Sound tile, wrong size
Relining is not only for broken flues. A clay-tiled flue in good condition can still be the wrong size for what now burns below it, for example when a stove replaces an open fire or a new gas appliance replaces an old one.
In that case the tile stays where it is, and the liner runs inside it at the size the appliance needs. The tile becomes a protective sleeve around the new flue. The sizing is explained to Middleburg homeowners so the reason for relining a sound flue is clear. Nothing is broken out that does not need to be.

What's Included
Chimney liner work we take on in Middleburg
- Liner diameter taken from the collar or the opening
- Broken tile cleared out of the liner's way
- Insert joined with the maker's stove adapter
- Screened liner cap fastened at the top plate
How It Works
Sweep, prove, size, reline
-
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
Cracked tile found during a sweep
A sweep in Middleburg sometimes turns up cracked or missing flue tile. Hot gas and sparks can reach the brick behind a crack.
Relining with a listed stainless liner is one way to restore the flue, and the estimate explains the choices.

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.
The tee and clean-out at the bottom
Where a stove connects through the chimney wall, the liner ends in a tee. Its branch passes through the wall opening to meet the stove's connector, and its bottom carries a removable cap.
That cap is the clean-out. When the liner is swept from the top, the deposit falls to the tee, the cap comes off, and the debris is emptied without disconnecting the stove from the wall. The tee is supported so the liner's weight does not hang on the connection, and the opening in the masonry around the branch is sealed so room air does not leak into the flue.
When the flue is too big for the appliance
An oversized flue causes trouble too, though it shows up differently from an undersized one. Exhaust slows down in a passage much larger than the appliance's collar, loses heat to the extra surface, and condenses. The result is heavy creosote with wood and damp, acidic deposits with gas.
Liner makers set a floor and a ceiling for liner size: no smaller than the appliance collar, and in one maker's instructions no more than three times its area for solid fuel. A liner inside the oversized flue restores the right size without changing the masonry around it. The collar size and the liner size are shown side by side, so the fix is easy to check.

FAQ
Relining questions from Middleburg
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.
Can I use the new-customer 10% off on relining?
Yes. Ask for 10% off your first service when you book the estimate visit, and it is applied if relining is your first job with us.
