Older masonry chimneys are lined with clay tiles stacked one on top of another. Over the years the mortar between them cracks and washes out, and once there are gaps the flue no longer holds smoke where it belongs — heat and gases can reach the brick and the framing around it. The old fix was to tear the chimney open and relay the tiles. Resurfacing coats the inside of the flue instead, filling every joint and leaving a smooth sealed surface, all from the top down. Same result, no demolition.

Common Questions
It depends on what the camera finds. Resurfacing is the right answer when the tiles are still in place and the trouble is cracked joints or a worn surface. If tiles are missing, broken through, or shifted out of line, resurfacing is not the honest fix, and I will tell you that with the photo in front of you.
I run the camera through the flue before and after, and you look at both. That is the whole reason to do it this way. You should not have to take anyone’s word for what is happening fifteen feet up a dark flue.
Usually heat. Clay expands fast when a hot fire hits a cold flue, and the joints are the weakest point, so a chimney fire can open them up in a single night. Water does it slowly instead: it gets in through a failed crown or a missing cap, sits in a hairline crack, and works it wider every time the temperature swings.
