Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing
A chimney liner is the inner wall of the flue. It may be clay tile or a metal liner. Chimney liner repair fixes a liner that is cracked, separated, or rusted so gases stay inside the passage.

The work
Clay tiles stack inside a masonry chimney. A cracked or shifted tile leaves a gap. A metal liner can dent, separate at a joint, or corrode from years of exhaust and moisture. The repair depends on how much of the liner failed. A single broken tile is a different job from a liner that has failed top to bottom.
When the old liner cannot be repaired, a new one is an installation. That scope is on the liner installation page. The visit tells you which one it is.
Why it matters
The liner is what separates smoke and heat from the wood framing and the rooms beside the chimney. A hole in it is not only a draft problem. It is a path for gases.
If anyone feels sick while a fireplace or heating appliance is running, get outside and call emergency services before calling A1.
What to expect
The liner is inspected, repair versus replacement is explained in plain language, and the price comes before any demolition or installation.
