Chimney Relining & Flue Liner Installation in Saint Paul, MN

Chimney relining is one of the most critical safety upgrades for Minnesota homes, especially those with aging masonry chimneys built before modern safety standards. The flue liner is your chimney's first line of defense against carbon monoxide poisoning, house fires, and structural damage. In Minnesota's harsh climate, flue liners face extreme challenges. Rapid temperature changes cause expansion and contraction stress, while freeze-thaw cycles can crack clay tiles. Older homes often have undersized or deteriorated liners that fail to meet current safety codes. Modern stainless steel liners offer superior performance in Minnesota conditions: - Withstand extreme temperature variations - Resist corrosion from condensation and chemicals - Provide proper sizing for efficient operation - Last 15-20 years with minimal maintenance - Meet all current safety and building codes Our relining process includes complete removal of old materials, proper sizing calculations, insulation installation where required, and comprehensive testing. We work with homeowners to choose the most appropriate liner system for their heating appliance and usage patterns. Clay tile relining remains appropriate for certain applications, especially wood-burning fireplaces in good structural condition. We assess each chimney individually to recommend the most cost-effective, long-lasting solution.
