They did a great job. Only complaint was a delay in service between the start and completion of the job. No one called to say they weren't coming back the next day. The weather was fine, but they did not show. They came back the following week to finish the job.

High's was quick to assess the firebox and recommend two possible courses of action. They explained clearly the reasoning for their assessment and recommendations. They were available to complete the work next day and offered a discount if we were able to accommodate, which we were. The work was done professionally - it is of high quality, and they were very neat / clean.

The chimney was inspected and repaired with a new stainless steel liner. The cracked terra cotta tiles were supposed to be removed as a part of the contract. They were not. I called to see why not and to receive a credit for this portion of the contract. My call was never returned. I hired a second more reputable company to review the work and to replace my gas logs. They told me there was no reason that the terra cotta could not have been removed.

They came out the day after I called, even during their busy season. They removed the bottom of the furnace and cleaned the entire flue going all the way up to the roof. They vacuumed and cleaned out some dead wasp remnants and assisted in unclogging my furnace. They replaced my furnace cap with a more durable, stainless steel cap, also. They went above and beyond for us and we were very appreciative.

Work went well and on schedule, and the rebuilt chimney looks great. They had to return to correct cracks that appeared in the crown after the cement had fully dried.

We have a wood stove that we use and they come once a year. We've been happy with them. They installed the wood stove and service it once a year.

High's did an outstanding job of replacing the chimney from the roof up.  The chimney was 38 years old and just wore out.  Professionalism was from the jump, the moment Gene pulled into the driveway.  I would not hesitate to recommend Gene and group to anyone who is looking to have work done.  High's also reset some loose tiles on my indoor wood stove and re-secured the flu.  THANX Gene for a job well done.............

Four years ago, we had High's re-do our chimney from the roof up and intall a new liner. About 2 months ago, High's calls out of the blue to offer their chimney cleaning service. So I mentioned there was white stuff on the brick and the caller instead sets up an appointment for an inspection. Luiz, the manager for High's came out, got on the roof and found cracks in the mortar on top. Luiz reminded me that it was all covered under their warranty. Two days later, he sent a team who scraped off the efforescence, fixed the cracks, and then sprayed waterproofing material on the whole chimney. All of this didn't cost us a cent, and I remember their original work was reasonably priced. I guess the take-away message is that I think High's Chimney Service really knows how to take care of their customers, even years down the road.

Came out one day to inspect and see what needed to be done - a lot!! My fireplaces hadn't had work on them in a long time and they were built in 1962. Came back on agreed day and did the work. When they left all was cleaned up and fireplace free of soot and ashes. Since they replaced the back wall in the living room fireplace it really looks great. For all the work they did I thought the price was quite good. At all times they were polite and explained everything they were going to do and why and answered all our questions to our satisfaction.
