Outstanding service just completed at my house thank so much Brennan, Jonathan and crew. Brennan sat with me twice to go over what was a priority to repair and what could wait given budget constraints which I appreciated. Jonathan and his crew (Edgar and Jorge Portillo) were fabulous—competent, helpful, efficient. Jonathan explained each day everything he was doing through both pictures and showing me on site. I also appreciated that he would call me every morning to let me know when he and his team would arrive to work. They were hard working, short lunch break then back to work till late and completed everything as planned. They cleaned the site and went beyond i had expected in terms of cleaning of roof and gutters etc. Really outstanding job. They were recommended to me by a friend who had her chimneys done by Winston and I would be delighted to recommend them as well. I liked that Brennan also followed up with me to make sure i was satisfied with his crew’s work and if there was anything else they could have done better—-I said they were really great. I must also thank the staff who answered my calls at their headquarters. So knowledgeable, helpful, and problem solvers. Thank you so much for the whole team.

Winston chimney was so professional. Brendan explained in detail what needed to be done, constantly showing me pictures of my chimney and told me how they were going to repair it.Their team, Ever, Ernesto and Oscar, arrived to start the work on time. They were so polite, helpful and very professional. They kept me updated on the progress. They were definitely experts in their field. I would highly recommend everyone that came to repair my chimney.

Winston's was very thorough with the chimney sweep service and pointed out things I should keep in mind regarding future maintenance. I very much appreciated Ryan's superb help and advice! Winston's is definitely my source for future maintenance and I would recommend them without any hesitation. Thanks!!

We scheduled a free consultation with Winston's to diagnose a leak we are having below the firebox in the basement when it rains. Brian and Andrew arrived on time. They were very pleasant and knowledgeable. By asking a lot of good questions and inspecting the area carefully, Brian determined that the likely source of the problem was where our foundation meets the brick chimney. I was told that Winston's does not or cannot do foundation work, which is fair. I was referred to another company for assistance. I feel very satisfied and relieved to finally know what is likely causing the problem. We will definitely hire Winston's when we convert our wood burning fireplace to gas. They were awesome. Thanks Brian and Andrew!

Brennan and Jean came out today for my annual wood fireplace maintenance. They were both professional, laid down drop clothes, and cleaned up the area. I would definitely recommend this company for your fireplace needs.

I needed some significant work on my chimney, inside and out, and was recommended to Winston's Chimney Service after having obtained a couple of quotes from other companies, neither of which I was happy with for various reasons. I'm so glad I went with Winston's Chimney Service. The whole experience, from the initial sales call to the scheduling and completion of the work, was excellent. The team, lead by Jonathan were very professional - they always called me to let me know when they expected to arrive, kept me informed of progress, explained things when I had questions and always cleaned up thoroughly. I can wholeheartedly recommend Winston's Chimney Service based on my experience.

I had a great experience with Winston's at every step of the way. CJ was very helpful in scheduling and setting us up on the admin side. Daniel Flores and the rest of the crew were amazing. They were super respectful of my home, and they worked extra hours to get the job done in one day. Once they got into my wall, there was more carpentry worked needed than originally anticipated, but they diligently found a solution. Couldn't have been nicer. They needed an extra part to finish my rain cap instillation, but we're back with it the next day with no fuss.Ryan Hall came out to do the final inspection of the work. He was super knowledgeable and professional - taking the time to explain everything to me. He gave me tips on use, maintenance, and longevity.Great experience from top to bottom!

Winston's provides customer service at the highest level. During the inspections and cleaning, Dan and Dylan were effective, neat and thorough. Dan was generous with his knowledge and made helpful recommendations on ways to improve chimney and dryer ventilation. I sincerely appreciate the team's efforts. Many thanks!

Great Experience A+, would recommend/use again. Had a crew come by last week to inspect our chimney if it was OK/safe to use in our 1960s home. Our lead tech, Brennan, was very punctual to the appointment time and also explained every step of the way, as well as showing the live camera feed inspection and adding context. The detailed summary/findings report and recommendations was clear and helpful.

Very good experience with Winston’s! I had a couple companies come out and look at my fireplace/chimney and Winstons was the most professional, knowledgeable and communicative. I like their well-documented quite with pictures and explanations. Dan was the one who came out for the inspection and he is as good as it gets. Also, the work turned out very well and Edgar and Nelson had an eye for quality. Very much appreciate Winston’s and they will be my goto for all work fireplace and chimney related. Thank you!

After purchasing our home last year and knowing there were issues with the chimney and fireplace, I reached out to Winston’s when I was dissatisfied with a quote provided by a different vendor. During my initial chat with the woman who arranged the first inspection, I could tell that the company employed honest and transparent employees.From the moment Brennan arrived to provide an initial assessment, I knew the staff was competent. I appreciated him carefully answering my many questions about what options I had to get the chimney up to speed. He also coordinated on phone calls with an HVAC company, as our furnace and water heater were also replaced at the same time.One issue prior to installation popped up that I elevated to management, and I received a prompt phone call. I genuinely left the conversation feeling satisfied, respected, and valued as a customer.Next, Edgar and Oscar did the hard part—they removed the crumbling mortar inside the chimney, relined it, and repaired the crown. While they couldn’t salvage the original damper, they cleaned up thoroughly and didn’t leave a trace of their visit. They worked efficiently together, and I was pleased to hear much laughter between the two of them throughout the days they were here!Finally, Todd, their master gas-fitter, and his helper, John, worked their magic. Not only did Todd ensure our gas pipes and fittings were up to code (he also installed two new gas shut-off valves)—he also looked out for us. Out of sheer luck and his thoughtfulness, he salvaged a set of used gas logs that a different client no longer wanted. To us, the logs were an upgrade, and we really appreciated him truly going “above and beyond.”Overall, we received courtesy calls with arrival windows before each visit, and all quotes were put in writing. I also received follow-up calls after initial visits to check in and see if I had any issues or concerns. My husband is active duty military and presently deployed, and they honored a military discount, too.I’m so very glad we moved forward with these repairs, and we’ll reach out to Winston’s again when we need the fireplace serviced in the future.Highly recommend—and I have high standards!
