Thermostat for forced air heating stopped working during chilly weather. Called them; receptionist got on it right away and was able to arrange for a technician house call that same day! Checked old thermostat as I watched, answered questions. We needed a new thermostat, which he had in stock in his van. Showed me the specs and price on his phone, which I approved. He then installed it and voila! problem solved. Price? Not cheap, but reasonable considering the immediate and hassle-free service. It spared us another chilly night in the house! How that for value? read more

After the first company I scheduled with flaked on my appointment, they called a completely wrong phone number to cancel, I reached out to Evan's. My prior land lord had hired them so I set up an appointment to get my dryer ducts cleaned. I was told it would be between 10-12 today. Prior to 10am Dylan called to let me know he was on his way. He showed a few minutes later and within a half hour I had excellent air flow! There is a flat charge and trustworthy service! I am so excited to start only running one dry cycle during laundry! A bit embarrassing, but this is how much he removed. Many years of build up, and I have cats... so you know that is mostly from them. read more

Evans Mechanical is an excellent service committed to customer satisfaction and guaranteed quality workmanship. Our water heater burst and they were very responsive. They sent a technician out the same day and it was determined the heater was beyond repair. He was extremely kind and understanding about the situation knowing how difficult it was to go without hot water. Within an hour, I had an estimate for a replacement and a scheduled install the next morning. The service technicians were very helpful and professional, answering any and all questions I had and completed an outstanding installation of the new appliance. I highly recommend Evans Mechanical for the responsive and professional service! read more

Very good company. Highly recommended. They are extremely professional. Super clean. Super efficient and a great company. Highly recommend.

Don't waste your time. They're poorly thought of by other trades. Their tech's misdiagnosed the problem and charged $255. They were going to leave me without a furnace from October until a sales person could give me an estimate at the end of December. No idea when it was going to be installed. Called someone else had a new furnace the same day. read more

I have worked with Evans on a couple jobs at my home now and can recommend them for all HVAC service requirements and needs. The office staff follow up promptly in all my dealings when I have requested service, within 24 hours on each service request. My most recent service, the office scheduled an 1.5 hour window for their technician, he showed up within the scheduled time and I received an email message with his identification photo prior to his arrival. Braden was professional kind and very detailed in his diagnosis and explanations of what was required and his recommendations for the necessary services to be completed. There were even safety issues I was completely unaware of until his explanation of the diagnosis. Timely, professional and helpful in all my dealings with this company. Recommend 4 Stars a solid organization with good quality folks working for them 00637 read more

I had Evans install a new heating system in my house last week. When the estimate was done, they allocated three days for the removal of the old system and the installation of the new one. Now, I live in a home that is 100 years old and the old furnace was from the 70's if not earlier (all of the ID had long ago been worn away). Turns out my cold air return was not an actual duct but a shaft made out of paneling. You get the picture. The project did take three days and, given the kinks presented by the construction of the house, that was in record time. I cannot say enough about the creativity and hard work demonstrated by this Evans team. Thomas was the crew foreman and he, Christian and Daniel worked seamlessly together. I was impressed how Thomas not only drew out the workers ideas when faced with a problem but took the time to teach them how to do a different way to solve a problem. I picked Evans as they had managed to keep the old system working. Thanks to them I now have a new system that is up to code, functions flawlessly and should reduce my energy costs. I plan on having them return when I upgrade my hot water system. Thanks, guys...it was a pleasure to work with you! read more

Thank you for sending Braden to our home to repair our furnace. He's very professional, respectful, patient, and knowledgeable. Braden went out of his way to take the time to check our additional options when requested and explained everything clearly for the lay person. His experience shows in the quality of his work and his work ethic. We would be happy to have him working on any of our HVAC needs and would recommend him and your company to anyone. read more

Had our furnace cleaned/checked and our air filter replaced. Braden was very professional and efficient. Wore a good fitting mask and distanced himself. Got the job done in a timely manner and was very pleasant to have in our home. We trust Evans (for 17 yrs) and Matt is doing great at keeping the high standards we expect. See you next year, Evans Mechanical! read more

Evans installed a tankless water heater on my home, Sept 1922. Entire experience was good: phone contact great, scheduling good, estimator was really knowledgeable about this tricky installation, installation crew capable and kind. Had to run a new gas line under the house and drill vents thru the attic; whole job done in one day. So far the tankless heater is performing well. Expect it will continue working for years. read more

