They do quality work, but are messy and very difficult to work with. They re-insulated all my windows. There is yellow spray foam everywhere. The siding was done ok, there are some sloppy cuts. They did not properly install the gutter guards. They simply slid them in under the shingles of my roof. They could have blown away at any time. <br /> They came to my house and just started to do the work without giving me notice that they were coming. I showed up one evening from work and my siding was ripped off. They could have damaged my car that was parked in the driveway. <br /> They have shady pricing. They will send you a flier that says you can get 30% off with the flier. My experience was that tthe 30% discount will only get you within a 10% range of the same pricing level of the competition. I also received multiple quote updates, negotiation, from these guys. In one of them they randomly dropped the labor cost by 50%. Their pricing scheme is really shady. <br /> After the work was performed, I hired a different company to work on my house. They accidentally did some damage to work Four seasons performed. Four seasons does not work well with competitors. They act very unprofessionally if you use a different contractor for work on your house. If you dare use another company to do work on your house, and that other company accidentally does damage, these guys act like catty 13 year old drama queens. They will give you another excessively high estimate to redo the work and tell you that your warranty is voided unless you hire them to re-do the work. They will not give part numbers, they will not give paint codes, etc. to you or their competitor to fix what the competitor accidentally broke. They will be unresponsive to emails. They wont call you back. They will not send you emails, even if they agree to do it over the phone. <br /> The sales team is trained to try and upsell you at the cost of customer service. It took me a month and half a dozen phone calls to get a list of all the materials they installed on my house. <br /> In sum, really difficult to work with. Expensive. Shady business practices. I would not recommend them. <br />

"Our work was performed in October of 2014, the customer had another company do work in May 2015. The other company damaged the gutter covers we installed. The customer asked us for the part numbers so the other company could get replacement pieces. When it was explained that there are no part numbers since his gutter covers were custom made in house by our workers, the customer demanded we give him the part numbers for all pieces ordered for his home and refused to believe there was no part number for the gutter covers. We offered to create some replacement pieces for him for a minor charge to cover the cost of our labor and the special order material. We believe it is fair and equitable to charge for materials and labor to custom create replacement pieces when it was not our fault they were damaged. There have been no previous complaints on record in this file in regards to workmanship or materials of any kind until this post on Angie's List regarding the damaged gutter covers."

The experience was smooth! I had no problem at all. They did use another company to paint, but I don't remember the name.

We picked them because they were well reviewed on Angie's list, and maybe they'll get better, but thus far we've been underwhelmed. The salesman put one of their signs in my yard the day we signed the contract, which was a full month before work was supposed to start. No way. You don't get free advertising in my yard for a month before you do anything. They didn't get back with me about when the work would start; I finally had to email them two weeks later. The place they ordered the new windows from showed up at my house to deliver them rather than taking them to the contractor. I told the salesman we'd be out of town for the holiday but he didn't pass that info along to the people actually doing the work, so they left a message on my answering machine between Christmas and New Year's and then showed up on 12/29 to work without having confirmed we'd be here. Really? That's sufficient contact attempts, between two holidays? My cat sitter called to let us know people were working on the house even though no one was home. Again--really? This is a good idea? But golly gee, they managed to get their SIGN in my yard again. I'm supposed to be hearing back about when they're coming to do the rest of the work, but honestly, I'm not holding my breath. Their work seems fine but their communication is lousy. <br /> <br /> UPDATE: Now that the work is finished, I can say that their communication did get better (they called back within a responsible time period to schedule the remainder of the project. The quality of the work is also acceptable.

They did everything I has discussed with the estimator. They even cleaned up the debris after themselves with no impact on any other part of the residence (lawn, shrubbery, even flowers). Materials were delivered on a Tuesday and. after two days of rain, they started the roof work on Friday. The gutters and eaves were done the following Tuesday. Superb job and all of it at roughly the price I figured would be appropriate. <br /> <br /> My wife and I are so pleased with the experience that we are planning on bringing them back to do some upgrading in the Spring. <br /> Just a completely pleasant experience.

Two gentlemen arrived when promised and worked continuously until door install was completed. Neat and Tidy while working and cleaned up well when finished. I did have them return to reseal around door frame due to large gaps of outside air leaking in. Once that was done, we were pleased with service. Also had door manufacturer (Provia) came out to remove "glue" from stained glass and re-seat screw pegs on the interior of door. This repair took a lot of effort on my end to make happen and the repair work took weeks to be completed -this was more a manufacturers issue (Provia) than with Four Seasons. <br /> <br /> Seemed like Four Seasons was mainly the "seller" of the products. The salesperson was not able to assist with any of above issues. Inretrospect, Four Seasons was a bit overpriced. You can find their doors (Provia) available through other retailers for at least 2K less. I would recommend going with a manufacturer/company that actually can follow through from sales to install to adjustments (if needed). <br /> <br /> We have since had a basement double door completely replaced (replacement of rotted wood, re-framed, new door system installed etc.) and went with another company who was able to handle all aspects of project ....and quoted above door for much less than Four Seasons!

