We have been providing quality chimney care to residents in the Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia areas with our service excellence guarantee.

Contact us for information or an appointment and Winston's Chimney Service will provide quality, professional service for all your chimney and fireplace needs.

We have technicians at Winston's Chimney Service that are fully certified to install fireplaces, woodstoves, wood stove inserts and just about any chimney appliance. If you currently have an older model, you can increase the efficiency of your fireplace and the amount of heat it generates by installing a wood stove or wood stove insert. Whether you live in Montgomery County, Prince Georges County, Fairfax County, Arlington County, Alexandria or Washington, DC, we have skilled technicians nearby.

There's never been a better time to switch to a gas appliance. Whether you're looking to add a new gas fireplace to your home, convert your fireplace to gas with a gas insert, or add a set of gas logs to your hearth, you'll find that today's appliances are attractive, efficient, and incredibly easy to use. Gone are the days of limited, bulky options - today you'll find an almost endless number of choices - from modern see-thru fireplaces to classic gas stove-style inserts. You can even customize your media, so if traditional-looking logs don't fit your aesthetic, that's no problem.

The truth is that your dryer vent is more likely to get clogged and cause a fire than your fireplace or chimney. One reason this happens is we ignore the dryer vents because we can't imagine that our dryer might cause any damage, like a fire, to our homes, but it does. When we clean a dryer vent, we remove the lint buildup in the vent that leads to the outside, not just the lint trap. This lint buildup decreases air flow, which can shorten the life of your dryer, extend the drying times for your clothes, and may potentially cause a fire.

But like all appliances, gas fireplaces, inserts, and logs need to be professionally installed and routinely serviced to ensure they're working as they should for as long as they should. We're here to help our neighbors in Maryland, DC, and Virginia with that. Hey, we know you have options, and you're wondering, "Why should I trust this company to take care of my gas service needs?" Well, the answer is simple: We have the experience, knowledge, and commitment to customer safety and satisfaction to ensure you're 100% pleased with the end results.

We are located in Arlington, VA and have been servicing the Washington DC Metro, Northern Virginia and parts of Maryland since 1978 with quality chimney services, including chimney sweeping, fireplace and chimney inspections and repairing fireplaces and chimneys, We also service and clean dryer vents in all of our service areas and we clean gutters in our Virginia locations. Winston's believes in educating our technicians above and beyond everything else. We empower our staff with certifications and training as well as providing quality customer service so they can take care of any problem, maintenance or repair.

We have heard a lot of concerns in our 35-year history about the lack of regulation for Chimney Sweeps in the U.S. We've been told it's hard to tell which company or chimney sweep has the experience and credentials to do the job correctly. That is just one reason Winston's Chimney Services has been involved with the NCSG, CSIA, NFI, F.I.R.E. and other regional associations to establish within the industry some on-going certifications that require CEU hours and hands-on training to acquire the specialized knowledge and experience.