We offer enthusiastic high praise to the good folks at Evans Mechanical. It is due to their ongoing high standards of ethical and reliable service that Evans is our exclusive "go to" company for our water heating and home heating needs, and has been for years. We decided it was high time to praise them on an online review. The Evans "Gold Membership" service plan is a winner, offering considerable savings on yearly service calls, maintenance and repair parts. The quality of team members Evans sends to our home always impresses us both. They are always on time and they send a text message when they're on their way, with a photo & bio of the team member, so as to assure you of who will be coming to your home. What a great idea! It is because of Evans highly professional standards and how they back up the products they sell and the service they provide, that we've replaced both our on-demand water heater and our furnace with those provided by Evans Mechanical. 2x2 thumbs up for the Evans team! 5 stars seems like an understatement. Ann & Steve Arcata, Ca read more

It's a great time to check in on our furnace. Had used Evans before when we bought the place two years ago. Found out our Bryant furnace was original to the house and starting to have some potentially significant wear. Our technician, Sky, was knowledgeable, and explained the furnace issue in a way that was comprehensive and understandable. It all made sense and Sky could not have been more professional and delightful. Scheduled for May to get down to details on what to do next. Don't forget to look into their Gold Membership! read more

Absolutely great service and knowledge by the technician who came. I will continue to use their service.

We know we can depend on Evans to do the job correctly and efficiently. Our furnace thermostat controller was going crazy. A call to the office, and James was there within the hour. (On Friday of Labor Day weekend) Apparently, the backup batteries corroded and caused severe damage and connectivity issues. They had the replacement part in stock, he installed it and programmed it quickly and expertly. As with all the EM technicians, James was a pleasure to have in our home. I highly recommend Evans and their Gold Member service program. Will be calling them again in the fall for our annual furnace checkup and filtration cleaning. read more

Watch out for these guys. I contacted them to see what they would charge me to install one counterflow wall furnace...initially I wanted them to install one I would buy myself for approximately $1000, but they said they didn't do that I would need to allow them to supply the furnace. I heard they did good work so I decided to go through with gettting an estimate from them. The guy that came out was nice enough and seemed to know his stuff. He looked at my simple project and said he would come up with an estimate which he did, and was emailed to me within a few days. The estimate was $1740 which I figured seemed close enough to reasonable to go ahead and do it...they would not tell me how much was parts and how much was labor, but I already knew the furnace was $1000 so I figured the rest would be a slight mark up on the furnace itself plus a fair wage for the worker to do what was clearly no more than a several hour job. I called and let them know I wanted them to do the work. I got an apologetic phone call from the dude who had come to my house letting me know he had mistakenly given me a quote for what they charge for a water heater installation. Um, okay. And that he was very sorry but he would have to send out a new estimate. Ruh-roh. Hmmm I wonder how much more the new estimate would be? $3990!!!! That's how much. For a $1000 wall furnace. That is, to me, sketchy. They were ready to happily charge me nearly $3000 in labor alone for what was clearly, to anybody with any knowledge of construction at all, a several hour job. I ended up buying a different unit (which had admittedly a slightly simpler installation...maybe 1 or 2 hours less than the one Evan's quoted me on). I paid an electrician and a licensed HVAC guy a grand total of $450 (at $90 and $70 per hour) to do the needed installation: a fair and honest wage. Evan's would have seriously charged me something like $600 to $700 per hour to do this job. I feel kind of mad about that. read more

I needed a new furnace and after a few consultations with other companies, I decided on Evans. I am happy I did. Joe organized the estimates and installation. Joe was consistently attentive and responsive to questions. The day of the installation could not have gone any smoother. Joe, Dillon, and Ben were incredibly thorough, clean, and professional. read more

I chose Evans Mechanical because of their reputation when I decided to replace my 40 year old heater. It's clear that their excellent reputation is well deserved. Once I sat down with Joe for an estimate, I knew I was sold on Evans. I selected the Nest system for my smoke detectors and for my thermostat because I love gadgets. Even though it is not their typical choice, they installed them with ease. The existing attic access was too small to remove the old heater, so it had to be widened. The return was located in the stairwell to the garage, which made no sense, so that needed to be moved to the interior hallway. Everything that needed to be done was explained to me in detail and they didn't tire of my questions. Not only did they do a great job, they actually seemed to enjoy their work. The crew got along well with each other and with me in the house. The fellows were so easy going, that I know that Brad is Happy (no, really, he's so super enthusiastic that the others call him that!). Hatch aka Tuna (lead installer) led the project with skill and may start watching Homeland soon, since that's what I was watching for much of their stay. Mike (the Foreman) and Dan both love animals. They were all respectful of my sneaky and somewhat crotchety old indoor cat, Pete. Hatch even suggested, then made (free of charge) custom wall plates to lay behind the thermostat and one of the smoke detectors to stylishly hide the blemishes left on the walls from the older units. Oh! And they left the place cleaner than they found it. Happy even vacuumed one of Pete's toys for him. Thank you, guys! read more

