Relining during a home sale

A buyer's inspection sometimes flags the flue: cracked tile, missing mortar, or no liner at all. A relining estimate answers that finding with a specific scope, which helps both sides negotiate on facts instead of guesses and tells the buyer exactly what will change.

If the work is done before closing, the installation record and the liner's paperwork go to the new owner with the house. Tell us the closing date when you call, and whether a permit is expected, so the Oakleaf Plantation schedule allows for it. If the work waits until after closing, the estimate still gives both sides a written scope to plan around. New stove or insert going into your Oakleaf Plantation home? Call (904) 920-5495 and we will size the liner.

How chimney relining runs

Sweep and prove the flue
The flue is swept clean, then a test piece or cone is lowered to make sure the liner will pass every bend.
Size and alloy chosen
The diameter comes from the appliance collar or the fireplace opening, and the alloy from the fuel.
Liner run down and joined
The liner goes down with its insulation where the listing asks, and joins the stove, insert or smoke chamber below.
Top plate, cap and record
The top plate is clamped and sealed, the cap fastened, and you get the installation record.

Gas appliances and flue size in Oakleaf Plantation

Gas exhaust carries water vapor, and in an oversized masonry flue it can cool and condense, washing out mortar joints.

When a gas appliance vents into a chimney in Oakleaf Plantation, the liner is sized from the venting tables in NFPA 54 and the appliance manual.

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.

The crown under a new top plate

A top plate sits on the crown and seals to it, so the crown's condition matters to the liner. A crown with open cracks lets water into the masonry around the new flue, and water trapped between old tile and liner can stain the chimney and rust fasteners.

When the crown is sound except for small cracks, a crown sealer before the plate goes on may be enough. When it is broken up or missing its overhang, repair or recasting comes first. Either way the crown work is its own line on the estimate, so the liner price stays the liner price.

Before a liner is ordered

Can relining be done in one day?

A plain liner in a straight, clean flue can go in within a day. Tile removal, insulation, crown repair or a new wall opening add time, and the estimate gives the schedule.

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.
