I have come to LOVE Hobson AC! They have EXCEEDED my expectations at every opportunity! I did join their customer Home Protection Plan, and I am very glad I did! It has benefitted me in scheduling AND pricing! I had my yearly inspection/tune up with ALONSO P. He was very professional, easy to talk to, and thorough, including changing my filter. He covered his shoes and petted my doggie!! Several days later, we had horrendous storms in my area, and several of my switches and outlets had been zapped and would not work. I called for service, and JAKE S. came the VERY NEXT DAY!!! I had been added to his schedule, so it was later in the evening. Again, Jake was very pleasant, and thorough. He checked every problem I pointed out, and, lickety-split, FIXED EVERYTHING, including my high stairway pendant light and my thermostat!!! Since mishaps come in threes, my heater then began acting weird! It was tying hard to start, and if it did, would only run a minute or less. At one point, it was 59* in my house! I did not hesitate to call Hobson. (BTW, their phone is answered by a PERSON!!!! And every person to answer their phone is DELIGHTFUL AND HELPFUL!) This time, I had the pleasure to have LEO H. answer my call. WOW! Leo is beyond AWESOM! He listened to my description and then went to work. He diligently worked on my unit until he found the culprit! A tiny crack deep in one part that he showed me. Then LEO said these magic words, "I HAVE THE NEEDED PART ON MY TRUCK!!!) Wha...?! He promptly fixed it and my heater has been humming along ever since!! My home is cozy and warm. YAY, LEO! EVERY technician who has come to my home has been courteous, professional, knowledgeable, efficient and VERY pleasant to work with. I can tell that the majority of their dedicated staff are indeed MASTER TECHNICIANS! They are excellent servicemen who know their job and enjoy doing it! I trust and rely on HOBSON AC and their incredible staff! Their pricing is extremely fair and their CUSTOMER SERVICE outstanding! I HGHLY RECOMMEND Hobson AC! read more

Hobson AC - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - Weatherford, Texas

I was referred to this company by Angi for electrical repair after my house was hit by lightning. When their technician arrived (Matt), I immediately felt uncomfortable with him. He told me what was wrong and that he could fix my electrical outlets in 45 minutes. However, he quoted me a price of $1600. Outrageous. And that was only if I signed up for an extended service contract. I said I didn't want any contract and then he said the price would be higher. I felt like he was more of a used car salesman than an electrician. I said no to him and his price and then got in contact with another electrician who was very professional and kind and he fixed all my outlets and even my front porch light for $200. There is something very "shady" about Hobson. I wish I had read their other Yelp reviews before their guy showed up. read more

Service call led to my fear, wasted 60 bucks for someone to show up and quote a ridiculous price.... way over the top pricing and waste of time for both of us. 2900 for basic work is highway robbery, I have had surgeries cost less . To put this in perspective i got a second quote for 600, guy show up about 60 min after Hobs guy and had it finish in 90min, one dude, and a bag full of tools.... crazy! Hobs needed two guys, extra labor, made a complicate reason to bill for more, had a secret phone call with someone at the office (how much money can we get this guy for? Im speculating of course, but still how do you over quote 75%) Sad the world comes to this. read more

I should have yelped this company to see all of the unhappy reviews. I then would have never contacted them. I needed a kitchen sink drain basket and tail piece to be removed and replaced. No more than 50 dollars in parts( that's being on the generous side). Simple job which would take way less than an hour to accomplish. I was quoted $565 on top of the initial $129 just to come out to the property. So, let's pretend the cost of parts was $65. Labor for the simple fix was going to run $500!!! $629 in all. That's highway robbery. Very Un American. Long gone are the days of simple, honest, christ loving businesses. I'm lucky I have somewhat of an idea of what I needed done. Lord help those who don't know. This company is not of good character. They will take advantage of you. They deserve a zero star review. read more

I used them in July just for a service, ended up paying $3k for probly things I didn't need. Come to find out when I just had my hearing services, they did very short work and left something off that leaked carbon monoxide. Very shady business practices and unethical. I have had the same issue as others on here with this company billing you for some warranty and discount you don't ask them for. I paid my bill in full and didn't need any discount or warranty from them. I am contactacting the BBB and the dept of licensing and regulation. read more

