Guy was nice because he looked around my home and saw money. When I received the quote and asked how long it would take, no response was given. Big red flag-shady.

They arrived right on time and completed the job quickly without sacrificing quality. Not only were they skilled, but they were also personable and easy to work with. They removed the broken glass from my fireplace, replaced it with new glass in a short amount of time, and thoroughly cleaned up afterward. The fireplace looks like new again. I truly appreciate their excellent service and will definitely be using them again in the future. Highly recommended!

We recently experienced a chimney fire in our 1971 home shortly after moving in, which was…read moreincredibly stressful. We didn't realize the chimney had a large internal crack and would require a full replacement and relining. Chelsea's Chimney was fantastic from start to finish. The owner personally came out, inspected everything, and took the time to explain what was going on and reassure me that it could be fixed safely. That personal attention meant a lot during a pretty scary situation. After paying the deposit, they moved quickly, within a week we had an entirely new chimney system installed along with a new cap. The work included removing the old flue tiles and throat damper, installing a UL-listed stainless steel liner with a lifetime warranty, insulating the flue, parging the smoke chamber, and installing a new top tile and top-closing damper system. Everything was clearly explained as they worked, which I really appreciated. The total cost was $5,400, which felt very fair for the amount of work, quality, and peace of mind we received. The craftsmanship looks great, and we now feel confident using our fireplace safely. Highly recommend Chelsea's Chimney if you want knowledgeable professionals who stand by their work and keep you informed every step of the way.

Purchasing my current home and inquired about getting the chimney inspected and possibly cleaned…read more Home was 60 years old and oil furnance in use. Prior owners never had chimney cleaned or inspected. Met with Vince and upon inspection of chimney and the thimble connection access that was blocked off by cinder block wall recommend a demo of the wall and a stainless steel liner, and was given a quote. Got a couple more quotes in the spring and went with ChimneyTEK because of the inspection QUALITY and pricing of the quote. The demo work needed on the thimble connection threw off all quotes and given estimates from others that were pricey (sub out demo work) or poorly estimated (unnecessary add ins not needed). I called Vince SEVERAL times to discuss and go over the quote/work (not familiar with work involved and wanted to understand the what and why) each time Vince answered my questions and definitely had a better handle on the job (no subs) had experience on my thimble issue. Crew did a GREAT job, the demo work went better than I imagined. The stainless steel liner was really needed based upon seeing how blocked the thimble was 60-65% and all the soot removed from the chimney prior to installing the liner. This job was a learning experience for me and the job went a lot smoother than I anticipated (did not know what to expect). Proof of insurance also provided before job started. GREAT JOB! Highly recommended this company A+++

Be CAREFUL! Very friendly owner has apparently retired. Now…read morethe fireplace Chimney.com sold has failed after just 2 seasons. The problem is not our pilot or gas, it's the solenoid gas valve part that Chimney.com installed. (A master plumber has identified the issue 100%, but doesn't do gas repairs.) Since the whole device is controlled by remote, we know we did not break it--we never touched it ever, but the like-new fireplace did not come on this year. We were charged full price for the unit, which should have lasted for many years. Now Chimney.com is now wanting another $300 just two years later to repair. Paid a lot for a new unit. Chimney.com they says they are not responsible for quality of their products and will charge for labour to "evaluate" the issue. They act very folksy/ocal--until there's a problem, then they cut you loose. Be forewarned that you need to be lucky because they don't stand by their products sold. This feels scammy.

This incredible company provided the most exceptional service I have ever encountered. After…read moresearching Virginia, DC and Maryland for a reliable gas fireplace seller/installer, I was referred to Tiffany and Jimmy. This company had every other beat in terms of price and service by a landslide. First, their prices are significantly lower than the competition as they have their own gas fitters and electricians. Most other companies contract out this work which adds a lot to the cost. They also have a beautiful showroom where you can see fireplaces before buying. Second, the service was unparalleled. Every single step was carefully explained and communicated. The technicians were on time, pleasant, careful, clean and skilled. It simply could not have been a better experience. This is a company that provides old-fashioned standards of excellence at incomparable prices. You will not be disappointed if you are lucky enough to do business with them. I consider it a tremendous stroke of luck that I had the good fortune to find and work with them. I think you will, too.

I received five star treatment from start to finish. Called Joe on a Friday of a holiday weekend,…read moregot an estimate on Tuesday and the work was done on Thursday. It could have been done on Wednesday, but it rained all day. The pricing was so fair that I didn't even need to negotiate. I had not looked into chimney repair before, but a bird entering your house like it's Santa will make you consider installing a chimney cap. Joe explained chimney caps to me like I was five years old, in the most respectful way. He explained how the chimney would need two caps because usually the furnace vents through the chimney. He explained how to check for myself in the basement. He was right. He also explained the chimney crown and that it needed to be replaced. I wondered how he could know that since no one climbed to the chimney during the estimate. I asked for pictures before the work started. The crown had cracks but served the house well for 80 years. He was right again. His team showed up, explained the scope of work, gently moved our plants out of the way, and got to work. We also had several bricks that needed to be replaced. That required the team to remove the broken brick, spread mortar, and install new bricks. They match the house well. I napped in front of the fireplace while they worked. I could only hear light tapping from the brick removal process. They sent photos while the work was in progress. Great photos that I will share with you below. Joe and his team exceeded my expectations. The hardest part of getting the chimney repaired was submitting payment - because no one asked for money upfront. 10/10 I would recommend Victorian Chimney Services for your chimney upkeep needs.

The High's technician did not inspect the fire box or damper. He was rude and extremely unprofessional. And clearly had some type bias. We found it astonishing that the company invoiced us for $285.00 covering the 10 minute inspection. On March 20, 2026, we had our chimney and fireplace inspected and cleaned by a top rated DMV chimney service. The new company spent 2.5 hrs at our home and informed us that they needed to clean the flu First in order for them to make a professional assessment. And did not see any need to issue any refrain from use order upon completion of the services rendered, as was done by the High's Chimney technician. Imagine a company conducting a ten minute inspection and then stating we needed over $15k in Chimney repairs. Our legal counsel will file formal complaints with all relevant regulatory agencies.

The problem took some diagnosing and a follow-up appointment to make sure that the venting of the chimney was corrected.They also did some insulating and that greatly helped with the down draft of cold air that had been pouring in from the fire-place. Meaghan was very helpful in instructing us in how to use the fireplace, since we had never had gas logs in any of our previous houses. Everyone from Complete Chimneys was completely friendly and professional. The price was fair, reasonable, and close to the original estimate. I highly recommend Complete Chimneys, and would certainly use them again.
