We called Ecotec after another company failed to finish a job. We bought a new range and needed…read morepropane roughed in and the stove converted from natural gas to propane. The other company did the pipe work, but then told us they could not covert the range. Eco tec fit us into their schedule very quickly. They had a person call out sick on the day of our install, so they were in communication with us that they would be running behind. They performed the job quickly and even had special tools needed for the type of range we bought. They were professional and checked for any leaks before they left. I only gave them 4 stars instead of 5 because they charged for travel from their last job which they did not mention in their quote.

He was very reasonably priced for this quick job. I wouldn't hesitate to have the job done again done by him. I am in Georgia, Vt.

They came in to install a water heater in one of our properties. It was an easy and quick 40 gallon…read moretall installation. Unfortunately some copper pipe segments from the previous water heater were .misplaced. as a previously installed then removed water heater had a check valve that "Didn't go to anything" despite the copper pieces were sitting within the water heater compartment. Hence it's not a big deal as they were 2 small and insignificant pieces. We didn't appreciate the gesture though. Please be sure to have scrap copper pipes that originated at the worksite to remain at the worksite in the future. We assume it was a simple mistake. Beyond that the work was well done, organized, and quick.

Roto Router was recommended to me by a business acquaintance. Nicole, was the first person I was…read morein contact with. I found her to be so incredibly professional, caring & considerate. She provided, for me, a source of great reassurance; as I was entering this new "situation". Chris is the person who came to my home to take care of the plumbing task. On a scale of 1-10, Chris is a 12 !! His knowledge & ability, to correctly do the job, is unprecedented (in my humble opinion). He patiently explained each of his steps along the way. The overall pricing is extremely fair. I was treated w/honesty & respect. Never once did I feel as if I was being taken advantage of. ROTO ROUTER ROCKS !!

We hired Bannister's in 2012 to put on siding and a roof. A couple of years later we noticed that…read morethe facia and soffits were starting to separate and our power lines were attached We contacted Bannisters repeatedly and told that they would stop by and take care of it. They never showed up. More contacts, no response. They finally showed up to assess the damage, 8 years later and told us the damage was caused by water and they would fix it. In contacting them to find out when they would show up to do the repairs we were told they were swamped and would get to us when they could, They never came back. Then covid hit. I reached out to them again this spring and received no response at all, so I can only assume they will not make the repairs. We assume that the damage was caused from not being sealed properly. 9 years later we ended up with a house that is falling apart along with brand new windows molding and birds making their home in the holes. So even though they claim to operate with integrity and honesty, beware, as I should of! And by the way, I do not live n California, I live in Burlington, Vt.

From start to finish we found them courteous, constructive and very professional. Our job was complex and was done in two phases so we worked with two crews.

The results are beautiful--our opinion and everyone who knows or visits our home. Simply said, they are masters at metal roofing. We are very satisfied with the process and the results.

TOP NOTCH WORK AT A FAIR PRICE I can't say enough in praise…read moreof Erik and Nathalie. When my boiler suddenly stopped working, other contractors didn't even call back. Nathalie called that afternoon to say Erik would be right over, and he was! He explained what was needed and gave me a quote. And he came back early the next day, telling me I had to have heat ad hot water. They did the work thoroughly and efficiently and were a pleasure to deal with. And when my AC quit, again, Erik was there the same day. He showed me the material commonly used, which has major issues. He made a temporary fix, as the next day was to be hot, then came back to make a permanent repair. Nathalie runs the office and works with Erik when a job needs two people. They're smart and professional but also the kind of people you'd like to hang out with. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to everyone. P.S. I'm in St. Albans VT, not San Fran!

Ace has done a lot of residential electrical work for me over the last two years since I bought…read morethis 1935 house. Owner Tom Roberts personally did the first estimate before any electrical work was done. Prices are fair and work has never had to be redone because they do it right the first time. Fred & Burt did a lot of the work replacing old 2 wire outlets and upgrading the electrical panel and replacing and updating outdated switch arrangements. Because this is an old house with 1935 General Electric octopus-style overhead wiring configurations (not horizontal outlet to outlet) they had to figure a lot out using logic and troubleshooting. I had researched construction and design information about this house in a 1930's architecture publication online. These electricians figured out complex stuff that was not obvious or traditional wiring patterns. Owner Tom Roberts was a gentlemen, was patient, and took the time to explain anything that I had questions about, so I think the other review here that is very negative was written by a competitor who is trying to make Ace Electric look bad. That is dishonest. Additionally, Jada, the office manager, is efficient, pleasant, and takes care of things in a prompt matter. I would recommend Ace Electric to anyone.

Their owner Tom is completely disrespectful and extremely unprofessional I had an issue in my home…read moreregarding the electric, my home was built In 2017 and the manufactures of my home asked me to reach out to ace electrical to see if they could figure out what the problem is. Long story short ace electrical was trying to figure it out and then someone Other than Ace came to my home and fix the electric two days later. Needless to say ace electric created an invoice for the two hours of research which should be expected however I personally am not responsible for the invoice as it belongs to the third-party meaning being The builders responsibility as it was sold with a technical issue which they are aware of and are taking responsibility for. I had reached out to Scott from ace electrical to see if he can install two ceiling fans and fix some wiring which is wrong he agreed however the owner decided that he cannot come out to my home to do any work until the previous bill is paid for which is completely understandable however I never received a bill and unsure if the company has ever received one as well when I had told him that I did not receive a bill And did not have one he called me a liar that's when our conversation took a turn for the worst. Scott which is one of his employees just in for me on the phone that it went to the wrong address and that the address was just recently corrected in their system. I had told Tom that if Scott came to my house to do the work that I would provide him cash upon completion of the work As I am responsible and I pay my bills and I shouldn't be penalized for a bill that wasn't sent to me or a bill that I do not have And cannot give it to the appropriate party for payment. He then called me a liar again and said I just sent it out to you on May 24 and I repeated I don't have a bill and he said it only takes one day to get mail. What kind of person and what kindof business owner talks to a person that way? after I was disrespected I told him I wouldn't even want his company to do any work for me and he says I don't care I don't give a shit are you kidding me in a small town and not much competition do you feel superior to treat people like crap. Never in my life have I ever experience anything Like this Especially by the owner of the company just a pure disrespect and the mannerism of the owner is just unreal.Our conversation Was so rude and disrespectful that I really felt the need to create a yelp account and write a review of this business owner just because of his poor communication skills as well as his lack of respect for potential clients. Tom shame on you You can do better.
