Cracked tiles found during a sweep
Cracked clay tiles tend to come to light during a sweep or an inspection, and the next question is how far the damage runs. One cracked tile near the top can sometimes be repaired in place, and when that holds, you will see it written that way.
Cracks along the flue, tiles that have shifted, or joints open over a long run point toward relining, because a liner replaces the whole passage instead of patching part of it. The evidence from your Atlantic Beach flue and the reason for the choice come with the recommendation. Measuring is free in Atlantic Beach; call (904) 920-5495 and have the appliance model handy.
Atlantic Beach falls within Duval County. In the 2020 Census, Atlantic Beach counted 13,513 residents.

- Top plate clamped and sealed on the crown
How It Works
How chimney relining runs
-
Flue swept and proved
The old flue is cleaned and checked, and a test length or cone is lowered to confirm the liner will pass.
-
Liner sized to the appliance
The diameter comes from the stove collar, the insert or the fireplace opening, with insulation where the listing calls for it.
-
Liner lowered and connected
The liner goes down full height and joins a tee with a clean-out, or an adapter on the insert.
-
Top plate, clamp and cap
The top plate is fastened to the crown, the liner is clamped and trimmed, and a screened cap goes on.
Local Conditions
Liner tops on the Atlantic Beach shoreline
The ocean shore is part of Atlantic Beach, and the parts of a liner system that sit in the open, the top plate and the cap, take salt air every day. Their fasteners rust first if the metal does not match.
Liner caps in Atlantic Beach are stainless, fastened with stainless hardware, and the top plate is sealed to the crown so rain cannot run down between the old tile and the liner.

Rigid sections or flexible liner
Liners come in two forms. Rigid stainless sections join end to end into a smooth, round bore, and they suit a flue that runs straight and plumb from bottom to top. Flexible liner is corrugated, which lets it bend through offsets and absorb growth from heat along its length.
The choice follows the flue's shape. A straight flue can take either; a flue with offsets needs flexible liner or a rigid run with listed elbows where the offset allows. Both are listed systems, and each comes with its own joints, fittings and instructions that the installation follows.
Where an aluminum liner fits, and where it does not
Aluminum liners have a narrow listing. The makers write them for Category I gas appliances, those fitted with a draft hood or listed for Type B gas vent, and the instructions rule out solid fuel, liquid fuel and gas appliances in Categories II through IV.
So aluminum is out for any flue that serves, or might later serve, a fireplace or stove burning wood. It can be the right choice for a gas appliance that matches its listing. Where the chimney's future use is uncertain, stainless keeps more options open, and we explain the trade.
Breaking out tile that is in the way
When the old tile leaves too little room for the liner and its insulation, or pieces have shifted into the passage, the tile has to come out. It is broken from the top down with tools lowered on a rope or rods, and the pieces drop to the smoke chamber, where they are removed by hand.
The work is slow and noisy, and the room below is sealed off while it happens. Breaking out tile opens the flue to its full masonry size, which then becomes the space the liner and insulation have to fill. Tile removal is priced as its own line.

FAQ
Before a liner is ordered
Does a wood stove need a stainless liner?
The code requires the flue lining to suit the appliance, and a stove set into an existing masonry chimney needs a flue sized to its collar. Our answer is a listed stainless liner from the stove collar to the top, sized from the stove's manual.
What paperwork do I get after relining?
The liner maker's instructions and an installation record with the liner size, alloy, length and insulation. Keep them with the house papers for the next sweep, inspection or sale.