The Four Seasons salesman, Andrew, was low key -- which we like, since one other place we contacted sent a high-pressure guy who we practically had to eject from the house, and the third place had a salesman who was high-energy and outgoing but flaky. We know approximately what we wanted ahead of time, which is a big help, and settled on a brand and appearance. However, there were a couple of minor miscommunications. We order "Dutch-lap maple-colored siding with white trim." What we got was maple-colored, but not Dutch-lap. Rather than re-order (and wait 3 more weeks), we went with the straight-lap stuff. Also, "white trim" meant one thing to us -- based on our talks with the other vendors -- and another to Andrew. We thought it meant that all the special siding at the corners and around the windows ("corner posts" and "J channels") would be white, but by "trim" he meant just the aluminum window-frame wrappings. After we came home the first day and saw how what they had done looked, we complained. The foreman, a nice and capable Korean gentleman, did not speak English very fluently, and so we called Andrew. After some discussion of the meaning of the word "trim", we understood what had happened. In the event, they were able to get white corner posts from the same product line locally the next morning, and re-installed the corner posts; we ended up living with the non-white J channels around the windows. <br /> <br /> The installation was done in what seems to me to be a very high quality fashion, with good attention to details. They mis-measured the amount of siding needed, and had to re-order to finish the last wall of the house. Seems a little odd to me, since Andrew mentioned that after he measured the house to give us a quote, an installer also came out to measure to confirm his estimates. Despite these small snafus, we are pleased with the results. We would use them again if the occasion arises, but I think we're getting close to done for our home-improvement efforts for a while.

They have very professional sales representatives. They came to the house for an evening appointment both times so that I would be back from work and could meet them. Having a representative from a company who is professional and knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything to you and comes to the house with an evening appointment was certainly convenient. They did not try to drive up the costs and advised me only to do the necessary things. They were very good and did a good job. They were not the cheapest but they were good.

I was not happy with them and their work. After about a year the roof developed a major leak and they were not responsive to my request to fix it. It took several calls and finally they sent somebody out to just put some sealant on. It did help but did not completely fix the problem. After that I decided that probably that was the best they could do and I put a bucket under the attic so that it doesn't leak into the house. It's not a big leak right now. I would not rank them high for quality, price or service.
Response from Four Seasons Home Improvement Co Inc
"The roof work was completed in 2008. In March of 2010 Customer called and complained that the roof was leaking. Upon inspection it was found that a tree branch had fallen on the vent over the bathroom causing the roof to leak. Replacement of the vent was offered for a minimal service charge due to the issue being unrelated to installation or material; a non-warranty issue and possible insurance claim. Customer refused so the file was noted and filed. At a later time the customer again called, and our president sent a tech to patch at no charge without replacement. We have not received any further communication from Customer since."

We were getting multiple bids and Four Seasons was very responsive during the bid process. It took a while for the work to start because it needed to be approved by the Mongtomery Village ARB. Once the work starterd it moved well. THe windows took a couple of days; the shingle a few days. The siding took longer but it was a large job. The crew was punctional and very neat. There was one area that was not done that they came back out to finish a month later. Overall the house looks very good and we are very satisfied.

High winds in December had blown off siding from the side of our house. We decided to go ahead and replace all the siding, gutters and downspouts since the rest of it wasn't in the best shape. Four Seasons worked with our insurance company which made things a little easier. The job took a little longer than I expected because only 2 people worked on the siding and bad weather kept delaying things. A different crew came and put up the gutter and downspouts in about 2 hours. The workers were very polite and even came on Sunday to finish the job. The house looks great.

I met with 3 roofing contractors. All of them were roughly within $100 for their quotes. However, Four Seasons Home Improvement Co.included the skylight and watershield w/drip edge. I requested a certificate of insurance prior to signing the proposal. Andrew Muhlboch provided the certificate when we met to sign the proposal. The roofing crew arrived on Monday March 14th and completed the entire job that day. The crew cleaned up after the job and left the property in the same conditon as when they arrived. This was an easy roofing job and Four Seasons did not complicate it. They did what they said they would do. My only complaint is that I think their pricing for plywood roof decking is a bit on the expensive side at: 1/2" CDX plywood (4'x8') at $105.00/sheet. Fortunately, this job only required 1 sheet of plywood for replacement. The crew manager contacted me when his crew encountered the damaged plywood and welcomed that I wanted to inspect it. It was an obvious replacement.

Our interactions with Four Seasons, from the first phone conversations with Mike and Mark to touching base with Andrew when the work was completed, were positive and painless. They represented Four Seasons with great professionalism and the work they did was high-quality and just terrific. We are extremely happy with their service and with the finished product and would definitely use them again in the future.

