Chimney Cleaning

The lead sweep is always certified; no rookies practicing at your house. We use huge vacuums to make sure there's NO dust in your house. Then we treat your chimney (for FREE!) with CreAway Chimney Deoderizing Treatment, with also removes 3rd Degree creosote. Technicians are CSIA and/or NFI Certified.

Chimney Repair

Sweeps can repair your crown, waterproof your chimney, repair the back wall of your firebox. For larger repairs, we have dedicated masonry crews.

Chimney Lining

We can safely say that we have more lining experience, by a huge margin, than any other company in the DC Metro Area. Since 1981, High's has installed over 60 miles of liner into 10,000 homes.

We use only Pro*Tect Chimney Liner or Ventinox Chimney Liner. Both are backed by Lifetime guarantees.

Masonry Work

We have professional masons on staff. Not just a "jack of all trades with a trowel in his hand." Doug Curry, for example, has 40 years experience. Matching brick or mortar color is a specialty.

Chimney Covers

Keep birds and squirrels out of the house, and sparks out of the gutters or off your neighbor's roof. The biggest problem is with rain coming down the flue and damaging the masonry inside the house... and the nasty smell of damp creosote!

Top Sealing Dampers

Save as much as $800 a year- $200-$400 is common even in tight home with a leaky damper. Stop uncomfortable drafts across the floor. The single largest source of heat loss in your house is the fireplace. Top Sealing Dampers are easy to operate and very, very cost effective.

Dryer Vent Cleaning

With over 2000 dryer vent fires annually, your dryer vent is probably more dangerous than your chimney. We use RoVac cleaning equipment, and technicians are CDET certified.

New Gutters and Gutter Guards Installed

We feature Leaf Proof Gutter Guards, the nation's fastest growing gutter guard company. This all aluminum product does not involve nailing into your roof. Guaranteed not to clog or we will clean your gutters for free. We can put on new gutters too if you need them.

Air Duct Cleaning

No cutting corners.  We still use the most powerful equipment we can, and we remove every vent.  Our huge compressor delivers constant pressure, no matter how much we use it.  We use the most powerful vac we can buy and still get close to your home (we used to use the big truck mount vac, but they loose way too much suction because of the long hose runs)  It takes more effort and better equipment to do it right, but that's how we do it at High's.
