DOUBLE YES - don't let the reviews get you. Lol! Sorry Yelp but i didn't check the reviews on here (i won't say where i looked but ratings were good). After the service was completed - i was shocked by the reviews here. I literally found this company from ad sent to my house in those value packs with coupons and this was the second business i called due to service call being so expensive and Hoover offered a coupon. (YES PLEASE) Let me just say - they were more worried about my plumbing then i was. Lol! I was very cautious of not saying it was an EMERGENCY because you know other business like to charge extra but initally when i called it was a leak pin hole leak on my pipes. The female on the phone (I don't remember her name) was trying to offer me a date which she had to move something around but i didn't want her to do anything extra since it wasn't bad (AT THAT TIME). We booked after a few hours, then my plumbing escalated - of course i called back and she was happy to fit me in. Please note their scheduling are just like cabling hours they'll give you a large window but they will be there!!! After getting a quote which John the technician who answered all my questions and we even joked a little due to the situation - I felt like I was made a priority. He came out on Friday and was able to get the work done on Monday - the two guys (Rhyan/Dustin) working on it was awesome. They didn't mine when i asked to take pictures because the worked looked so great and they were reporting everything especially if they needed to leave to run to the hardware store. I was happy with pricing and also they have a membership which will give you a discount along with other benefits which covers future services calls as well. Get it!!! They send you a FULL REPORT with pictures of the finish job and not just one - everything area. Will i be using them in the future?! YES and i'm a VIP member. Lol! Happy plumbing!!! read more

I am stunned at the bad experience with this company! I had worked with Hoover for plumbing and had a good experience. They talked me into "coverage". They came out to inspect my HVAC prior to the start of the air conditioning season. The technician spent all of his time evaluating the furnace and immediately indicated there was a crack in the Heat Exchanger and told me it needed to be replaced. Tried to show me the "crack" but it was difficult to see. When the tech came back with the sales guy the next day-he kind of back walked the fact that there was actually a crack. All they wanted to focus on was replacing the whole HVAC system and slamming the brand currently had and the company I had servicing this system. My BS detector was going off at this point. I had another reputable HVAC evaluate the unit and was told it did not have a crack in it and did not need to be replaced. All Hoover wanted to do was upsell and focus on selling me a newer side exhaust A/C unit. The inspection was 100% an opportunity to generate a sale only. Even after I very clearly indicated I did not want to replace right now. Think twice before engaging these folks. read more

Blake is quite an asset to your company. I couldn't be more pleased with his service. He was professional, quick, and very informative. I truly enjoyed listening to not only his diagnosis of my furnace, but everything that Hoover can provide, including electrical, plumbing, vent cleaning, etc. He explained the maintenance program, but was not pushy in anyway. Blake went over a multiple step inspection list that covered everything about my furnace. Items I wasn't even aware of. Excellent employee. I'm very much looking forward to working with Hoover with all the services they offer. Thank you, K. Obrien. read more

Never deal with Hoover again. They installed a system in 2017, and now they're saying they never even sold it to me. Then I asked for an estimate to replace it and they want to charge 16k. The estimate guy and I looked up the part and it's a $3200 part. Even if I accept a markup to $6000, they couldn't tell me where the extra $10,000 is going. I'll take a fair price, but you can't even justify the price you're giving me, then you are a scam. On top of that, they started to berate my wife when she called about the estimate. They don't deserve my time or money. If I gotta spend $16,000, I'd rather pay it to a place that can justify their price and treat their customers like they want their money. read more

Way over priced! My current yplumber said I should file a law suit due to the way over priced work they did

Very good and professional Ryan was very fast and understanding .They came the day they said and did great job read more

We called them because they offered a coupon in our value saving pack. Had an AC problem. He came out and ran a diagnostic test and told us we had a system leak in our 5 year old system. He proceeded to tell us our repair might not fix the problem but he would add sealant and recharge the system for $1836. This will include a check next spring but if there was additional leakage he would have to search for parts. We declined the repair and paid for the in door fee and the diagnostic fee of $238. We then called another company who we paid $300 and the air is working fine. read more

