I called at 8 am because I didn't have any hot water. While I was still on the phone and they were…read moretelling me that I would get a call back to schedule a service call, I had another call come in from First Call telling me that someone would be here within 2 hours. Less than 2 hours later, a wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional tech arrived. He found the problem and fixed it. He then did a complete inspection of the plumbing in both units of my duplex. Wow. Service like this is simply outstanding.

I have written one or two reviews on First Call before. They have always been 5*. My 2* review…read moretoday is a reflection of my concern going forward. Paradoxically, the service we received yesterday from Morgan was maybe 6*. He is probably the best HVAC professional we have seen in our approx 30 years with First Call. But, he came from Lake Geneva and works for the company there that has been cobbled together with First Call by a private equity firm. Sadly, as we have experienced previously, private equity firms' focus on leveraging assets results in a reduction of organizational efficiency. The fact that Morgan had to drive from Lake Geneva is a reflection of that. First Call used to be a family-owned hugely customer focused organization. When we didn't hear from them this Spring Re AC tuneup, I called in May and was told they couldn't do it til August -- for AC! Difficult to believe. I'm afraid the responsive and always great attention we got from First Call is likely gone. Having said that, let me repeat that Morgan (from the "partner" company) was flat out outstanding. But it took him an hour to get here. That's not terribly efficient

I haven't been here in quite a while, but I wanted to give them a shout out and say what I know…read moreabout them. I cannot do them justice since they have many programs here to help members of our community that I haven't worked with. I have volunteered here a few times when I was a student through UW-Milwaukee. I helped bag groceries to be handed out to members of the community who needed help. They work very hard to create a balanced bag nutritionally each time such as protein, breakfast items, meat/ eggs, fruits/ veg, dessert (if they have any), soup, pasta/ rice, and a few other types of items I'm forgetting. When they have fresh fruits and vegetables they place them out for people to pick from. They also let people pick out bread items. The number of bags people receive depends on family size. They also have baby food items for those who need them. I also organized personal cleaning supplies (keep the good stuff, throw out the bad/ expired, put out the smaller stuff for people to pick out for free when they came to pick up food, etc). I thought this was really nice of them to have available, many people looked through the baskets once I started filling them. The staff is very kind to those who come in needing assistance and try to help. The area I worked in was basic but clean. They treat the community members that need help with respect (I've seen orgs where they don't treat people very well, this is not one of those orgs!). Great place to help the local community and for people to receive assistance. I've only scratched the surface as to what this nonprofit does for the community, check out their website. Time/ money/ personal donations brought here are not wasted!

Despite my being a fan of the ReStore, My experience at the Racine branch was underwhelming and…read moredisappointing. Their selection of meterials was adequate but desk staff was catty, rude, unhelpful, and much too into there gossiping to be of any help. I asked about any sales or promotions they should be having as most ReStores do and the person at the counter looked puzzeled and asked manager to explain to me his ruling on what doors where 20% off and what doors where 10% off bassed on his perceived value of the door that I would have chosen. I then overheard another costumer ask if they where ever going to have a sale, and the manager laughed out loud and replied "We don't have sales. We don't have to do what the other stores do!" in a sour, crunchy manner. I also heard the staff in back talking about some of the items that had been there for months would certainly move better and make the organization more money if they would only lower the prices. In the future I plan on not shopping at that ReStore as I don't go out of my way to have my stomach turn over due to bad energy!

Absolutely the BEST PLACE TO RESCUE. Hands down 100000%. I was very hesitant to adopt through them…read morebecause they had to come to the house but it was to make sure the adoption application was accurate. Plus the meet and greet with our other dog. We found our Max ( also known as Drift) at the adoption fair last Saturday at a pet store I read about on line. Leah and Mike were absolutely phenomenal with the process. They answered every question we had. $500 for the adoption fee was actually very reasonable, if you consider what they ( all dogs live in foster homes) have to do to feed the dogs, veterinary care, ect. We love our Max. Now if the cats can love him too. Thank you Woof gang rescue.
