They offer a nice selection of units and have access to different custom finishes. However, customer service has been as issue for us.

Two years ago, I noticed a crack in the chimney brick mortar and realized there were problems. I…read morecalled Four Winds because I liked their TV ads. A Chimney Sweep and technician came over and showed us a lot of pictures detailing the damage and explained everything to us. A lot of trust is involved as I am not going on the steep roof to touch this chimney. Once we made the repair appointment, Four Winds took care of everything. The worker and supervisor kept us informed as the work progressed. I've had them back for the first annual inspection and everything is working as it should be. The office staff are easy to work with and scheduled annual check-ups on my new chimney. I feel their pricing is fair and reasonable. Why did I wait 2 years to write a review? I'm used to city contractors letting me down. So I've been waiting for something to go wrong. It hasn't!! This company does what it says it will do and they do it well. A plus? Every time they visit I get to shake hands with a real Chimney Sweep and receive blessings of good luck. How can you go wrong?

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!

I have been remiss in posting a review about this place. About 8 months ago, I remodeled my kitchen…read moreand needed a large amount of new countertops. I wanted quartz, and if you know anything about quartz, you know it can get pricey quick. I shopped around to almost every store in town that was Google-able. I went to a giant warehouse near downtown where you can look at huge slabs up close and in person and, of course, found a really expensive stone that I just loved. I took this picture to many people to see who could obtain it. Imperial could. And cheaper than others. But what really gives them 5 stars is that the owner (husband and wife team) told me she could get a really similar stone for even less. I was wary to buy something I hadn't seen so she made some calls and had the supplier bring a giant slab to her store just for me-- at no obligation! Their storeroom isn't impressive but they do have many large slabs in the back, as well as some remnants you can look through for smaller things such as vanities. And when I saw the new, and cheaper, stone I was very excited. It was almost exactly the same but would save me hundreds, if not thousands of dollars (I cannot remember the exact savings). Since we were behind on our kitchen renovation, I was worried about getting the countertops measured in case something changed. The husband came to measure and was very easy going about the whole process and reassured me small changes we were considering wouldn't be an issue. The installation went well; their installers were very polite and worked quickly. There were a few minor issues that they came back and resolved quickly. Now, the countertops are still gorgeous and there have been no issues. Included with my purchase was a free stainless steel, undermount, very deep and wide single sink. I had originally planned on buying one elsewhere so that saved me another few hundred dollars. I was a bit worried though as I'd read reviews online about some sinks scratching easily but this one does not. And the installers showed me a trick: if it does get a minor scratch, use some steel wool and gently rub it away! When I need stone for my bathroom countertop, I will definitely be calling on them!

Excellent customer service and workmanship. Great local business. Please give these guys an…read moreopportunity to earn your business.

My girlfriend and I went back and forth with each other regarding which style we liked better and the young, salesman kept disagreeing with what I was saying regarding color selection. He wanted to be right, a young man with an ego problem. My girlfriend and I literally agreed on a fireplace we liked and he interjected saying he didn't feel what we chose would match our current fireplace bricks properly. We liked it and we wanted to buy it. This guy hasn't seen our fireplace, we didn't even bring pictures. We were giving a lot of social cues that we didn't want his opinion but he either couldn't see that we wanted to be left alone to decide for ourselves or didn't care. In an effort to avoid another trip to ANOTHER fireplace store, I looked at him and said "Have you ever talked yourself out of a sale"? His response was no. I said, "You're about to". Now, at this point, any salesperson with half a brain would have shut their mouth and wrote the order for the $7,300 fireplace we wanted to buy. Not this guy. After I asked him if he had ever talked himself out of a sale, he stared at me like he was going to fight me. He didn't like that we wanted to decide for ourselves what we wanted, apparently, he didn't feel we were valuing his opinion enough. So, he stepped toward me like he wanted to fight and told us to "Get the F$%# out of "My Store". So, I think he was either the owner or the owner's kid. He literally threw us out of the store moments after we decided which fireplace we wanted to buy. We even gave him an opportunity to just shut his mouth and his ego wouldn't allow him to do that. This is why retail is dying. We're ordering our fireplace online. The sales experience was horrendous and I'm actually glad they showed their true colors before we gave them any money.

