I have been so very pleased with James Winters and Winters Stoves. James is very good at answering questions and returning texts and phone calls. We just had a new cast iron propane stove installed, and the process went very smoothly. The technicians, Mark and Ethan, were just the best. They are knowledgeable and so personable. They were able to quickly resolve a small fan issue. They went out of their way to stop by to help. That's quality service! I heartily recommend Winters Stove in Sonora. read more

Excellent service. Friendly. Prompt. Technicians were here between the hours told over the phone. Job was done neatly and clean. I look forward to using them again. read more

Great service and communication! Would recommend to others with stove and dryer vent cleaning needs.

Both the employees were very knowledgeable and efficient. They went well and beyond the other company I used the last couple of years. They found a blockage that was not caught 3 months ago when I had it cleaned before the season. They even cleaned the stoves window. After living here for three years, it's like I'm wearing glasses and seeing clearly for the first time at the fireplace lol!! read more

I have a very difficult fireplace to clean. I had it cleaned in November by a different company and had problems with it right from the start.. By January it was impossible to use. It would smoke so badly it set off my smoke alarms. I called Winters and immediately noticed a vast difference. Righty from the start the fireplace performance was greatly improved. The other company did not use their brushes nearly as strenuously, they refused to climb onto the roof to check the screen. and they did not even own the super powerful vacuum that Winters used . The two men from Winters who came out, understood how my Swedish fireplace with pizza oven works and did everything right. They were very professional. neat and very friendly. I will be using them exclusively from now on. They did an exemplary job!!!. read more

I needed to purchase a stove to provide a primary heating source for my home. I contacted Winters Stove Works to research my options. The staff at Winters reviewed options with me and recommended a Quadrafire pellet stove insert. I decided to go with their recommendation. Their installation crew did a great job. They were friendly and efficient and completed the install with a high degree of craftsmanship. I have been very happy with the stove. I use it every day and have had no problems with it. All of my interactions with staff from Winters have been very cordial and professional. I could tell that they take a lot of pride in their work and it shows. read more

Fellas were up to wash the windows. Justin and Clay did an excellent job, and were both professional friendly, and hardworking. The crew showed up early and got right down to business. My windows once again sparkle in the sunshine. Worth every penny, too! I will keep using Winters and recommending them to others up in Groveland. read more

I cannot, I repeat, cannot, say enough about this crew and/or company; Justin F, Ryan, Justin N, Noah. a. They showed up for our emergency within an hours, thank goodness they had an opening. b. Evaluated quickly and efficiently. c. Took a deeper look despite the fact nothing seemed to be a problem. d. Cleaned out everything for us anyway. e. Friendly, fun, courteous, and incredibly knowledgeable. f. Vacuumed the heck of the area (I wanted to hire them full time but they said nah.) g. Charges less than any of the competition quoted. h. Went above and beyond. Can't I keep Noah, pleeeease?? read more

We recently bought a cabin with two stoves up the hill from Sonora. Being Lowlanders, we thought of having our two stoves inspected and cleaned, but alas, it was put on the to-do later list. That was a month ago and then we had a creosote fire with grandchildren around. It was a sobering experience. Let me share why our family is thankful to WCS. We FINALLY called James yesterday and he sent Ryan and Justin to inspect and clean up our stoves. Their attention to detail and explanations were very helpful and instructive. These are two chaps who simply do not get the work done in the fastest time necessary, then leave. They are fully aware and are effective communicators concerning the preventative measures and actions that are continuously necessary to keep our family safe while we enjoy the ambience of a winter fire. They made a difference. My eldest has a cabin down the street, and i will make sure WCS will inspect, clean and service for the both of our cabins. The lessons learned here, is 1) don't assume anything about your stove (or else A** U $ Me), 2) don't put off the inspections if you want to enjoy the entire winter and 3) WCS will provide the information you need to take care of your stoves. On behalf of my family, Thank you Justin, Ryan and James read more

Brandon is a total professional. Does great work and is very personable. thank you for crystal clear windows.

Thanks for your continued great service..."Ryan" ALWAYS ALWAYS does the absolute best window cleaning 5/4/2021 read more

They did a good job on my windows, were promp and reasonably priced.