We had another service in to remove a wall fan in our kitchen the day before. Unfortunately, the other service did not send an electrician, and they left live wires in the wall and an electrical receptacle without power. We discovered the powerless receptacle after the prior service provider left. Since we weren't impressed with the initial service provider, we reached out to Hoover Electric for assistance. They sent Shane to help that very day. The office staff called back at around 8am, and by 2pm Shane arrived to take a look at our problem. The first thing he did was provided a free home electrical inspection. That was a bonus! Next, he fished the wires out of the hole in our wall. I'm so glad we called them, because the caps the prior service provider placed over the live wires actually came off in the walls! He fished the caps out, and then the wires came out! Anyway, he confirmed the wiring was live, and being an experienced electrician, he immediately knew what the problem was! He figured out that the old wiring in our home ran from an electrical outlet under our kitchen window, directly to the fan. Years later, the homeowners wanted another outlet. They ended up running a line from the fan, down to the outlet that stopped working! I never would have guessed that. Well, our house is old, and did not have sufficient space to place a normal junction box or outlet. However, Shane was able to figure out a way to put in a GFCI circuit. Now we have an electrical outlet where the fan used to be, and both outlets work. Perhaps it is not ideal having an electrical receptacle so close to the ceiling, but it works for us. He even told me how we can finish fixing up the hole in our wall from the fan. That will be our weekend project! We'll be calling this company back for other home projects! read more

My furnace went out due to the motor blower. They quoted $3,000 which is obscene. The company that replaced it thinks that price is outrageous and if we were being quoted for a new furnace. Don't trust this company. read more

I too had Cody show up on the $89.00 drain inspection special, 45 minutes later he worked up an estimate for nearly $1000.00 to vent my kitchen sinks because that was the problem, not the drain. He didn't even look inside the plumbing. Thankfully he wasn't able to do it that day and we rescheduled for the next business day, giving me an opportunity to think the problem through. The next day I dug out my 20 year old spring drain snake and disconnected the trap, hand snaked out about 10 feet of the drain, reassembled everything and PRESTO! It was like new again! My only suggestion is, if you can't do the work, get a second estimate. read more

had a drain issue repaired and installed a new replacement laundry sink. there were some issues with the sink and when I called them to evaluate the issue. they sent their tech named Brad. He gets my vote for their employee of the year. he was beyond professional and far exceeded what was asked for and expected. will use Hoover in the future THANKS! read more

Just a bad experience. They tried to sell me 6300 dollars in repairs to fix what another plumber fixed for 225 dollars. Then they sold me a premium membership for 149 to fix all my plumbing needs. When I called them for a backed up dishwasher a few weeks later, they said if it's not connected to the main drain, they don't fix it. I asked for my 149 dollars back but I was told that was non-refundable. Of course they will say they offered the best option to unclog my drain, but did they? I would just get a second opinion read more

Charged me $300 More than what they told me they would. We agreed on a price. This was not an estimate. Their rate comes out to about $600 an hour which is insane. read more

Called this company for a quote for installing a Ring Doorbell. Whoa. Very overpriced. Absolutely did not expect a quote for almost triple the others. Stay away from this overpriced company read more

A rep came out to my home for an estimate. He claimed to put a snake down my basement utility drain. He told me it was a hole in the pipe underground and my basement will need to be dug up. The $149 I paid will go toward my new bill of $5800. I got a second opinion. The company charged $75, and my drain was clear in 25 minutes. The company are scammers, robbers with poor ethics. Do not trust this company! read more

Now 7/28- I am being blown off by Scott, the rep who assured he would refund the money. he had wanted me to remove my original review in exchange for the refund. I decided to wait for that refund first to see if there was any integrity in these people and company. Obviously my guts were right in knowing that they were simply lying. Today, Scott said he would look into this, claiming that the check was processed over two weeks ago, but obviously not sent. What more cockamamie stories can he come up with? Update 7/27 - here we are at three weeks and no refund has been issued. I am told that the check is processing, but it should not take over three weeks for a check to be received or a refund to be made. If it does, Then there's something wrong with the company system. Again, the company's reputation, integrity, and credibility are in question.Update7/3- I received a call from the company, and they were gracious enough to refund me for service that was not truly completed. I appreciated that gesture and the integrity of the company.***In order to resolve a water leak from the AC unit that was occurring in the basement near the furnace, the technician didn't even bother to open the casing to look at what was really going on. He just stuck his hand in, took a picture, and then tried to show me that everything was rusted and required and new AC unit. All he was trying to do was sell a new unit along with other services and appliances. He did absolutely nothing for $149. When I had DTE Come to do the same service, The only issue was that the pipe was clogged and needed to be released in order to stop the leak. That tech opened the casing and there was no rusting whatsoever. He just saved me $7000.. It is clear that this Hoover company is out to simply sell services and appliances probably on commission. read more

