Old stone farmhouse where previous owners burnt anything in the Rayburn (ie pieces of old kitchen worktop) we now have installed a liner in the chimney, but are still getting tar dripping down the walls, especially in the bedroom. do we need to take the plaster off back to the stone & clean?? It also drips on the Rayburn in the kitchen......the Rayburn hasn't been lit for weeks so its not heat but we have had lots of rain!
We have installed a liner and still have tar seeping through the bedroom wall...how do you fix that??

Um yeah, that's flammable fuel you know...the kind that burns a house down to the ground and puts a blow torch out the top of the chimney. Great job on the liner, now its time to call a Chimney Sweep or Chimney re-builder. Yikes.