This work was performed 3 years ago and apparently I forgot to post the review. However, this gives me the opportunity to tell you that everything (BUT SEE BELOW) they installed has stood the test of time. Salesman was helpful; workers were efficient, competent and neat. Everything (BUT SEE BELOW) they installed was top quality. More expensive than other firms but worth it to me. Note that prices may have changed drastically for all firms. Also, beware of the new EPA lead paint removal rules. NONE OF THE ABOVE applies to subcontractor-installed (forgot the name) gutters and downspouts. NOT WELL DONE. Suggest you look under appropriate ANGIE'S LIST listings for other contractors.

They were very professional. It wasn't the low bid but we were very pleased with their responsiveness, the quality of work and their ability to work with our schedule. They provided great follow through with the job and I thought it was money well spent.

We are so happy to hear that you were satisfied with the work and you are enjoying your siding. It is good to hear you based your decision on components other than price.

We do try to keep our prices as competitive as possible and do have an open book policy where we can show precisely what you're paying for. We hope you will think of us for work you may want in the future. Also, if there is any issues with the siding please give us a call and we come and fix it. Thank you so much again!

The whole process of getting the quote was great. The salesman was punctual and polite. He was responsive Everything was great, that is why I chose to go with them. When it came to do the work it was a Thursday, and I took the day off work. They sent a guy out that didn't have ladders tall enough to even do the work. He said they would have to send someone else out the next day. I had to take another day off of work. They did come the next day. When they were doing the work it started raining, so I got a lot of water in my house. I shouldn't have chose to do the work on a day that it was supposed to rain. They did the work that they said they would do, however the leak is still there. They repaired all of the damage wood in the walls, but that wood is getting wet now because it is still leaking. When I called and talked to the owner, his response was basically that they shouldn't have taken the job to begin with. What they did, they did well, but they didn't fix the problem. They don't stand ehind their work.
Response from Four Seasons Home Improvement Co Inc
"The original consultation proposed a solution that may have been viable but involved taking up part of the neighbor's roof. As permission was not received from the neighbor, but damage still needed to be remedied, we amended the contract with the homeowner to perform work to his unit only and hopefully solve the problem from his side. At this point any leak coming in is most likely coming in from the neighbors roof area and not directly from the homeowner's siding area. If both the homeowner and neighbor agree we would be willing to perform an inspection of both properties and have made mention to the homeowner of this proposal."

He did a good job. The price was expensive because they had a minimum cost and we only needed a small job.

They pretty much transformed my house. I got the whole exterior work. I got new roof, new windows, new doors, storm door, and siding. They worked with me on my budget. They showed me all the materials that they used, and I liked the materials that they showed. They had quality material, and they did what I wanted. The project went well. We had some weather delays, but they worked very quickly. The roof work was done in 1 day. They told me about everything that they replaced. I wanted different size windows from the ones that I had. They did a good job on the windows and everything, and it looked very nice. They finished the project in 2 weeks. They arrived on time in the morning, worked all day, and cleaned up very well. A few things fell off the wall, and they told me to take everything off the wall. In the hammering process, we broke a couple of small things.

Really well. There were a lot of details to decide during installation as nothing in this old house is level, plumb or square. Felt like a cooperative venture throughout installation. They broke out the pricing for siding work from the gutters and downspout work for easy comparison. They were not the cheapest by far, but they provided a lot of references and their work is excellent.

Prior to selecting Four Seasons to do the work, I obtained five estimates. They were from reputable companies, but it became obvious from the onset that they weren't all equal. One quote was from a company that specializes in windows and tried to use a high pressure sales tactic to get the sale. I almost felt like I was in an auto showroom. Another specialized in carpet and flooring, but was expanding to home improvement/repair. Like Four Seasons, the remaining two were true home improvement companies and were the most knowledgeable when it came to their product line and willingness to share their expertise. In addition, the estimates from all three of them were at least $15,000 less than those who didn't specialize in home improvement. As a matter of courtesy I informed each company that came to provide an estimate that I would wait to review all the estimates I received before signing a contract. And that's what I did. I also spent about 2-1/2 to 3 hours with each salesperson to get a better understanding of their company and knowledge of the work I would be contracting for. Rob E. was the salesman I worked with from Four Seasons. A true professional. He answered all my questions and told me I could call him anytime. He even made sure to keep in contact with me as the job progressed to make sure I was satisfied with the work or to inquire if I had any questions. Even after the siding had been installed he contacted me to make certain I was satisfied with the work and the results. I was. When I eventually signed with Four Seasons I put 1/3 down. I was also told the job would start within 4 weeks. I was surprised and pleased when they actually started a couple of weeks earlier. The entire job went smooth and I'm completely satisfied with the work. It only took a total of about 4 days to complete the work. It would probably have been less if it hadn't rained a couple of times. The crew I had have a combined work experience of about 40 years between them. I attribute that to the outstanding results of the job. At the end of every day they cleaned up any debris and asked if I had any questions. Overall a very good experience. You should note that they used a different crew to install the gutters right after the siding was installed. They did the work while I was away, but the results were just as good as the siding. I would recommend this company without hesitation.