My husband called them for a light fixture installation in our front entrance. Gave us a quote, installed the fixture, messed up my house, didn't clean up, ruined my new carped by dragging around boxes which had blue ink on it and now its ruined. He had me sign the charge quote and I thought it was the actual original quote of $503 (which is overpriced as it was but ok). The second charge was verbatim " 14' ladder required for installation" $349.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $349.00 for a tool he needs and uses for the job!!! Its like me charging for a pen i use when dealing with clients!!!! Wth is wrong with these people!!!!!? I need that ladder in my garage since I paid for it or refund for ladder use.

SENIOR CITIZENS BEWARE my mother 83 yrs old had no heat, she called Hoover because they installed her boiler 7 years ago, the tech was there for 20 min and said boiler is bad, so he quoted an new boiler at $12,700, (the one 8 years ago was $6800. So my mom used her cred card to leave a 3500 deposit, when I asked if the $299 service call will go towards the new boiler he said no WOW JUST WOW, SO I called a friend of mine with his own heating and cooling and said $12700 seems a bit high, he said he would come out and give an estimate tomorrow, so he came out and said boiler just needed cleaning and looks like its been about 5-6 year since cleaning, my mom had the last maintenance done 3 years before (apparently they ripped her off again) my guy also said its a 50000 btu boiler and the hoover maintenance guy said she gas a 100000 btu boiler and was going to sell her a 120000 btu, frigging scammers, we canceled and i called the manager the next day unreal 83 years old trying to steal from her, dont go there they suck read more

Tech did a good job with removing and installing a garbage disposal I purchased ahead of time. I'd give him 5 He was at the home for one hour. I was charged $400. Was told on the phone that there is an $89 charge to come out and give estimate for work to be done and that it would be deducted if we had the company do the work. Not only was the $89 not deducted , but when I called to inquire about the price, I was told "no, the $89 is not deducted" and I'm "not just paying for a Tech to come out and do the work", I'm "paying for the office staff , liscenses they need to do thier job, vehicle gas, and the tools the tech uses"! Fair warning to future customers thinking about doing business with this company. Think again. read more

Elderly beware! I would not recommend this company if you are elderly because you will be taken advantage of. Removal of a toilet to clear a clog (of drugstore glasses) and reinstall the toilet came to $1024 The plumber even asked if he could sell a new toilet to boot when the toilet was fine except for the clog. I am aware that most plumbers work with a commission plus base salary This extortion of the elderly is disgusting because most will not challenge or question when presented with a fee due to needing the repair They feel powerless and just want it fixed. Call another plumber and avoid this company! read more

Most of the techs are professional & seem to be very good at what they do. I feel comfortable with the quality of their work. But the company's business practices seem questionable- they are very pricy for their services compared to other providers - they majorly try to up sell all the time. Also they have sent me 6+ 10% off coupons (personally addressed to me) but refuse to accept them when presented. (They have done a lot of work for us $15k+ this year) I do not plan to use them again. read more

Upcharging, lack of transparency. My dad had scheduled an inspection for our central air. The quote for the inspection was $89 however when Cody got there he did some very brief work on maintaining an HVAC wire and then quoted $240+ just for that + inspection. In addition he said with the 2lbs of coolant the price would be just shy of $1000. He did not provide us with a receipt of the work (forced to pay for the $240+ even though the work was not agreed upon). We later called another place to get another opinion and paid over 3x less. Maybe we just got a bad employee but we clearly would not recommend this business in the future. read more

I called Hoover for a simple garbage disposal replacement and possibly a insta hot machine removed. They charge $89.99 for a quote. Kyle sat on my floor telling her I had major plumbing issues. Wanted to make an instance claim. Never gave me a written quote but just for the disposal was over $900. He said they charge over $680 an hour. Said my pipes were backwards. Wanted to make an insurance claim and gave me an over inflated verbal idea of the cost of thousands. I offered to pay the 89.99 and asked them to leave. Called Nick Schram who is licensed. He did both the disposal replacement and insta hot removal for $375 including disposal. There were no issues regarding my pipes being wrong. No other issues no insurance claims!. read more

I called Hoover electric this morning because my brother had lost all power to his entire house last night. He had a friend come over to install a dishwasher and somehow all of the power blew- even to the main circuit board. Hoover electric came out right away when I explained to them that my niece was on a ventilator and had to be moved out of the house because she had to have electricity so she could plug in. They are very friendly and efficient. I would highly recommend! read more

I have old broken pipes under my home. No idea how long everything was being flushed under the home but 1 day is too long. Clean up is so expensive and Westley was like no problem! I got this.

