Signs You Need Chimney Relining Services

Your chimney’s lining directs heat and gas upward to prevent combustible materials around the structure from catching fire. That’s why it’s important to know when the lining is compromised. Here are some warning signs your lining needs to be replaced: 

  • Smoke enters your home when using your fireplace.
  • There are visible cracks inside your chimney liner or on the masonry.
  • There is excessive creosote or soot buildup in your firebox.
  • If you have a clay-lined chimney, there are flaking, crumbling or broken tiles inside the flue. 

Which Liner Is Right for Your Home?

Our technicians will assess your chimney and heating system and guide you to the safest, most effective option for your home. At Chimney.com, we offer three reliable liner options:

Stainless steel liners are a popular choice for relining an existing chimney due to their strength, flexibility and durability. They’re also compatible with most fuel types, resist corrosion and are easy to install. 

These liners are an excellent option for lining a chimney during new home construction. This long-lasting material has a lifespan of 50 years and is the most cost-effective option. However, clay tile liners are not ideal for relining existing chimneys, as installation may require major reconstruction. If your current clay liner is damaged, a stainless steel liner may be a more practical replacement.

Cast-in-place liners add structural support to aging chimneys and can help reduce creosote buildup. While highly durable, cast-in-place liners are most beneficial for restoring older or uniquely shaped chimneys.
