The chimney flue is the internal shaft that vents smoke as well as gases which are created by burning a fire in the fireplace.

Adding a chimney liner or relining your chimney can help shield your flue from damage as well as protect against fires. The three primary sorts of liners are metal, clay, and cast-in-place liners.
Metal liners are a recently favored type of chimney liner for upgrades and repair work. They are generally produced from stainless-steel, although they can sometimes be made from aluminum also. Metal liners are are really versatile, offered in rigid or flexible models, and most any residence can accommodate them.
Clay tile liners are some of the most common kind of chimney liner. Most older residences have clay liners. They are rather inexpensive, but require routine upkeep to ensure that flue tiles don't fracture, split, or break.
Cast in place liners are a light material comparable to cement that is installed inside the chimney for a seamless flue. These types of liners have a tendency to be difficult to. install and expensive. With time, they can start to develop fractures and require relining.
Our pros can help determine the very best choices for your home.
The chimney crown is extremely vital. It functions as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your entire chimney. This shields your flue and chimney from rain and other elements.
When the chimney crown gets cracks or comes to be damaged at all, it enables rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can trigger severe damage to the whole chimney if not fixed. When uncovered early, basic repairs can be made to prevent issues from taking place.
If cracking in the chimney crown is minor, the fractures can be loaded with patch and a waterproof sealant can be used on top. This will securely prevent water from getting in.
In circumstances where there is much more extensive damage to the crown, it may be needed to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild only the crown. This will secure the chimney for many more years. It is necessary to have a professional chimney repair inspect the crown, flue, and whole chimney to make sure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap protects your home in many ways. It keeps rainfall, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fire place as well as protects against hot sparks as well as embers from flying out and into your roof. You must never run your fire place or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless steel, light weight aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service technicians can replace your chimney cap or install a new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
Lots of people confuse the chimney damper with the flue. The flue is the interior of the chimney that smoke journeys through. The damper is the portion of the chimney that blocks air flow to the exterior. When a damper comes to be old, it needs repair service. Normally repairing or changing the existing old metal damper can be expensive.
It's much better to mount a top sealing damper. They are less expensive, and every reliable. A top sealing damper will keep cold drafts as well as undesirable weather outside. A substantial amount of airflow can leak in via the chimney from the outside, making your home feel colder in the winter. This can easily add up to hundreds of dollars each year in extra home heating expenses.
There are times when a quick fixing isn't a great option and a damaged chimney needs to be entirely rebuilt. Our expert chimney experts can do chimney masonry repair service as well as full chimney rebuilding.
