Chimneys that work – the right method for the right issue

Short answer: We handle chimney work such as slurry lining, flue liners and renovations. The right method depends on the chimney’s condition, your stove and the problem you want to solve.

We review the conditions on site and recommend a solution with clear boundaries so the chimney works safely long-term.

  • Slurry lining (when it is the right choice)
  • Flue liners (when a new channel is needed)
  • Masonry repairs and renovation

If it is related to the fireplace, see fireplaces & stoves.

Common chimney jobs

We work with sealing, slurry lining, flue liners, rebuilding and renovation of chimneys. The goal is better function, safer use and the right materials for the structure.

We help you understand what is required before we start.

Slurry lining – when is it right?

Slurry lining seals the inside of the chimney with a new layer. It can improve tightness and draft when the flue is worn.

We assess whether slurry lining is the right choice or if another solution fits better.

Flue liner – a new channel inside the chimney

Flue liners are used when a new, safe channel for smoke and gases is needed. This can be the right solution when the chimney is heavily worn or the stove requires it.

We help determine the right size and approach for your chimney.

Chimney sweep and approval

Chimney work often needs inspection and approval by a certified chimney sweep before use. It is a key safety step.

We can coordinate in the process, but approval is always done by the authorized inspector.

Chimney condition and materials

The chimney’s materials and previous repairs determine which method works. A solution that fits one chimney may be wrong for another.

We assess the structure and choose a method that performs over time.

Our process

We start with a free site visit to assess the chimney and the stove’s needs. You then receive a quote or cost estimate.

Once everything is clear we carry out the work and keep you updated throughout.

Before a site visit – good information helps

To give the right recommendation, please provide:

  • photos of the chimney and stove
  • a description of the issue (draft, moisture, cracks)
  • any previous work done
  • whether a chimney sweep has already been involved

Chimney FAQs

What is included in chimney work?

Chimney work can include slurry lining, flue liners, sealing, rebuilding and renovation. The right solution depends on the chimney condition and the stove’s requirements.

We assess on site and explain clearly what is included before work starts.

When is slurry lining the right choice?

Slurry lining is often right when the flue needs sealing and the chimney is worn but still functional. It can improve tightness and draft.

We assess whether slurry lining fits or if a flue liner is required.

When do you need a flue liner?

A flue liner is used when a new channel is needed to meet safety and performance requirements. It can be necessary with heavy wear or specific stove requirements.

We help choose the right size and approach for your chimney.

Is chimney inspection required?

Yes. Many chimney projects require inspection and approval by a certified chimney sweep before use. This is an important safety step.

We can coordinate in the process, but approval is always done by the authorized inspector.

What causes poor draft?

Poor draft can be caused by leaks, incorrect dimensions, obstructions in the flue or improper connection. Moisture and cracks can also affect performance.

We help identify the cause and recommend the right action.

Can you repair cracks in a chimney?

Yes. We can repair cracks and damage in the masonry. It is important to use materials that work with the existing structure.

We assess the damage and propose a durable repair.

Do you take small jobs?

Yes. We take both small fixes and larger renovations. Small jobs still require proper material knowledge to be done right.

Describe your needs and we will suggest the best approach.

What happens during a free site visit?

We review the chimney and stove on site, look for damage and discuss function and goals. That gives a solid basis for method and material choice.

We then provide a quote or cost estimate.

Do you work in Gothenburg and Northern Halland?

Yes. We work in Gothenburg, Kungsbacka, Varberg, Fjaras and Frillesas, plus nearby areas. We are based in Kungsbacka.

Contact us and we will confirm the best approach for your project.

Can you coordinate with a chimney sweep?

Approval is always done by the authorized sweep or inspector.
