I had a great experience with 4 winds Chimney service. First time, but I have recommended them 3…read moretimes already. We needed an inspection and cleaning which revealed some significant repairs. We booked it and from beginning to end, it was smooth sailing with them. They consistently told me what was going on, where there technicians were and how much longer the work would be, each day. We had several different crews at different stages in the process and each and every one was great! They showed up on time, text to let us know they were coming, set up protective plastic sheets in the house, wore boot covers while in the house and worked hard each day. For all the work that they did, it was well worth every penny! Once complete, the work is fantastic and now we are enjoying our fireplace. Thank you 4 winds chimney!

Furthermore, out of approximately six companies consulted, yours was the only one to state that the chimney would not pass inspection, whereas other firms performed more comprehensive assessments, including removing the cap for a thorough internal review.

The picture showed the skylight frame separated and he fixed/repaired. Using his underlayment paper and my roofing shingles left over from a reroofing job performed 8 years ago, he tore out the old paper and reshingled. TG also installed a bathroom exhaust the same day. Very happy with the immediate service and extra work TG performed. We've several downpours since then and no problems. Very fair prices without gouging because of my circumstances.

The last one was the pellet stove insert and the work was done by David Smart. Hands down the most professional, well-thought-out, and careful install I've ever had done. Even better, after using the insert a half dozen times: no issues! no callbacks! I'm hoping that David will be available to do annual maintenance because based on my experience with much less reliable installers, I know I can rely on his expertise and attention to detail. Thank you, David!

So mid Nov comes, David arrives and cleans the FP, charges us several hundred dollars and 5 minutes after he leaves it goes off again. I called immediately and left a message. A woman said they needed to order a part. We've called half a dozen times since then and get no response. It's been weeks and no one has even given us a single update. We either get the answering machine or a woman tells us she'll let David know we called. I'm so very frustrated over this. We've had this gas fireplace for many years and have never had a service issue with the former owner. I really miss having it on!

They showed up early every morning and worked until dark, barely taking any breaks at all. Every night they cleaned up the work site, even vacuuming debris out of the bushes. Foreman Javier was on site and working himself almost all of the time and was often the last person here in the evenings, inspecting the day's work and cleaning up. Their bid was on the lower end of the ones we received, but I can't imagine any contractor doing a better job. You will not be disappointed if you hire them! They are reliable, efficient, honest, and very skilled at what they do.

Here are a few examples: - They did not tell me they would be needing to use my neighbor's driveway to access the chimney. While I was out they knocked on the neighbor's door demanding they vacate their driveway. - They ended up dropping a brick on my neighbor's new car. They did pay for the repairs. - When almost complete with the work, they casually mentioned that the chimney had not been repaired to city code. Now I need to have it rebuilt. Again.