The task here was locating which dryer vent was mine as I am one of six units, they were able to find it and cleared it and did an amazing job. I am going to recommend that other tenants in my location do the same if nothing but out of pure safety.When making my appointment I started off with Justin who was very knowledgeable and walk me through the process of having my dryer vent cleaned as I live in a 30 year old complex and I'm unsure if anybody has ever clean the dryer vent before. The complex had a fire in 2019 that was very devastating to half of the complex which did not include my unit so I wanted to have the dryer ducts cleaned as it was taking almost 2 hours to dry my clothes. The guys showed up on the dot of when Justin said they would and got right to work.

Great Service! I called three companies Tuesday morning to get my chimney cleaned out. The first company basically quoted me $475 - No thanks. The second company took my info and said their scheduler would need to call me back. They called me back on Wednesday afternoon. When I called Winters, I spoke with Justin who immediately scheduled an appointment for Thursday. He called me back and told me there was a scheduling issue and if Wednesday was ok. GREAT FOR ME! With cold temps at night, it's nice to have the stove running properly. Thank you Winters! read more

Hired this company to clean my windows, I might as well found some high school kids on the corner and would have had same results. What an unprofessional company to say the least. When I called to explain to them how the cleaning went , they said they would no longer do business with me. I guess they only want to hear good things and not the truth. Pathetic Company, do not I warn do not hire these clowns CAUTION! CAUTION! CAUTION! read more

Winters is fantastic. They made time to get my elderly on the schedule. Highly recommend! They got a new stove in smoothly and the whole transaction was great. Highly recommend!! read more

We've been using Winters for several years now. They have helped us with a variety of things. They did install the gutter guard system which has been working great. I always get an appt when I need it. They are all so nice and polite. I love the guys who cleaned our stove. read more

I thought about having my windows done for a year or so. Little did I know that you should plan ahead, because you're not alone in wanting clean windows. I called in June and got the work scheduled for late July. That wasn't too long to wait compared to other cleaning services. The cleaning team arrived on time and went to work immediately. I didn't count heads but it was a large crew that were very compatible working together in sync. I was busy in another room but when I returned to check out their work I was in awe of how clean the windows were and how green my trees looked through the chalet windows. Even the screens were taken off and washed thoroughly. I remember being told that one of the seals had failed in a kitchen window but my windows were so dirty I didn't know which one it was, but I do now LOL Next call is the glass company to replace that window so everything looks perfectly clean. We couldn't be happier with this service and I'm now on an annual schedule. They are a multi service cleaning company so if you need any kind of cleaning check out Winters Cleaning Services. I am a fan. Oh I forgot to mention that I am a local realtor and will be recommending Winters if there's a need. read more

After expecting to get an answering machine ,I got a live person ,that is so unusual nowadays ,anyway they made a special trip out the same day I called to do the chimney sweep so we would have a heat and the guys that came out were very knowledgeable very professional the guys were very safe wore masked , which I really appreciated because we have someone in the house that is susceptible to getting anything right now , they made it very easy and I really appreciate them I would highly recommend this company read more

Would give 0 stars, Winters Cleaning Service and Stove Works is poorly managed and the owner does not treat people withh any kind of good nature. P.S. Normally business's reflect on negative reviews in order to better their businesses or at least apologize for the negative experience. Beware, the business owner for Winters Cleaning Service will send messages with threats to sue you if you don't retract your negative review. Also, my account is anonymous, so when referring to the messages below please keep that in mind. read more

I called Winters Cleaning Service on very short notice asking them to come and inspect and clean the fireplace and chimney on our recently purchased cabin in Long Barn. They arrived early, were very friendly, laid out protective cloth and did a thorough cleaning of the fireplace and chimney. They vacuumed up and left that area pristine. I plan to use some of their other services in the future. read more

Finally got someone out to my rental for a routine chimney sweep after a no show on my tenants as well as a cancellation due to the weather. Tech showed up and told my tenant that the whole system looked hokey and needed to be replaced!! Not me! The home owner!! They only say this to get you to use them for a county replacement program! How about just doing what was asked?! He didn't even clean the floo! Thanks for wasting everyone's time! read more

Great gutter cleaning service. They squeezed us in the same day we called. Jason & Brandan were very professional & left our property clean ! Price was very reasonable. We will recommend & use them again. Thanks guys !! read more

Winters Cleaning and Stove Works - James Winters - Home Cleaning Near Me - Sonora, California

Our woodstove (our primary heat source) started filling our home with smoke whenever we added fuel. It had been functioning proper for months and seemed to develop a problem almost overnight. I called several chimney/stove service companies in the area and Winters was the only one that answered with a live person. They came the next day and did a complete service of our stove. The problem was a clogged spark arrestor. They quoted the cost ahead of time, showed up on time, and did a very professional job. The two man crew took measures to keep our home clean and conducted themselves professionally. I recommend them! read more

The guys do a great job cleaning the 2 story windows inside and out and the hundreds of linear feet of glass railing surrounding the decks.

