    If you need a repair done here be sure to plan ahead. I thought April would give us enough time to…read morefix our lawnmower- we were told 15 days at the most. Unfortunately in our case our lawnmower was held hostage for almost 2 months while they waited for a part to come in. I called many times after not hearing anything for 3 weeks- each time I was told something different- a part was back ordered, it was "on its way", it would be in Wednesday etc. I understand it may have been out of their control to get a part in, but I felt like I was given the run around each time I called and I couldn't get a straight answer. In the meantime, my lawn grew out of control and I had to pay someone to mow it. When the part finally arrived, 5 weeks after I dropped it off, it turns out they had ordered the wrong cable! So we had to wait another week or so. While the staff was friendly and somewhat apologetic, we weren't offered any sort of discount or credit. In the end it would have been cheaper to have bought a new lawnmower - with the $175 for repairs and $150 to mow our yard.

We thought the gas line was cracked and needed replaced. Mac Equipment took apart the chainsaw and then called us to pick it up and said it wasn't WORTH repairing. We had paid $100 for diagnosis. When we got home, we opened the case and saw that they just THREW all the pieces in the case. THEY DIDN'T EVEN PUT THE CHAINSAW BACK TOGETHER! What a RIP OFF!!!!

The two installers showed up also on time and were quick and efficient. Even though they it wasn't part of the quote, they mounted the charger for me, and also installed the load management device into the panel (which was part of it). In the end, everyone else told me I had to get a new panel for $6k, and Austin and his team came up with a more affordable options and did an amazing job with installation. No surprises on the final price either.

I have no reservations in recommending this company. -------------------- I really wanted to give Just In Time a five-star review, because I genuinely think the issue I ran into was an honest mistake. Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with how they handled that mistake. First, the good: I hired them to install a smart EV charger. They were super friendly, responsive, on-time, and the installation itself was fast and clean. Here's where things went sideways: they told me the job was complete, but the charger's controller--the part that actually makes it "smart"--was still sitting in the box. Without that piece installed, the whole point of the smart charger is lost. The technicians put me on the phone with the boss, who told me installing the rest of the components would be an additional $165. I was awfully annoyed, but I didn't really have any choice at that point. My issue is simple: I was clear from the beginning about the exact charger I needed installed. I showed the estimator the box and confirmed that their quote covered installing and integrating the smart charger. Some people might call this a bait-and-switch, but I don't think that's what happened. I think they either misunderstood the charger when quoting or were just moving too fast. An honest mistake. But the "solution" was to charge me $165 more for something that took them less than fifteen minutes. They had an opportunity to either (A) complete the scope they quoted, or (B) at least try to work with me on the added fee. Instead, I got a shrug and a "take it or leave it."

    Needed an electrician to solve some residential wiring issues for me, other companies in the area…read morequoted upwards of $1000. OGS were great at communicating, accommodating to my schedule and got the work done at a fraction of the price quoted by others. The two gentleman showed up on time, were courteous throughout and made sure I was 100% satisfied with the project. They even made sure to get everything cleaned up and left how they found it - even better. Would highly recommend this company and I wasn't paid for this review. Great job, thank you!

    One star is too generous for OGS, Off-Grid Solutions. I wouldn't trust OGS to replace a lightbulb…read more I had to hire an experienced journeyman electrician to do a forensic inspection of OGS' work and the inspection found numerous code and safety violations by OGS that required remediation. Some of the OGS' mistakes could have caused a fire. The inspector commented that the (OGS) work appeared to be done by an inexperienced person. OGS failed at every step and then extorted me to pay them immediately in cash before the work was complete and before the City electrical inspection. The even clumsily FORGED a changed contract long after the "work" was finished, changing the terms; I had never seen that contract version until 6 weeks after the work was supposed to be completed. I have since learned from OGS that an "apprentice" may have been used on the project, mostly unsupervised, which is illegal in Colorado. I believe that the reason they wanted cash before the inspection is that they didn't not expect their work to pass inspection. We had a detailed contract for a straight-forward electrical panel capacity and amp upgrade. The contract specified that two employee electricians were to take one day to complete installation of a detailed list of equipment and get the permits and inspection done. They sent one (not two) freelance "electrician", who appears to be just an apprentice who is not allowed to work without in-person supervision, who had never seen the work order and did not have a copy. The "electrician" brought and started installing a breaker box that was the wrong brand and 1/3 less capacity than the minimum specified. After a 2nd day of work, OGS were still missing parts, but demanded full cash payment; they said it was too much trouble to bring the remaining necessary parts soon. OGS deliberately delayed requesting City inspection for no valid reason--a homeowner was home every day in January. They threatened to sabotage my follow-on project if I did not pay them cash immediately before the contracted work was completed and inspected. And did. The contracted work is still not completed, weeks later. After numerous threats, I may file extortion charges against them and seek a form of restraining order. IMHO, the GUYS AT OGS ARE NUTS and certainly should not be licensed electricians. The OGS reply to this has substantial misrepresentations; no surprise. Deal with them at your own peril.

