Chimney Relining

Why Chimney Relining?

The liner of your chimney, also called the flue, is one of its most important parts. It protects your chimney walls by channeling heat and gas up through the chimney and out the top, preventing combustible materials from catching fire.

The chimney liner deteriorates with use over time, but can also become damaged due to lightning, strong storms, foundation settling or fire. The chimney liners of older homes may show significant wear and tear, and some older homes may have chimneys with no liners at all. 

Having your chimney relined is a practical and affordable way to repair a damaged or deteriorated liner. Chimney relining is one of the many services T.J.’s Chimney Service provides.

Brandon and Jordan did an excellent and professional job of removing our old fireplace and installing the new fireplace. This included masonry and carpentry work. Brandon was very precise with his installation of the cultured stone around the fireplace as well as reinstalling the mantel and trim. We highly recommend them.