Yesterday a Hobson Air Conditioning technician arrived to repair my Central AC System. He said that I need a whole new system because my compressor is drawing to many amps and because I'm low on refrigerant meaning I have a leak. I asked him how much to recharge my AC and he quoted $3000 for 7 pounds of refrigerant. Online I can buy 25 pounds of refrigerant delivered for under $300. The next day a salesperson showed up. He liked to talk a lot but wasn't good at listening. He refused to talk about the price gouging or technicians findings. He wouldn't let me talk and was frustrated when I brought BBB reviews to my wife's attention. He stormed out of the house rather than defend Hobson Air Conditioning BBB complaints. read more

Used this company recently to inspect the A/C and Electrical of a home to be purchased. Asked the representatives to focus only on what needed to be repaired. Verbally....most items were minor but later the company provided invoices for over $11,000 of items that were not required repairs but clearly beneficial for the company profits. This scared the buyer who walked away from the home. Called the company twice and asked to speak with supervisor (Mark W) or the owner and did not receive a call me back which is telling...no one cares about customer feedback at Hobson AC! If you are looking for honest and reliable service, my opinion would be to call someone else. PDK read more

Thank you Hobson AC for your services yesterday. Ian arrived on time, was very courteous and professional.

Watch out for shady billing practices... If they can't get in touch with you, they will KEEP BILLING YOU even with no payment method on file. Also be prepared for never dealing with the same rep twice, and extended sales pitches when you just need a service. Also, good luck finding a business phone number that actually goes somewhere. read more

Thank you , Tyler L. He came through for us in record time. I told him the job wasn't a rush, but I felt he made us a priority and came out on a weekend. Thank you and I know who to call next time I need some electrical work completed. read more

Hobson may have been good in the past, but now getting even a response is near imposible. After a simple tune up call, your typical upsale activity took over. Two additional Hopson employees said the parts and labor charge was not needed because of an existing warranty. Both said the Company owed a $1044 refund for unnecessary 'repair'. After many calls and unfullfilled promises we were offered a $200 settlement. Be Warned! Protect yourself. I'm going to the State Liscensing Board. read more

Mark arrived a few minutes early and after a quick chat got right to work. He kept us apprised of his findings as he ruled out possible problems. The problem was with a duel capacitor located in the outside unit. He demonstrated with an electrical device that our part was not working and promptly replaced the capacitor with one from his van. Service and parts were within range according to on-line sources; although the charge was closer to the high end. We now have cold air that was made possible by a prompt professional. read more

their service is good they are there when they promise and they do a good job in fairness to the company. Do not sign up for their service, they are high pressure for you to do so. I have tried to cancel after and there is no way out. I will not do business with them again it is not a good deal in my opinion. I downgraded the membership but they continue to charge a higher price, I have called at least three times without good results. The membership appears to be a scam Do Not sign up. read more

Had a tech come out to find out why my a/c was not blowing cold air. Story short cost to do service call was $45 which was reasonable. After about a good hour of checking system, he found the problem in the compressor hard start. It was bad. To replace it, the cost was the retail price of $340 or so with service. His first quote was $114.00 to check. My unit is 13 years old and still runs good for a Trane. The temporary fix was $345 but the trane part had to ordered from manufacturer for $550 something since they didn't carry it. The part is around $10.00. So do they make their money this way? No warranty but 3 plans to choose from. Very slick, not sure if they could have more honest. read more

Mark was out within two hours of calling Comfort Experts to ask for an appointment. I ran down what items I had already ruled out and he quickly diagnosed my transformer was out and replaced the part he had on hand for the job. Honest price and service and I won't hesitate to call them again. read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! So I foolishly asked for the $69 Tune Up. I wasn't home but my wife was to be home so they can do said tune up. Well they did the typical salesman tactic and scared my wife to thinking our AC could break any time and we needed to replace the capacitor, for a mere $282! Well the part is approximately $50 and anyone can replace it, but I was not provided that opportunity as they took advantage of my wife. Then want to say I need a safety switch on the condensate lines? Wth? It has its primary and secondary lines which work just fine because I have made sure do to previous experience with clogged lines. Then when I call to talk to a manager/supervisor, the lady who answers the phones just says she'll pass it on, but really won't or at least NO ONE will call back to make it right. Please use the small guys who you can trust and not these big companies that want to steal your money and do dishonest work. read more

Easy to deal, on time, with good pricing would easily use them again on a future job!

