Your Local Chimney Liners Specialists in Queens, NY

With gas heating about 75% of Queens homes, most chimneys here spend the winter venting a boiler or furnace. Gas exhaust carries water vapor that can condense in a cold, oversized masonry flue and eat at the mortar. Oil burners leave soot and acidic deposits. When a heating system is replaced, the existing flue may no longer match the new appliance, and a liner is often the fix. Our local crew measures the flue and the appliance, then installs a liner sized to vent it properly.

Chimney Liners for Queens Homes

A housing boom began in Middle Village in the 1920s, and builders had put up 150 single-family row houses there by 1928. Clay liners from that era are often cracked or missing joints, which lets exhaust reach the brick and is a common reason to reline.

After World War II, marshland west of Cross Bay Boulevard in Howard Beach was filled in for Cape Cod-style houses, and high ranches followed in the 1960s and 1970s. Those chimneys were built for the furnaces of their day, and many now vent much smaller, more efficient boilers that need a narrower liner.

Our crew installs liners in Middle Village, Howard Beach, Ridgewood, Maspeth and Jamaica.

When to Call Us

  • Cracked or missing flue tiles
  • You are adding a stove or insert
  • Your boiler or water heater was replaced
  • Pieces of tile in the firebox
  • Draft problems you cannot explain

How the Job Goes

  1. Check the flue

    We find the size and condition of the flue and what is venting into it.

  2. Size the liner

    The liner is sized to the appliance it serves, not just to the chimney.

  3. Install

    A stainless steel liner is run from the top and connected at the bottom.

  4. Cap and test

    We cap the top and confirm the draft before we leave.

Chimney Liners Questions in Queens

How do I know if my Queens chimney needs a liner?
Common signs are flakes of tile or mortar at the cleanout, water stains on the chimney inside the house, or a new high-efficiency boiler. We look inside the flue and check its size against the appliance before recommending anything.
Can a liner be installed without opening up walls?
In most chimneys, yes. A stainless steel liner is fed down from the roof through the existing flue and connected at the bottom to the boiler or water heater. Walls stay closed unless the flue has a sharp offset or a blockage we cannot clear.
Why does the liner size matter?
A flue that is too big or too small for the appliance can draft poorly and build up deposits. The appliance maker states what it needs.
