What affects liner cost

  • Flue height — taller chimneys need more liner material.
  • Diameter — must match the appliance for safe draft.
  • Existing damage — crumbling flues need prep work.
  • Oil-to-gas conversion — if you switched fuels, the old flue size may be wrong; we check sizing as part of every liner quote.