I paid a monthly service fee to be prioritized for service and for discounted service. When I needed them, they couldn't get to me for days and want to charge me $80 just for coming out. I called Douglass Air and they came out same day, did the repair, and charged me $80. What the hell am I paying a month fee for? Last time their repairman came out, he was rude and didn't really appear like he knew what he was doing. When I tried to cancel my agreement, they came me grief about it. Would NEVER recommend them to anyone! read more

Same company as Comfort Experts. Not the same after their dad gave business to kids. Settled with me out of court after TDLR was about to revoke their licenses -- charged for inferior non-UL parts under manufacture warranty and for parts not installed & for labor not performed. Technicians are not paid for visits and must invent problems to be paid a commission. read more

3 year history with this company: 1. Company came by and did diagnostic on very old ac unit. Recommended completely new unit and I agreed bc it was 16 years old. Company sent crew in to do work and though supervisor was very harsh and demanding (I'm military and didn't mind but relevant) did a good job. Within the first year on a NEW unit we needed repairs. They honored the 1 (weak) year warranty and fixed it. This unit still has problems and every time they came out it was 75/200 in parts and labor. ON A NEW UNIT. The last time they came out they tried selling me a capacitor that WASNT BAD bc i got a second opinion. It's worked just fine since (several months now, maybe 3/4). 2. I have a 10 year old unit to which they came out and did repairs but the problems continue to persist. Long story short they recommended a complete removal and change to a new unit for this one as well. I called the people with Company that gave me the second opinion on the new unit and they fixed the 10-year-old unit for $215 and it's worked just fine ever since. * bottom line...Nice folks that make money on selling parts but I wouldn't recommend to anyone that isn't wealthy. Lastly, I paid for their $15 remote service which is a good deal if they weren't trying to sell you parked every time they came out and I tried to stop the service and they said they have 30 days to stop the service so not only will you get charged but will get charged for the next 30 days as well. That's a rip off and I'm disputing it on my credit card. read more

Don't get caught in the $49 air-conditioning tuneup special, either. It is probable that you'll spend a lot more than $49 for the visit from the technician I had. read more

I used to use Hobson for service and repairs to my home HVAC unit, and for what it's worth the service techs always did a good job, and were very courteous. Unfortunately, after the last repair they did, I called a friend that runs an a/c business in another state and found out that the replacement parts I had just paid for were marked up a ridiculous amount. The pre-printed repair forms have pre-set prices for certain parts so the technician can just circle what is replaced and add it up, but I was charged close to $100 for a capacitor that I later found out only costs about $9 at a parts dealer across town. I ended up paying about $250 total for parts that cost about $35. Luckily I didn't have to pay the fees for the service call because I was a member of their service club, but the club charged me $16 a month. Altogether, I ended up paying Hobson about $450 in a 1 year period, and my total benefit from it all was $35 in parts, and an hour of labor. Still wanting to give them the benefit of the doubt, I asked them to quote a new unit for my house. A salesman came out, did an analysis of the house and asked me a lot of questions about what I was looking for in terms of energy efficiency, price, financing, etc. I filled out a credit app so he could check on financing for me, and then I never heard from him again. The old unit was still working, so I forgot about replacing it. I did cancel my service membership, but a year later I was still getting at least 1 phone call a month from them trying to sell me something. A year later, the unit broke down again (I repaired it myself this time) and I decided to finally replace it. I had Hobson and another company come out and prepare quotes, and Hobson quoted me a smaller unit (2.5 ton vs. 3 ton) from a brand with a lower quality reputation, and with a lower energy-efficiency rating, for almost 50% more, $8,500 vs. $5,600. They offered me financing again, but the financing terms had something like a 16% APR, wouldn't cover the full price of the system so I would have to pay tthe $2500 difference, and also required me to pay the first and last payment up-front. I went with the other company, and couldn't be happier. Hobson seems to have some good, knowledgeable techs working for them, but their pricing is outrageous. read more