Professional timely courteous efficient and knowledgeable. I'd give 7 stars if available. Need HVAC? They are the one in Humboldt. Done. read more

My furnace quit heating...I discovered it needed an ignighter they sold me one thats working just fine. Rachel helped me find the correct one she's great and it only cost $40 and my time to get it working again ;o) Thanks Rachel for your great service. Greg Mann read more

Our central heater went out about 3 or 4 years ago. Because we primarily rely on wood heat, we weren't as concerned about getting it fixed right away. Given some of the colder nights the past few years we decided it might be nice to have a backup because it is hard to get the house above 59 degrees when it's been 25 at night. Upon recommendations from a few other folks, we decided to go with Evans. The appointment was made for a few days after I called and Jim came out and thoroughly inspected the heater. What I was initially told the issue was was only part of the problem, and he explained everything in layperson's terms, which is helpful since I am not an HVAC person. Estimate was given, parts were ordered, and he came back the following week and did the installation quickly and efficiently. I would definitely go with them again if we had another mechanical issue that needed to be fixed. read more

This week we notified Evans Mechanical of a problem that needed immediate attention that was the result of a poor design. They have already rectified the problem and also scheduled repair of another issue noticed. Joe was very cordial and apologized for the design error. Helene read more

Excellent service. Heather in the office sent Braden out within the hour. He diagnosed the problem with my thermostat in a few minutes and had the new on on hand. He was quick, competent, and accommodating. Rachel in the office was most helpful as well. read more

Evan's Mechanical is one of the best companies with whom I've ever had the pleasure of working in Humboldt County. If I could give them ten stars, I would. Everyone associated with the installation of my new heating system was professional, courteous and conscientious about the job. All the employees are clearly customer service oriented. I began with the $97.00 diagnostic process which was necessary to determine the next step. I then met with Joe Tanno for a comprehensive consultation regarding options for purchasing a new heating system. I opted for the installation of a new Bryant 95% efficiency rate furnace which included having all the heating ducts cleaned and checked, and finally having the pipes beneath the house wrapped and insulated. They did an awesome job in all three categories. l love my new heating system!! For pet owners, this is worth noting: I was especially impressed and appreciative with how conscientious and careful everyone was with ensuring the safety of my dog. Never once did anyone fail to close the dog gate behind them when entering or leaving the house. (and they went in and out that gate many, many times throughout the job). Thank you. Finally, to top off the excellent service, upon completion of the job, the company gives to the customer a beautiful wooden birdhouse hand-made by an employee of the company. Very cool!! A sincere thank you to Joe Tanno, Justin Hatch, Andy, Tim and Rachel for your very personable and excellent service! read more

Don't balk at the $97 diagnostic fee, it might have been the best $97 I've spent. The tech took his time in diagnosis and explaining to me what he was doing. He also provided me with some great maintenance tips. I'll never hesitate to call on Evans mechanical for any HVAC need. They are not the cheapest, but they very well may be the best. read more

I could not recommend Evan's Mechanical more. Their quote was extremely competitive, hundreds of dollars below the others we solicited. They were friendly and professional, from Joe who gave our quote to the two men completing the project to the women on the phone who took our payment. Despite unexpected complications the project came through under budget. We will definitely be using Evan's in the future! read more

First let me say that the quality of work provided by these folks is outstanding. On the negative side is their pricing. In my personal opinion they charge absurd pricing compared to others. In fact they are over 35% higher for the same type of systems. My rub is that again my personal opinion is they are taking advantage with the prices they charge. read more

My mom, who has passed, paid for 3 years in advance for cleaning and checking out of our forced air furnace. She was here for the first two of them but passed before the third one was done. EM called to set up the third visit. The young man showed up on time and went to do his thing under the house. After a while he came back into the house and told me how sorry he was, but he had to turn off the heater because he had found rust on the main box that held the unit in place AND he had found a bare wire and he was afraid it might cause a real problem. But, luckily he had several brochures showing new units and he would be happy to sell me a nice new unit that would be perfectly safe. Oh yes, they had a great payment plan I could use. I told him I would get back to him on that. Later that winter day I called PGE and asked them to check it out. Stan from PGE came by and went under the house and shortly came back and turned on the unit. It fired up and began to heat the house nicely. He said that there was a bit of rust on the box but it didn't affect the operation of the unit at all. He also told me that the wire that was losing some insulation was in fact a ground wire and didn't really cause any problem being bare as it fastened to a rod that was buried in the ground. Almost 2 years later, I have a great working heater. Playing devils advocate, I wonder how many senior citizens (I was 67 at the time of the visit from EM) have been scared into purchasing a new unit from EM when there was nothing really wrong with their unit? I wont be able to use their services again, just not sure if I would trust their diagnosis again. read more