We needed our roof cleaned and some clearing outside. They did an excellent job. They were fast and efficient. There was a small hiccup on the pricing but all worked out. A great company to do business with. read more

The overall experience was excellent. My inquiries were responded to quickly, the estimate was done on the date proposed, and the team arrived on time on the date expected. The team was professional and did and exemplary job cleaning the interior and exterior of all the windows. I plan to utilize this company on an annual basis for the window cleaning. read more

I left a message and never called back. We leave in the Bay Area and have a Cabin in Arnold. We asked to get a quote to clean in Cabin in Arnold but it seems that they are not looking for more business. read more

This past summer, my husband and I had our rental property in Sonora left in a deplorable condition when the renters of one year moved out. Luckily for us, Winters Cleaning Service was able to come to our house and clean the ducting and windows. The young men that did the work were efficient, hard working, respectful and the home smelled much improved when they were done. Also, windows were lovely to look out of again. I absolutely recommend this company, they are top notch! read more

Very reputable company and we are very happy they fit our Arnold home project in during a busy time to accommodate our request. Upon speaking with James Winters, he offered additional services they could perform to meet our needs (sealant after pressure washing) and we were thrilled! They clear and clean properties very professionally, provide excellent pressure washing including any extra areas they find in need, and take great care moving items as necessary. The window washing services were phenomenal, streak free and beautiful. Very pleased. read more

We had window cleaning scheduled with Winters for 2 weeks when April called 5 minutes before they were scheduled to arrive to say that they wouldn't be able to make it. Very unprofessional and disappointing since we had already moved all the furniture in readiness for window washing. The earliest she could reschedule was 2 1/2 weeks out, which was unacceptable. We would not recommend this company. read more

They make appointments and don't show up. No call or email to explain. All attempts to reschedule ignored. Will not recommend

Windows cleaned. Windows looked better but window tracks are still filthy and they don't use a vacuum to suck up anything in the tracks.

I have been a customer of Winters for the last three years. The crews have always done an excellent job. Their prices have gone way too high. The price increase in the last two years was over $100 up to $240. Next year, I will be looking for a more reasonably priced alternative. read more

Wow! We recently purchased a cabin in Camp Connell with really dirty windows, and I hired Winters to do the window cleaning while we were not there. When we arrived today I was pleasantly surprised, the window cleaning was stupendous! Not only did the windows look great, but the screens did as well, and best of all, they cleaned the gross window tracks that I'm sure had not been done in years. I would definitely recommend these guys, they did a great job. read more

We've had good luck with all our window cleaning services the last 5 years. Our regular guy moved and recommended we try Winter's. They were even better! Very professional, competitive rates, and perfect job! The crew (Ryan & a lady) couldn't have been more accommodating and got every spot removed from all the windows. Our house is 3300 square feet with large picture windows and walk-out basement. They blew off the roof and cleaned the gutters, as well. The whole job was completed under 4 hours. You won't find a better outfit! read more

Disappointed! We had to wait for several weeks for an appointment, which was understandable because of the weather, but then the evening before they were scheduled to arrive the owner called to say that he had a "bigger" job scheduled for that day and had forgotten to put us on the calendar. When the workers did show up they said that they didn't bring the right equipment (our side gutters cannot be reached by ladder and require a harness system). This was frustrating because they had cleaned the gutters 5 months ago for the previous owner of the house, so they should have been aware of the conditions. I called the owner and he recommended that we have them install a gutter guard and we scheduled another appointment. They didn't show up or call on the appointed day, so we called them and they said that they decided not to do the job because their workman's comp would not cover it. The whole thing was a big waste of time. read more

Winters installed a wonderful wood burning fireplace insert at our family cabin in Mi Wuk Village. I had priced the inserts at other businesses, and Winters offered a high quality stove and stove pipe at a much lower price. The staff was kind, responsive, knowledgeable, helpful, and a delight to work with. The installation was handled professionally, the work area was left in pristine condition, and it looks beautiful! Thank you! read more