    We requested an Essency electric water heater installation. We also needed 240/220 run from the…read morepanel outside to the mechanical room. 1. We were given quotes for 4 different water heaters, including one gas heater. That allowed us to compare pricing & features. 2. We were given 2 quotes for the electrical work depending on ease or difficult access to the mechanical room. All quotes were detailed with line items for parts, etc. That was very professional vs the companies that give you a "black box" price with no details. Prices were reasonable for today's structure. Still a shock as we've had the house for 13 years with very few repairs needed. But it is what it is. We had a problem with the initial water heater hookup. They quickly sent out a top electrician (Pete) who verified everything and found one problem. He said he'd talk to the owner in case there was a problem with the water heater. The Essency has communication and app control features so the board working is critical. The next morning they had a full replacement water heater on the truck in case it was needed. It was not needed, Pete and Jacob had it up and running and reverified everything. Pete also caught that our router had paused the connection to water heater for some reason. Pete called later to make sure everything was good. We live near DU and there was no stalling around about coming out here. Every person that showed up communicated well and was good to have in our house.

    6 reasons to think twice about save home heat…read more This one goes out to female homeowners who might be especially vulnerable to smooth-talking HVAC salesmen. A week ago, I had a regularly scheduled maintenance visit with Save Home Heat. What followed was a beautifully crafted upsell: psychologically astute, layered, and intricate. It may have been an isolated incident, due to a slow February, or part of a larger corporate ethos. The salesman tried to sell me a water heater, which I do in fact need, but also tried to say my 2019 furnace was basically beyond repair, and that I would need a new furnace, and because my AC was also the same vintage it would be best to get a new heat pump as well, for "peace of mind." The total came to $30,761.83. Here's exactly what happened. 1. The year prior, on a maintenance visit, Save Home Heat missed a critical repair, a major red flag, to fix the flue and combustion air for furnace. Flue and combustion air systems are key for safety, efficiency, and equipment longevity in fuel-burning appliances. 2. The salesperson tried to say what he called my 8-year-old furnace, which in fact just turned 7 in January, was old, meh (builder's grade), and pretty much beyond repair. He said the industry standard for my furnace was 12 years. The repairs they quoted me came to $3242.08. The salesguy said there were in fact probably more repairs lurking that he couldn't even see and best would be to replace the furnace altogether. Cost for a new furnace: $13,464.12. When I did get a second opinion, as strongly suggested by friends, I went with Carbon Valley Heating & Air. Dale Moe, the Carbon Valley service manager, said industry standard for furnaces was in fact between 10 and 15 years, and my furnace was well worth repairing rather than replacing. Estimate for Carbon Valley's repair, for flue and combustion air for furnace, and for return air in basement: Cost = $1898. 3. The Save Home Heat salesguy mentioned my furnace was grinding, which it wasn't really doing. He also showed me an amp reading and said the motor was using more than was indicated. His reading was 2.41. Therefore, I would need a new combustion blower for $898. The specified amount on the nameplate is 2.35. When Carbon Valley came and did a reading, their reading was 2.2. 4. Save Home Heat, in their estimate, quoted a repair for the blower wheel ($431), blower motor replacement ($850) and for a pressure switch ($224). Carbon Valley said the blower was "not grinding nor compromised, was balanced and showed no signs of needing repair." Dale said the furnace would not be working with a bad pressure switch and this another unnecessary "repair." 5. Save Home Heat then went beyond suggesting I replace my furnace. (February, given its mild temps, was apparently a very slow month for the HVAC trade!) He said, since my AC was the same vintage as my furnace, and therefore on the edge of its life, why not consider replacing both the AC and the furnace and swapping in a heat pump? Again, for "peace of mind." A heat pump would save me money on propane and since they were replacing everything at once they could really get in there do a great job of modifying the return AirDrop and supply ducting. Cost for a new furnace and heat pump: $25,195.57. 6. Save Home Heat used the classic sale tactics of creating fear and urgency. The salesman mentioned this was all pre-tariff pricing--God knows how much the new 2026 pricing would be when it would be instated very soon. Also, he pressured me more by saying their offer was only good for February, giving me roughly a week to come up with a decision. So my takeaway? Always get a second opinion for big ticket items. Always be skeptical and curious about every single line item. Work with a company that has proven its integrity and is worthy of your trust. As for me, I cancelled my membership with Save Home Heat and will not be working with them in the future.
