They need to be first on you list to call with issues. The service mgr was dispatched and took care of the issue (replaced capacitor on AC unit). No up-charge, no up-sell. And, we had the issue on a super-hot day/week. Called at 8:00am, fixed by 11:00am. I know this might not be typical response time during a hot time, but they were awesome.

Charged $100 more than quoted and was told they had parts available "in the truck" but still took an extra 1 hr+ because they had to leave for parts 2 times. Also reinstalled a longer fan shaft on the the new condenser fan motor and now the fan doesn't sit at the same height inside the condenser and makes extra noise & vibration because it's creating extra air turbulence inside the condenser due to the fan being too far down into the condenser. TLDR.they put whatever parts they could find and charged me an extra $100

Awesome service. Good price, didn't try to upsell like other companies we talked to. Had to make two trips because they didn't have the part in stock but we were only charged for one visit. Will definitely be using them in the future
