more than 100 feet.

A short chimney, or an unusual one, may need another product or approach. We check the height against the product before recommending it. Single-story homes with low chimneys are where this comes up, and the estimate explains any product change it forces.

Chimney liner questions from Hunter's Creek

No sales pitch, only answers from our liner specialists in Hunter's Creek.

Can a new liner go inside my existing clay tile?

Often it can, if the tile leaves enough room for the liner and any insulation, and damaged pieces will not block it. When there is not enough room, the tile may need to come out. We explain which applies after proving the route.

What if the chimney has cracked or loose masonry?

Loose, missing or cracked masonry has to be fixed before relining, because the liner depends on a sound chimney. We list that work separately and explain the order of the job.