I wish I could give zero stars. These people were subcontracted by the project manager. He tells me that he will never subcontract to them again. Where to start? Was it.. --the damaged floor? --the burnt cabinet? --the inability to recognize which way water flows? --the inability to identify the main water shut-off valve? --the damage to a valve unrelated to the job at hand? --the helpful removal of spare parts without my permission? --the mess left behind? There are so many things that went wrong that were caused by this company that I heartily recommend that you never, ever, ever use them for any job. If you find out that a contractor has subbed a job to them, refer the contractor to me and I will be happy to provide pictures and descriptions of the damage they caused. read more

Love these people! We needed an A/C unit for my home. Called for an estimate and Cody? Came quickly and gave us a good price that we didn't even request more quotes. The 2 installers were great.

I had an issue with my sump pump discharge line in by backyard not draining and was coming out of the overflow pipe every time that the sump pump ran. I called Hoover out to take a look at the issue and they sent Garon over for an inspection of the issue. After inspecting in the issue for me we found that there was a calcium blockage in the discharge pipe underground. Garon gave me my options and as suggested I go with trying to descale the pipe to clear the blockage which I did. Travis and Matt came out to the house a few days later and spent the entire day working on clearing out debris and calcium from the pipe that had been built up of the years going above and beyond to get it cleaned so that I would not have to further spend to dig and replace the drain line. Their effort saved me a lot of money in the long run and I truly thankful for the effort they put in. I would highly recommend giving them a call for service. Glenn D. read more

I called Hoover to come out and look at the new furnace they installed few months back, the issue was very simple, I got confuse on programming the thermostat so heat pump start working with AC runing in the middle of winter, so my wife and I decided to call Hoover since we are VIP Member, ($364) cost me to reprograming the thermostat. called to complain about the price being so high, Scott called me back and said this is the price we charge base on the serivce you had. After reading everyone's comments, most of you had prices issue with them which makes me feel, I'm right. Anyway! say good bye to my VIP member and never use their serivce again! read more

I called Hoover to schedule an appointment with an electrician. They told me that they would send someone out the next day and they would call me 30 minutes before the person arrives. They couldn't give me a window of time or even a ball park estimate of what the service would cost. Just that there is a $89 charge that would be deducted if I decided to have the electrician do the service. I stayed home from my work office and called Hoover again around 10am to ask if there was a time frame they could give and was told that they would be calling me between 12pm-2pm. I continued to wait for someone to call me. By 3pm, I called again and was told that they did call but because there was no answer, they cancelled my appointment. They claimed that they inputted my phone number in their system incorrectly (yeah right) and if I would like to be added to the schedule tomorrow. Are you kidding me? I waited all day for a call and then was asked if I wanted to potentially waste another day at home waiting for someone to call? This is highly unprofessional, and I have never been put on a technician's schedule without a time or at least time window. This is completely unreliable and insensitive to customer's time. I would prefer to be told that their schedule is booked and to give me a reliable appointment time when it is available. That would be more genuine. I will wait to do business with a company of integrity and professionalism. Do better Hoover. read more

Unbelievable. Typical cost to install a new outlet is $150. I've had this exact work done multiple times in the same home. Hoover charges $60 to come to the home with the promise that that charge would go toward the work. They then gave an estimate of $650 for a 10' run of cable for a new outlet off an existing line! This is criminal. The racket here is partner with Home Depot, go on as many calls as possible and do as little actual work as possible. If the work is agreed upon it is a 4x markup of what it should be. I will be filing a complaint. read more

Sent person, Dustin, through contract by Home Depot & a 3rd party DRFtps. Com a property contractor Anil Pal calling selves water solutions advisor. The whole thing was a ripp. Dustin never took water heater apart, was too busy talking non stop. Looked 12. He wasnt even going to do a D&C he never sent actual quote just said $1600 for new water heater. Charged mom n me $281.00 and theres no hot water in a pandemic. We had some hot water and now none. Dont go through them I'm reporting them and their services to the trade division whichever it is and more. And they screwed over a widow of veteran. read more

