Called at 4:40 on a Friday and got a text back before I'd put the phone down. Tech was here Saturday morning. Bad capacitor, fixed in 40 minutes, price was exactly what he quoted.

What we fix
Four things, done properly.
We only work on homes, and only on heating and cooling. No plumbing add-ons, no generator upsell. Pick what's going on and we'll take it from there.
01
AC repair
Warm air, ice on the copper lines, water by the air handler, a breaker that keeps tripping.
02AC replacement
Sized with a load calculation for your house, not copied from the old unit's label.
03Furnace & heat pump
No heat on the first cold night, a burning smell, short cycling, a heat pump stuck in defrost.
04Comfort Club
Two tune-ups a year, spring for cooling and fall for heating, plus priority scheduling in July.

Diagnosis, then the price
The tech shows you what failed and gives a written price. Nothing gets replaced until you say yes.
Repair or replace
We'll tell you when a repair isn't worth it. And when it is.
Most systems we see should be repaired. A few shouldn't. This is the rule our techs use before they ever mention a new unit.

Two other companies told us to replace the whole system. This tech found a clogged drain line that had tripped the float switch. Saved us thousands and didn't try to sell us anything.
The replacement quote came with three options and the load calculation printout. Install crew put down floor covers and hauled the old unit away. Upstairs is finally cool.
