Five stars for Jim! He responded right away and arrived the next day to check our furnace. He truly went above and beyond during a really bad time for us, doing everything in his power to help. Jim is honest, highly knowledgeable, and took extra time to give us great insight as first time homeowners. You can tell he deeply cares about his clients. Highly recommend! read more

I highly recommend Jim and his company. He is honest, efficient , trustworthy and reliable. He came out to us within an hour of my call to him and had us up and running within an hour! Thank you so much Jim. We need more honest workers like you! read more

Stay away from these guys or at the very least get multiple quotes. I called trying to get an estimate to replace a boiler when it suddenly died and we had no hot water (and a small child). Talked to Jim and he was nice at first until he was supposed to come for the quote and something I said made him thinking I was getting the job quotted by more than one person. I wasn't getting multiple quotes, in fact I was having a hard time finding anyone who actually dealt with boilers. He specifically said he wasn't interested in coming to give a quote if others were involved and when I tried to tell there weren't any others he basically hung up on me. Called him back immediately 2x and left messages with 0 response. Completely unprofessional. If I was actually bidding the job out (which I wasn't) only someone with something to hide would be that concerned so be wary of any quote you get from these guys. Crazy shady and frankly glad we found someone else ‐‐------------------ Jim, in response to your reply you should check your messages again. Here's the text message I sent you after you hung up on me and after I called you back to try to explain and you refused to answer. Its clearly sent to the number you listed... read more

Leipart Heating and Cooling - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - Joliet, Illinois

The best service ever. Jim is very responsive. We requested a quote on our broken water heater pipes late at night. He replied around midnight & was willing to explain what needs to be done & the price range. Jim came to fix our pipes the next day, although it was late at night since he got stuck with another project. Jim was very friendly, caring and dedicated to having the job done right. We're so glad that we found Leipart heating & cooling. Will definitely use his company again for any heating & cooling needs. read more

In all of my years I have never worked with a better company then Leipart. They truly make you feel like family and in my opinion they are trustworthy, fair, and genuinely concerned in your families well being. I had Leipart replace our entire HVAC system and I couldn't be happier with both the equipment used and the crew who that did the job. My thanks to Jim Leipart for all of his kindness and help. Gary and Kathy jordan read more

I have used Leipart for years. Jim is always accommodating to the needs of the service call. Whether it be for a furnace/ AC annual clean&check or a service outage. He's very knowledgeable and skilled. He's always polite and takes time to explain what was needed. His prices are more than fair. I have referred family and friends to Leipart and all have been equally satisfied. read more

Leipart is amazing, when my brand new furnace died due to previous home warranty company sending unreliable HVAC people, Leipart came same day, set me up with a brand new furnace, and even properly secured and re-routed new drain piping. read more

Gone baby gone... had an air conditioner and heat pump put in for 9,000.00. Will not and doesn't stand behind his work. First off heat pumps don't work here in Illinois and they really don't work if you don't put the "heating element" in the heat pump. Now he is not in business anymore?? Can't fix it because of his back. Im out the money with no heat. Good luck suckers read more

Jim was extremely responsive and honest. He took the time to explain the problem and fixed it quickly. I will definitely recommend to all my friends and family. Thanks again Jim! read more

Arrived home tonight to find our AC not working and a blank screen on the thermostat. We called another HVAC place first and got sent to an answer service... So we moved on to Leipart. I'm so glad we did! The phone was picked up, and within 30 minutes we were told that someone was on their way. Jim and Eric arrived not long after and set to fixing our issue. Both guys were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and thorough. They fixed our issue, gave us a thorough rundown (with demonstration) of all the ways we could improve our current system, and charged a really reasonable price to boot. They are now absolutely our go to people for HVAC issues. Jim and Eric, thank you so much for helping us out. Sorry you had to deal with the crispy mouse!! read more

My heat went out during the arctic blast this year. Leipart responded with quick and professional service. Prices are very reasonable and they take the time to explain everything they are doing . Would highly recommend their services. read more

Our furnace was acting up a few weeks before I was due with our second child. It was the first cold spell of the season, so Jim was super busy, but he made sure to get to us as quick as he could. He took such good care of us. It was in fact not our furnace, but our thermostat that was the issue. He swapped out our thermostat and we were good to go. Jim is an awesome guy who is honest, and truly values his customers. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing HVAC work done! read more

Just had this company come out for a clean and check. I have to admit I'm very impressed. They checked everything in the furnace then explained why certain things had to be looked at. Since calling for the appointment to when they left my home, they have been very honest. Some companies charge you for things you don't need but the two guys that showed up, Jim and Brent have educated me on a few things and saved me money. My homeowner knowledge is a little sharper now. I will be calling these guys again for projects on my to do list. read more

My A/C Capacitor was blown and the fan stopped spinning. I called these guys once again, and they got the whole repair done in less than 30 minutes. Jim is the shizzle. As for that $150? I wrote him the check in a heart beat. read more

We have used C&J a few times now. I must say they are awesome to work with. Always prompt,courteous and hard working. I really believe they want the best for their customers. Our sump pump went out today and they rushed out got to work right away and had it running in about forty five minutes. I highly recommend them and will never use anyone else but C&J. read more

You will not find a more honest and knowledgeable company, this is a military veteran owned and operated company and the pride and work ethic show. Jim I hope I can send your company to everyone I know who needs services. I only wish theses guys worked on the whole house so I could keep an honest worker employed. I will not go anywhere else. You don't find a company like this to often read more

The serviceman tried really hard to get my old unit going. He spent 2 hours and showed me what he was looking at and the parts that were bad. He also called for help to try other solutions. I was impressed. I will call them again. The price was very fair. read more