I am not known for poor reviews but this is one of them…read more Hired Isaac a couple of years ago for an inspection and cleaning on our furnace, tankless water heater and air conditioner. Was pleased with the service so we bought one of their expensive maintenance plans. First of all, you have to call them every year to return for a cleaning and inspection. They should call us to schedule service thru their expensive plan. Fine. We are considering moving so I called for an inspection and cleaning. They wouldn't do the A/C bc it was February. Again, fine. Well the nightmare began. Now keep in mind everything worked perfectly prior to this service. Again, cleaning and inspection. Tech started inspection. Soon I heard a half hour of very loud metallic banging. I asked how it was going and was told he was trying to free a part to clean and check it. In the end, couldn't get it. Specialist had to return. Specialist returned and said igniter was bad. Changed it and it cost $162 which was the cost after the $600 maintenance plan previously mentioned. Pretty quickly we noticed more trouble. No hot water for a number of minutes. You may say no big deal but try running your bath for 3 to 5 minutes bf you get hot water. This happens on every faucet too. So we called again. Tech came and now found a bunch of gas leaks and the heat exchanger was bad. Cost $300 after their wonderful $ 600 maintenance plan. They also repaired some of the gas leaks. Said RGE had to fix another one. RGE came and said no leak. Hmmmmm... And I can't help to wonder how much of this is a result of the first Tech banging away full force on a very intricate and fragile piece of equipment. And we don't even have the new heat exchanger installed yet!! No call with an update, no call to schedule appt. Nothing. 2 months ago we called for an inspection. $500 later (not including the investment in the $600 maintenance plan) we have a non properly functioning water heater, no appointment and no plan. So much for hiring a big company for expertise, service and peace of mind. Ill update when, I mean if this gets resolved.

It's weird that I felt a sense of relief when I read all those negative, one-star reviews--at least…read morewe're not alone in having been taken advantage of, treated poorly, spoken to rudely and with dismissiveness... Isaac's lack of concern for their customers since they were bought out is, frankly, breathtaking. That's bad enough, but perhaps worse is their practice of upselling vulnerable customers. They quoted us a price for a new tankless water heater that almost knocked us over. We ended up going with someone else for roughly half the price! Then they sold us a replacement air filter for the furnace that turned out to be a hospital-grade system that was way, way beyond our needs--with a price tag to match. Yes, it's on us that we fell for it, but it was during the pandemic and Isaac took advantage of the widespread fears many of us had for our safety. We have been Isaac customers for decades, and we have been GoldCare members for at least half that time. We have paid Isaac tons of money, for new furnaces, a new air conditioner, a tankless water heater, a dehumidifier, and an air filter. We have paid the monthly fee for their service plan. In all those years, there were only two times that we needed anything other than annual routine maintenance. Once was when the tankless water heater stopped working late in the evening. Rather than send someone out, per our contract, they coached us on the phone to fix it ourselves! We were successful, so we chalked it up to a kind-of-funny experience and moved on. The other time was when our fairly new furnace wouldn't come on--on a very cold day. We called, and a rather distant and nonchalant call center rep told us that it would be four days before anyone could come out. We reminded him that we were GoldCare members, and were supposed to get priority service. He didn't care...and let us know that. When we suggested that perhaps we would cancel our premium plan since it didn't seem to get us anywhere, well, that was fine with him, too. He would forward us the cancellation forms. No attempt at customer service, no attempt at customer retention. All this led us to look around for another contractor. We were lucky to have found someone we can trust. But one of the surprises we got was how much the annual maintenance of our air filter would cost. That's when we learned that Isaac had upsold us to a hospital-grade air filtration system that was way beyond what we needed. But the best was yet to come. We called Isaac today to cancel our GoldCare and SilverCare memberships, and our annual maintenance appointment. Once they got through leaving us on hold, hanging up on us, transferring us to another hold, we finally got through. Nick asked us, somewhat perfunctorily, why we were cancelling. We told him what we have related above. He had no reaction whatsoever, expressed no apology, no regret at losing us. But he couldn't wait to tell us that the GoldCare agreement for the very expensive air filter had just started and we were stuck in it for another 23 months. He would not even acknowledge our request for consideration, given all we had been through. Just kept repeating that we were stuck with paying them for another 23 months whether we used them or not. The most he could do was send us a copy of the agreement that we already had in front of us. We originally signed with Isaac when they were locally owned and had a well-deserved reputation for being part of the community and genuinely caring about their customers. Things changed when they were acquired by a private equity firm. They lost their focus on their customers and their community and became ruthless and rapacious. We are glad to bring our business to locally-owned firm from now on.
