Start with the finding

When does a chimney liner need attention?

These signs are reasons to inspect the venting system, not a diagnosis from a photo or phone call. We look at the flue and connected appliance before recommending a scope.

Tile pieces or visible flue damage

What we check: How far the damage extends and whether a suitable repair is possible.

Smoke, odors, or poor draft

What we check: The venting path, sizing, blockage, appliance setup, and other possible causes.

A new appliance or fuel change

What we check: The appliance instructions, connector, flue dimensions, and liner requirements.

A chimney fire or major system change

What we check: The appropriate inspection and documented condition before further use or relining.

The CSIA Level 2 masonry inspection procedure recommends this level when a chimney will be lined or relined. See our Philadelphia chimney inspections.

Choose the right scope

Repair, new liner, or another venting fix?

The answer depends on the condition found, the appliance being vented, and the system that can be used for that application.

Install a new liner

When a new system is appropriate, its size and listing must fit the connected appliance, fuel, and chimney.

Repair an existing flue

Some existing flues may be candidates for a suitable repair method after their condition is documented.

Address another cause

A liner is not the answer to every draft or smoke problem. The appliance, connector, or chimney may need different work.

We explain the findings and identify the proposed system in writing. See our broader chimney repair approach.

Price and scope

What does chimney liner installation cost?

$2,100–$5,900 planning range

The written price depends on your appliance, flue size and height, access, liner system, and the work needed around the connection and chimney top. Some complex fireplace projects or additional repairs cost more.

Financing is available for eligible projects. See financing options.

What your written estimate should identify

  • The flue and appliance covered, proposed system, and installation scope
  • Included connections, insulation or chimney-top work, when applicable
  • Any separate masonry work, exclusions, and the total price
  • Project timing and the product and workmanship coverage that apply

You can review the scope and total before approving work.

Franklin Chimney did a wonderful job fixing my chimney and putting in a stainless-steel liner and cap on top of my chimney. They came out quickly for an estimate and did the work in the same week. They were very professional and explained everything they would be doing before the job started. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest, reliable, and high-quality service. Thank you for making this such a great experience!

Common Questions

Answers Before You Call

Tile pieces, visible damage, new smoke or draft trouble, a chimney fire, or a change of appliance are reasons to have the venting system checked. Those signs do not establish the repair by themselves. We assess the flue and connected appliance before recommending work. Learn about chimney inspections.

Our planning range is $2,100–$5,900 for chimney liner installation. The written total depends on the appliance, flue height and size, access, liner system, and any related connector, chimney-top, or masonry work. Complex fireplace projects or additional repairs can cost more. We give you a written scope and price before work begins.

Yes. Financing is available for eligible liner projects, subject to provider approval and plan terms. Review your written installation scope and total, then ask about current payment options before choosing how to proceed.

Sometimes. The answer depends on the liner material, where and how it is damaged, the appliance it vents, and whether an appropriate repair method fits that system. We explain the findings and suitable options before quoting a new liner. See our chimney repair approach.

For Pennsylvania work, Franklin Chimney 7 LLC is registered as a Home Improvement Contractor, PA HIC #PA214853. You can ask for a current insurance certificate showing the insured business and coverage dates before work begins. Verify the Pennsylvania contractor registration.

The appliance and fuel, manufacturer instructions, chimney height, flue dimensions, connector, and required liner listing all matter. We measure the relevant parts and identify the proposed system in the written estimate. Insulation or other components are included when the chosen system and job scope call for them.

After you approve the scope, the crew prepares access, installs the specified liner and connections, and performs the checks required for that job. Timing and when the appliance can be used again depend on the system and any related work; we explain those steps in your project plan.

It may help when the liner is the cause, but smoke and draft problems can also come from blockage, sizing, the appliance, or other chimney conditions. We assess the likely cause before recommending a liner so the proposed work addresses the finding.

Product and workmanship coverage depend on the liner system and the work approved. Your written estimate identifies the applicable terms and any manufacturer documents so you can review coverage before installation.