The Evans crew did an excellent job. They faced a challenge with the installation of our new furnace and ductwork and they pulled it off quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend their professional service. read more

I rate Evan's mechanical this low due to timing, diagnosis and cost of repairs to my heating system. It took 3 weeks to have Evan's come to assess my broken heater, then another week+ for them to order the part and to come to replace it. Then they brought parts to fix an air filtration system, but then decided it would be best to replace the whole thing - another week+. Then when they came to replace that part, they found another part that was not working on the air filtration system and needed to order and replace that - another week+. The cost was almost 2 x what it would have been to replace the air filtration system outright. I must say that Joe was professional and helpful and did his best to work with me as this repair dragged on and on, but I feel in the end that I paid way too much for a system that has been pieced together - more than for a new unit and I wish that Evan's had diagnosed that sooner saving time and money. read more

I wanted to get a note out regarding the service I experienced recently with Jim Nunes of Evans Mechanical. I have to say right off that I was impressed with the fact that Jim showed up early and I also appreciate the fact that he had shoe covers. I knew I was dealing with a professional within the first five minutes after Jim arrived. His friendly disposition really set me at peace regarding this job. Jim's knowledge and experience with our Bryant furnace was evident by his fast and accurate diagnosis of the problem. Jim explained the problem and informed me that he would likely have the part (control board) in his truck. The price was good and Jim even offered to get rid of some extra junk parts abandoned near my furnace (probably left over from the previous owners). Jim also informed me that I had an extra filter that was not needed for my furnace. In less than an hour our heat was fully restored--just in time for my wife's arrival from the Bay Area (she literally drove up as Jim was preparing to leave). With the cold nights we have experienced, I can rest easy knowing that our home is comfortable and that I was able to get the furnace fixed as I had promised my wife. Evans Mechanical was represented well by Jim in demonstrating what real professionalism is all about and the added benefit of having a military veteran like myself. read more

These are the best crew of plumbing and heating contractors I have ever had dealings with. I purchased a new tankless water heater and forced air heating system from them. They powered out the entire job in one day and did amazing work. Really a thing of beauty. I was so impressed I made sure to get their Gold Service Contract and was able to call them back to rehookup our sink after another contractor finished our kitchen counter. There was no charge for the service call! I am sold on EVANS and will not look elsewhere. read more

I recently purchased a Victorian home that did not have a furnace or a working duct system. Evans did an inspection, walked me through all the alternatives and did the work while I was out of town. The work was impeccable, they went over and above the initial scope of work and left my home in perfect shape. Joe, who was my main man, made the process easy to understand, took time to answer all my questions and was very personable and professional. I never thought that having a heating system installed could be such a good experience! read more

Great service. I think his name was Mitch, quick, friendly, and efficient. Thanks guys!

We had Evans Mechanical install a new furnace in our home. Our home was without heat because the wall heater had broken so we were desperate to get some heating! Joe came out and gave us an estimate and just meeting with Joe had us sold. He is so wonderful to work with! He is knowledgable in his field and was so professional and helped the process go smoothly and easily. Once they started on the job we were so impressed with how kind and hard working the crew was. They were always on time and ready to get started. Once the install was done Joe came out and walked us through how to use our new thermostat and I have texted him a few times with questions and he has responded quickly and has always been there to help us!! We are so happy with our new furnace! It has made our home so comfortable and cozy!! Thank you so much Evans Mechanical, you guys rock!!!! read more

These guys installed a gas line for our BBQ grill the other day. Super friendly, professional, fast, and got the job done for the price they quoted us a few weeks ago. Even offered to hook up the grill for us when they realized we already had the hoses. Planning on having them install a tankless water heater once we have the funds. Would recommend them for sure! read more

Sadly, I cannot recommend Evans Mechanical. I had some heater work done and some additional duct sealing was also needed, but could not be done for 9 weeks. The tech that repaired the heater(he did a good job), spoke on the phone right in front of me with the scheduler and placed me on the schedule for the first week of February, 2018. Since they hadn't called me prior to this week, I called Evans to only find out I was never put on the schedule at all. I was then told I would need to be put back on the schedule for another months wait. The scheduler acted like it was my fault, no apology. Needless to say, I am not pleased at all. read more
