I hired Rainier Heating & Cooling for regular maintenance of a mini-split system (4 interior and 1…read moreexterior units). I compared several vendors, and Rainier was the one that provided the most clear and competitive pricing. Alex arrived at the agreed upon time (we had an arrival window of 8-11am) and proceeded to perform the job quickly and efficiently. He washed the filters outside to minimize the dust inside the house. Since the maintenance, the A/C feels a lot more potent, which is great with the high temperatures we are currently experiencing. I would gladly recommend Rainier Heating & Cooling.

Excellent service from start to finish. Steve was great throughout--answered all my questions and…read moregot me exactly what I needed at a fair price. The installation team was on time, professional, and their high-quality workmanship really shows. About a month after the install, the thermostat turned out to be faulty. Their post-sales support was just as good as the initial install. They had Austin out the very next day to replace it. He was professional, efficient, and had everything back up and running quickly. They delivered the kind of follow-up service you hope for but rarely get. Highly satisfied.

Our service technician, Rob was dispatched quickly to help us when our heater kept blowing fuses…read more He inspected the indoor and outdoor components and discovered a shorted wire in the outside unit. It was bumped up against a copper wire and literally melting. He quickly repaired that, explaining as he went along. Discovered some other glitches and needed to come back a second time, in 2 days with an ordered part that he replaced. Now the heater is working correctly and that was well worth the money. I liked the office staff and their excellent communication skills. Highly recommend their service.

They not only fixed…read morethe issues I originally posted with a 3* review, but also revisited what we had discussed back in March - fixed it, and found something new going on that we will fix soon. VERY happy now. Prior review: We hired Capitol Duct because they were the only company we called that used a scope (camera) to examine the ducts before cleaning. We should have gotten the ducts cleaned before installing an in-duct booster fan, but we didn't think of it, so we needed the cleaners to be extra careful with their rotating brushes in that area. They came out 3-2-26. [I deleted the rest of my review, but the photos can' be deleted - they show dirt that showed up on our filter 2 months later. Capitol Duct came out again right away and took care of everything. NOTE to others - if something goes wrong, call them before posting a bad review.]

I've got only one gripe and it's a real "first world problem" because I didn't get a thermostat that could be controlled with Apple HomeKit. I know I'm whining a bit. in truth, things didn't go perfectly. we had a fan and light switch check out of the chat while they were here and there was just no way they had anything to do with it. but, they took care of it all the same. getting the hardware installed went smooth. the wiring for whatever reason became an issue. turned out something needed a firmware update and the wiring corrected thereafter. so, I had one cold morning before it was all perfect. I believe you see the best from a company when things don't go perfect. there were some hiccups but, all was handled splendidly.

Our undermounted bathroom sink had become detach (needed clamps and glue), so we needed a plumber…read more We live on Bainbridge Island, but financially are of the middle class. We had Hart Plumbing come out. (They are one of the few plumbers in Kitsap County willing to service Bainbridge Island, so we were excited about that.) Thomas Castrataro came out to assess the job. He could not tell us even a ball-park estimate of how much time the job would take. He also could not tell us how much money it would ultimately cost. Finally, with considerable prompting, he said it would cost us $1500. If the job was going to take a max of three hours (more than enough time), that meant Hart Plumbing's Thomas Castrataro was hoping to charge us $500 per hour. Thomas came back with a second offer of $1000, but the $500 difference between the two offers, coupled with the fact he was going to drive to Silverdale (rather than just go to ProBuild or Ace Hardware on Bainbridge), charging us for that time and 21 miles driving (each way) also shook our confidence in his professionalism and his acting in good faith. Despite the fact that I had articulated that it was the sink that needed fixing, and the fact that Hart had a very spacious van, Thomas didn't have the materials necessary to re-attach the sink. He said he might have to drive from Bainbridge Island to Silverdale, because he didn't have an account with ProBuild or Ace Hardware on Bainbridge. Does that sound professional? We appreciate that Hart comes out to Bainbridge Island. (Other plumbing companies do not.) But frankly, we felt completely used, and will never recommend Hart to anyone. We had to hand Thomas $75 (plus tax) for no service (Hart's policy), which was painful. We thought Hart would at least have sent a plumber reasonably priced and acting in good conscience. We know there are many affluent people who would be willing to pay $1000 or even $1500 for this 3-hour max job. But frankly, we felt taken advantage of, and will NEVER call Hart Plumbing again: This company is a big red flag.

