We had a chimney fire and the insurance company is dealing with it. Cctv showed a cracked flue just at the turn and the grouting/cement joins between stacks are quite wide. Their solution is to put flexi liner in the chimney and replace our stove.
The guy delivering the new stove has got me worried saying that the flexi lining isn't a solution and that the buildings company from insurers should be taking down and rebuilding chimney (internal chimney two storey house)
My question is, will it be safe to use stove when fitted with flexi liner knowing there is a crack in the flue?