Hobson/Comfort Experts replaced our old AC unit. Couldn't be happier. They were very courteous and respectful. Hauled off the old unit and all the old ducts. The unit is so quiet you can hardly tell it is on but best of all, our entire house is the same temperature. The window unit in the back room is no longer needed! We are very please with the service provided and highly recommend them! read more

They are running a special for a tuneup on the air conditioning system. I called Hobson air-conditioning to take advantage of the special. Their communication was very good. The technician was on time. They are conscious of the carpet to keep it clean. He was informative as to options for my old air conditioning system. I learned quite a bit about variation in systems and what I might do in the near future. Informative, punctual, good value. Recommended. read more

My wife called this company out, Knew before ever talking to the guy that a new unit was going to be pushed. Didn't argue because I figured if I buy a new one wouldn't have to worry for a while. Guy sold me A 13k dollar unit. said it might take a couple days might not. Wife asked if they would give us emergency ac, guy said yes if we cant install tomorrow we will bring you an ac. We bought the "gold service" package. Get up one morning heat pump is clicking and not working, call them and am told will be the next day. I figure out it is the flood switch, dry it off and get my ac working again, they come out cant find a leak, and leave (The Tech I feel was really trying to find the problem) week later does it again. this time I see water leaking down the pipe, again gonna be another day. I dry out sensor and get ac working again, happens again see water is leaking from seam at coil unit, again another call another day. I get angry because I cant get my unit to start back, explain to the lady on the phone, want to know if she can have a tech call me so we are not sleeping in the heat, She tells me NO we don't do that. Now I am very angry, express that. They do get a tech out that night and he says " we have never seen one do that, coils are probably bad, we are going to order new coils and if that doesn't fix it we will have a supervisor come talk to you" Now my ac is freezing up my wife has to thaw it out every couple hours, she calls back only to be told "You know its summer, it might take a week or so to get parts" I am very aware it is summer because my house is not cool like it should be. Thing that gets me, is on my invoice for my "gold service" it says 24/7 when wife ask about that, she is told that just means we will answer the phone 24/7 and put you in line. These people have no clue what customer service is, when I asked to talk to a supervisor the lady on the phone tried to talk over me, I am your customer paying you a lot of money, and I want you to listen to my complaint. Unreal. I will tell everyone I know to stay away from this place. You know worst part is I knew the guys was BS'ing me about my old unit just didn't feel like messing with it anymore, and I wish I had researched this company better and read the reviews. I will not make that mistake again. I feel like with a brand new unit I should not have to be fighting, and while I know they are not manf of the unit, if they are not going to stand behind what they sell, then why are they selling it. If I could give 0 stars I would. read more

We have been trying to reach Mr. Hobson for several months and Jennifer in his office has conveniently iindicated he was not available and would call back. A family member had their air conditioner go out in the heat of the summer (which was only 6 years old and still under warranty by Hobson) and they came out and put in a new compressor in the amount of over $8,000. It absolutely should have been covered and the customer should be reimbursed. I was very surprised that with this being a family owned business they would allow this to happen to another family and not even have the common courtesy to return a call. I'm sure they wouldn't appreciate it happening to one of their family members. There have been no less than 8 calls make to his office as well as a RRR letter sent to his office - so we know he is aware of the situation. They need to make this right. Unfortunately, I think that because it was a woman the technician was speaking with - that technician took total advantage of her lack of knowledge regarding an air conditioner, which how many people are well versed on air conditioners. That money was put aside for her daughter who was starting college and they stole that from her in my opinion. I truly hope someone in their company is monitoring these comments and asks for Mr. Hobson to return the call. read more

We've used Hobson/Comfort Experts for several years too. We had to replace a poorly installed unit that rusted out in 5 years that a competitor installed. The new unit and subsequent service agreement have been wonderful. We always get quick service and the ladies have always gotten appointments for us when we call. No long waits to date and the technicians are always helpful and polite. They always "suggest" potential issues to address but are not pushy about replacing parts that are not bad. They have been refreshing to deal with. We hope to use them in our new home. Highly recommend this company for your heating and air conditioning needs. read more

I had Hobson/Comfort Experts install a new hi efficiency HVAC system in my house about 2 years ago and my electric bills are about 1/3 of what they used to be. I highly recommend them. read more

Hobson AC - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - Weatherford, Texas