I needed a new igniter which was unavailable at most hardware stores I searched and the needed part wouldn't be available for delivery for 7-10 days. Capitol did not have the part on hand nor were they a vendor, but their customer service relayed me to a local supplier, Ferguson that might have my replacement parts. I was fortunate that my house was only 60F inside but my pets were cold, and they couldn't just put on a sweater all day. I greatly appreciated the service I received for no gain that allowed me to make my home a warm place again. Thank You!

Their technicians (Dale and apprentice) colluded with the landlord of the home to provide a report saying that there was no HVAC cleaning necessary, and no safety hazards in the home. I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and have been very ill in this home. I provided the company with my doctor's accommodation letters that I also provided my landlords, stating that I must have the dust removed from the home in order to reside in the home safely. And because the homeowner is their client, this company created a false report and refused to hear pr address legitimate safety concerns. Highly unethical company. Clearly just in it for the money. Avoid at all costs!

They put the heat pump right where I wanted it and it looks great. And they were happy to answer any questions.

Pro's - Basic work seemed to be done well and at a price that was competitive with others I contacted at least for the basic service. - Communication was prompt. - After some re-scheduling on their part, the team did the work swiftly and efficiently. - Most of the terms were clear in advance, using Yelp Projects. Con's - This is a fairly shiesty corner of the home maintenance world. Many providers seem to give you a low-ball estimate to get in the door and then upsell significantly. - Envirosmart is not an exception. - The initial quote was $200. This included scoping the ducts and doing the negative pressure clean-out. - Onsite, they then upsold me to $670 for a more thorough brushing of the vents, sanitation, and some other ancillary services. - They were only modestly well-organized. They called the day-of to reschedule because of a conflict with internal training. They also confirmed a different time than I had originally scheduled. It was the difference of a 9 to 11am original window and a 2:30-3pm arrival. - The Yelp Project communication could have been clearer. They did not specify whether they were calling to quote me or coming to do the service! Amid all this and with some clarification and flexibility on our part, we worked it out. I would have appreciated either a discount or additional service for the delay. None was proffered. I did not go ahead with the upsell as I had already gotten quotes for less from other providers with somewhat more transparent pricing. I think the work they did appeared fine. See attached pics. Your guess is as good as mine which are before and which are after! They did not specify when they sent them to me and email took off the timestamp. I'm hoping the cleaner ones. I probably will try another service when I do this again and with a higher rated provider. All in all, though, I had low expectations and those low expectations were met.

Each time, the technician listened to the problems we were experiencing, correctly diagnosed the problem and repaired the unit. This last time, the technician was able to assure me there was no leakage problem and the alarm was an error. He did a through investigation. I have been very satisfied with the communication. Too often, a service provider is unwilling to take the time to talk to the customer (especially if the customer is a woman). We have purchased a Priority Plus membership because I anticipate on-going problems with this water heater. I trust the technicians who have provided services. Several services are available at a discount with the membership and I plan to use them.

While scheduling the appointment, I have just been told, that because I said, "I didn't think it's heating like it should" That I now have to make an appointment for a " repair technician" that will cost $100+ for the visit. I asked "well then what am I paying for monthly who comes out for the free maintenance appointment?!? and she said something like well that's the "maintenance and safety technician". The "free" appointment that I pay for every month is only for the once a year visit by the "maintenance and safety technician" and because I simply said I don't think t's working quite like it should" now I have to pay $100+ for this visit. What?!? SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM!! Bait & SWITCH! I told her on the phone "OK, I take it back. Suddenly my heater is working beautifully. I need the free maintenance visit," she replied "well now that I've already said it wasn't working properly and it's been recorded, I have to pay the $100+ for the appointment. I became a total 'Karen' and asked to speak to someone on a higher level. I was furious!! She couldn't transfer me because it's a Saturday. She continued refusing to give me my standard free appointment (that I actually pay every month for). How does she know if the safety maintenance man can simply push a button and it starts to work better? She doesn't! SCAM!! SCAM!! SCAM!! SCAM!! Do NOT use this company! Do NOT buy a unit from this company! And absolutely do NOT pay monthly for there scam of the "free maintenance visit" THIS IS A CLASSIC, GREEDY COMPANY SCAM!!