The thermostat in our home stopped working due to a cut wire in the basement. This unfortunate incident left us without a working thermostat and, therefore, no heat. We called Hoover Electric who installed our new furnace in March 2020. The technician arrived on time, was polite, and figured out the problem right away-he estimated the cost to be $600 which we approved- although thought the cost was extremely high. He fixed the issue by installing a new wire between the thermostat and furnace. He finished the job in approximately two hours. With the cost being so high, we contacted the office supervisor and asked how 20 feet of wire and two hours labor could possibly cost $600? Scott called us back about our concern and he told us that a technician's time can cost up to $500/hour. We researched online for the average cost/hour for this type of technician in our area and it ranges from $65-$120/hour. This is according to fixr.com and HomeGuide.com. There are other companies in our area. We will NOT choose Hoover Electric, in the future. read more

They only service "certain" zip codes in Detroit, which are selected based on "proximity to where their technicians live".

My hot water heater blew so I contacted Hoover and they came to my house to give me a quote for a new heater installation. SERIOUSLY overpriced. I got the job done through Lowes for a little more than 1/2 of what Hoover quoted me. They charged me 60 bucks for the visit and quote but no matter, I still saved a bunch of cash by NOT having them do the job. Agree with Ted S's review below. Their pricing is totally non-transparent. I asked for a breakdown of water heater cost vs labor which the technician was unable to provide. Very happy with my decision to have my job done through Lowes instead. read more

If they'd just serviced our furnace like we called them out to do, I'd give them five stars. However, we had a 2.5-year-old furnace installed by another company, which had no appointments for a month, so my husband called Hoover to come out, because they were available the following week (something like that). Hoover showed up, did the inspection/service and told my husband our 2.5-year-old furnace was the wrong size for the house. If we were lucky it might hang on a few years. As I was leaving work my husband called with the bad news. I put the phone on speaker and let him talk. He gave an explanation, then said our current furnace might last a year or two. By the time I got home I was a bit fried, said give us a quote in case we do decide to replace the thing. In the meantime I would contact the original company and have them take a look. Before we left the Hoover guy told us his estimate for new furnaces (he gave several options) were good for 30 days, and we might be lucky and the existing furnace could last the winter. He also said prices might go up in the new year, so that was something to keep in mind. With covid and labor and supply shortages it sounded plausible. But we were tired and a bit shellshocked. I did some research, asking around. Everyone seemed to indicate the furnace we had was the right size for our home. I called the original installer and had them came out. They ran some diagnostics and did a small patch job which should fix the error reading that came up. They also reminded us the furnace itself is still under warranty (even though the labor warranty had expired). I don't know if the guy from Hoover was working under commission or if he was new and made some mistake in calculations. That he kept shortening the potential lifespan of our furnace was a red flag, however. read more

Paid $80 for an estimate on our air conditioner. Was quoted $1750. Called another company and was informed I was being grossly overcharged and they will now be doing the work for us. So, Hoover=$1750 and the new place, that comes highly recommended, =$700. Hoover got $80 out of me but they wont get a cent more. read more

Their prices are very high, found them through Home Depot. They said they are high because they guarantee everything but don't most business do that? Plus, they put in a hot water heater for us and put a huge company sticker on our furnace which we did not buy from or had serviced from them????? I tried to peel it off and am still working on it. They also put their sticker on the Hot Water Tank but that is understandable. HWT is working fine, no complaints about actual service. read more

Called Hoover Electric to Replace my ac unit, when Scott arrived he gave me a quote to replace all my Existing Equipment. With all high efficiency units ( furnace, AC unit and hot water heater).

I was impressed with how quickly they were able to get the job done. Frank P. read more

Hoovers' service costs our outrageous. They are deceptively hiding the start-up costs from customers. You have to pay $89 before they will come to your house. When they come to the house and give you a final cost to pay. Your cost + $89.00. They charged total $355.00 for a simple replacement of hardware in toilet tank. Then they wanted to charge $3,000 for capping an outdoor spigget. We decided not to use them for the latter as the cost was just obscenely high. Unless you have a lot of money to burn, stay away from Hoover. read more