We are running away from Hobson Air/Comfort Experts... Called them last week to let them know my unit quit working so they say that'll be $69 when I say doesn't it have a tuneup on it she says yes it does, tech comes out says capacitor is our charges us 300 for $65 part. Tech then says that's not all seems you have other issues an he can fix it for $900 + an no he couldn't guarantee that it wouldn't go out in a couple of months that it would be a bandaid fix an we could look at replacing this unit @ $6000+. Husband said no do not pay them the $900, we will get another opinion . Still don't have ac after one week an we are both seeing red after all the money (29 a month for 2 yrs) we've paid them only to go thru bs when temps are in the 90s. We are done! read more

I just had to invest in a new unit and everything Riley H. promised with installing it all in one day, making my home cooler again was spot on. The installers were all courteous and did a good job as they worked in 100 degree heat. Thank you Hobson Heating and Air for your prompt service. read more

Hobson Comfort Experts responded to our service call when the a/c compressor stopped working. The issue was diagnosed and repaired in less than 30 minutes. We have been customers for over 5 years. Highly recommend them. read more

I was deceived by Hobson for the last time a few months ago, when I discovered they had actually removed refrigerant from my system on purpose in order to make me believe I had a leak!!! I had been using them for several years, paying them monthly for a platinum membership. Over the course of my membership, they put sub-optimal parts made in China into my system which consistently failed. Eventually they told me they weren't going to warranty their own work, claiming my system was at the brink of failure. However, the system itself wasn't the failure, it was Hobson. Second and third opinions revealed the truth about Hobson, and the fact that my unit has many years of life left. I didn't bother to file a complaint with the BBB because they have plenty of those already. I guess it was my mistake for not checking that out beforehand. Stay clear of Hobson. read more

BEWARE! This company came out to repair our AC after it stopped working. Told us the compressor was completely shot, and we needed $7-8k in repairs or a new unit. After the worker left, we noticed that he left our freon caps only halfway screwed back on and they were rapidly dripping freon. This seemed shady, so we called another company for a second opinion. They said the compressor was NOT broken and had the whole unit up and running perfectly within 2 hours for $500. Hobson tried to rip us off for thousands of dollars, lied about the diagnosis and left our freon dripping. Shame on you! read more

I was also deceived by Hobson's, I was told that 2 lbs of freon was included with the 59.00 service call and was advised after complettion I had to have a flyer. The solicitor from their company explained the offer and did not mention a flyer or coupon was needed and why offer it over the phone if coupon was needed. After making several calls to determine if the offer would be honored I was told no flyer no freon and would have to pay over 300.00 to recharge my ac. I would not recommend this company and it apears no one else will either. read more

I have been using Hobson Air Conditioning (Comfort Experts) for about 10 years now. They look after my system well, turn up on time, and clean up when they are done. I feel comfortable with their technicians in my house (not true of all HVAC companies!) read more

Brian S came to our house to do a general AC inspection and tune up. He did do those things but he also repaired a joint that was leaking by application of a sealant--stating that it would not leak for at least 50 years! Was very pleased with the professionalism and level of service provided. read more

When my mom's AC quit working I asked around about who I should use to check it out and the name that came up most was Hobson Air Conditioning. I had never had AC work done before (I've always rented) and neither had my mom. So I called them and made the appointment. They came out very fast. The service man spent a very long time checking out the system and pointing out current and potential problems. He was very knowledgeable and easily made me understand how everything worked. My mom's system was 35 years old he explained that the average life of any AC system is much shorter. It made more sense to replace than to repair. They installed a complete system in one day and she and I couldn't be happier. We would definitely recommend Hobson Air Conditioning. read more

RUN, RUN away from this company. Hobson Air also doing business as Comfort Experts. They installed a different full heat pump system than what the contact stipulated and refuse to replace or discount the unit they did install! So in place of a name brand good quality unit, we have a builders grade unit that has the worst reviews. Even the installer admitted he knew he was installing the incorrect unit! They come out for a meeting to "make things right" and admited they should have contaced me for approval of the different unit before installing the incorrect unit. Upon demanding they install the correct unit they (Service Mgr, Parts Mgr, and Salesmen) storm out of the house because I won't sign a new contract that night without them agreeing to fix the issue. read more
