Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Redan’s Preferred Chimney Liner & Rebuild Company

Redan homeowners don’t call us because we’re flashy. They call because their neighbor on Phillips Road did, or their cousin in the Mountain Park area, and word in eastern DeKalb County travels slow but sure. We’ve earned that reputation by showing up when we say, documenting every inspection with photos the homeowner can see, and standing behind our work with the Redan Fireplace Services 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing, no arguing.

Our technicians know the difference between a traditional masonry chimney and the zero-clearance metal units that dominate Redan’s housing stock. That matters because a crew trained only on brick can misdiagnose a prefab firebox failure or install the wrong liner spec, and then you’re paying twice. We carry Olympia Chimney and DuraFlex liner inventories sized for both systems, so we’re not ordering parts and making you wait.

Most calls from the 30074 ZIP code reach us within 30 minutes during business hours, and our background-checked, uniformed technicians are typically on-site the same day or next. Russell Haines has built this company since 1984 on one principle: we’ll be there when we say.

Our Chimney Liner & Rebuild Services in Redan

Stainless Steel Liner Installation

A stainless steel liner is the right fix when your existing clay tile liner has cracked from thermal shock or age, or when a factory-built metal flue has rusted through. In Redan’s 1970s and 1980s subdivisions, we install DuraFlex and Olympia Chimney stainless liners rated for wood, gas, and pellet appliances. A typical stainless steel liner installation in Redan runs $2,200-$3,800 including the liner, insulation, top plate, and proper connection to your appliance. We pull a Level-2 camera inspection first so you see exactly why the old liner failed.

Flexible Liner for Tight Flue Passages

Some of Redan’s older ranch homes have offset flue passages or chimney thimbles that won’t accept a rigid liner. A flexible liner navigates those bends without compromising draft performance. We size these with a combustion analysis, not guesswork, because an undersized flexible liner in a gas appliance can cause carbon monoxide spillage. Flexible liner installations in Redan typically cost $1,800-$3,200. Our technicians complete most in one visit.

Liner Replacement for Failed Factory-Built Units

This is where Redan’s housing stock gets specific. Those factory-built metal fireplaces installed during the eastward suburban expansion were rated for 20-30 years of service. They’re now 40-50 years old. We regularly arrive at homes near Redan Park to find the outer metal housing rusted through from decades of Georgia humidity, the refractory panels cracked, and the damper frozen shut. Liner replacement for these units, when the chassis is still sound, runs $1,500-$2,800. When the entire firebox has failed, we discuss a full zero-clearance unit replacement instead.

Partial and Full Chimney Rebuild

When moisture has destroyed the chimney structure itself, we rebuild. A partial rebuild addresses our Chimney Cap & Crown in Redan, upper courses of brick, and flue termination, common where freeze-thaw cycles and humid summers have spalled the masonry. A full rebuild is rare but necessary when the chimney has separated from the house or the firebox has collapsed. Partial rebuilds in Redan run $3,500-$6,500; full rebuilds start around $8,500 and scale with height and access. We use professional-grade materials from Copperfield and Famco for crowns, caps, and flashing, and we document every stage with photos.

Trusted Brands We Service in Redan

We don’t substitute builder-grade materials to hit a price point. Our trucks carry Olympia Chimney and DuraFlex liner inventories in the diameters and lengths most common to Redan’s prefab and masonry systems, plus Copperfield and Famco components for crowns, caps, and termination assemblies. That means when your technician arrives, they’re not measuring and ordering; they’re installing. Fast turnaround matters in Redan, where a failed liner in January can mean a cold house or a risky improvised heating setup. Every part we use meets or exceeds NFPA 211 standards, and we show you the labels.

Common Chimney Liner & Rebuild Problems We See in Redan Homes

• Rusted-through prefab firebox housings. In Redan’s 1970s and 1980s subdivisions, the outer metal shell of factory-built fireplaces has sat in Georgia’s humid air for 40-50 years. Homeowners often discover this only when a routine inspection reveals daylight visible through rust holes, or when the firebox starts dripping rusty water into the hearth.
• Cracked clay tile liners from thermal shock. The brick ranch homes built during Redan’s suburban expansion often have original clay flue liners that were never designed for decades of use. A single chimney fire, or even repeated heating and cooling, can split them. Once cracked, they channel heat into surrounding framing, a genuine fire hazard that requires immediate liner replacement.
• Efflorescence and spalling from moisture intrusion. Redan’s humid subtropical climate means chimneys absorb moisture year-round, even when not in use. White powdery efflorescence on exterior brick signals water moving through the masonry, and spalling (flaking brick faces) follows. Left alone, this destroys the chimney structure and demands partial or full rebuild.
• Frozen or rusted damper assemblies. Because Redan winters are mild, many homeowners use their fireplaces only occasionally or not at all. Dampers sit closed for years in humid conditions, rusting solid or warping so they no longer seal. A stuck damper wastes energy and can allow smoke spillage, and replacement is often part of a broader liner rebuild.