Yelp for the win! Every once in a while you come across someone like Jim, who truly cares about customers and is super reliable! Our AC wasn't performing so hot and Jim came to the rescue! We'll be using Leipart Heating and Cooling from now on! read more

I'm so happy that I went onto yelp and found this company. I didn't notice that the temperature in my house was dropping until my dog started barking and acting weird. I went to check the thermast and increased the temperature just to see if the furnace would kick on but it didnt. Then I got nervous... only a few days from Christmas and money was low. I read the reviews on this company so I called. The owner, Jim came out within an hour and diagnosed & fixed my furnace within minutes! He was very knowledgeable and explained the components of the furnace to me. The price was well worth it any day for peace of mind and heat. I will definitely use this company again. read more

I had Leipart out a couple months ago, but I'm just finally finding some time to get my review in. It was your typical "It's the hottest day of the summer and of course my air would go out today" situation. I called a few different companies and Leipart was the only one that (a) answered the phone and (b) could get someone out in a couple of hours. The guys came out as well as the owner as he happened to be in the area. They were able to diagnose and show me the issue with the system very quickly. They attempted to repair the damage but were very thorough in the explanation as to why the unit could not be salvaged and even took photos of the damage for training purposes...again they were very thorough with everything. Once the unit was replaced, they walked me through a few things with in and even came inside to measure the air coming out of the vents to ensure everything was working properly. They had a more-than-fair price and were very efficient and professional in their work. I would recommend this business to anyone who is need of any heating/cooling repair. Thanks guys! read more

I would give this company 6 stars if I could. My husband and I knew we would be needing a new water heater in the near future and called C & J Plumbing Service because of the good reviews. We were impressed with his honesty and they happened to be running a special so we made an appointment. They were prompt and did an excellent job! The water heater was in worse shape than we thought! I am so glad I called this company and will call them for future heating and air needs as well. Finally someone we can trust!!!!!! read more

We got home and found a significant amount of water on our basement floor. At 10:30PM we called hoping to leave a message to arrange service for the next day. However, no message was needed. Jim answered the phone! Jim gave my husband a few things to try to fix the problem but they didn't work. So we called him back. He wanted to come out that very night because he didn't want us to be without AC due to the extreme heat! How's that for service!? He and a tech arrived at our house around 12:30AM and had our AC in working order at 2:00AM for a reasonable rate. Knowing that Jim is so agreeable and knowledgeable, I'm much less concerned about our 29 year old HVAC unit! If you're having problems with your HVAC unit do yourself a favor and quit reading reviews! Go call and ask him for his help! read more

Man I love yelp! Once again I found this place on yelp after my central air unit stopped working. And I tried to schedule a time after work to have them come out. They couldn't guarantee me the time I wanted, which I understood but they did say they would definitely be out to look at my unit that day. When they arrived it was the owner with a couple trainees. Luckily it was only a part that was broken and needed to be replaced. And Jim had it repaired in no time. Plus he was extremely knowledgeable about air conditioners and shared info with me that I wasn't aware of. It's refreshing to encounter a repair person that is honest and knowledgeable. This will definitely be my recommendation for anyone that needs any of these services. read more

Call and use these guys if you want an honest assessment of what needs to be done and quality work at a reasonable price. Brent was the technician who came to our house just a few minutes after 9 when I was given a 2 hour window of 9-11 (Thanks!). He explained each step he was taking to troubleshoot the problem in addition to explaining how each part works and why it may be the root cause. It turned out to be a minor issue that he was able to correct and explained how to prevent it going forward. He was honest and came off more interested in correcting the problem vs trying to gouge me with parts/services I didn't need. Once he had determined what needed to be done, I knew from a previous vendor (name withheld) that my other furnace required work which cost me ~$900 and refrained from doing because I didn't trust them and the part hadn't failed yet. I had Brent take a look at it and not only was he able to fix it within the hour (last vendor it took 2 days), it was considerably less than the previous vendor who I had felt took advantage of the situation I was in at the time. He also helped troubleshoot some issues I had with my humidifiers and got both of them up and running again for me. I've found my HVAC vendor going forward and highly recommend others to use their services as well. Thanks so much! read more

These guys helped us out of the sweltering heat....literally. We had been burned (pardon the pun) by a previous HVAC company that did a very shoddy job the last time they serviced our AC unit. Leipart Heating and Cooling told us exactly what needed to be fixed and what we needed to do going forward. Unfortunately, it looks like a complete overhaul of our HVAC is what is ahead of us, but what they did and explained to us made me feel more comfortable with the path moving forward. read more

I previously posted a negative review with this company, but Jim the owner reached out to me and went outside the box. He apologized for the mistake of one of his technicians, and reimbursed me for what I paid the other company to fix my furnace. He also told me that his wife will mail me a check to get a refund for what I paid them when they diagnose my furnace. I am also a professional and in my line of work, I also make mistakes (we all do), and when i make those mistakes, i own it and take full responsibility for it! Jim did that today, and with that, apology accepted!!! read more

Great experience. Our air conditioner went out, 95 degree day, late in the day on Saturday. Jim the owner, picked up the phone, when I described the problem, he said he may have a tech in the area to stop by. Called me back, said his tech was already on the way to another customer, but said that he would be out personally to repair. Jim went through the diagnoses, turned out just to be the condenser, repaired, cleaned up the unit, and topped off the refrigerant. Very professional knowledgeable, and responsive. These guys are the first one to call when you have heating/air problems. read more

I want to give them 5 stars for not leaving me in a bad situation, when it was hard to find the right team to fix a problem. The problem is that I have a perfectly working equipment that was not properly installed, and is in needed of being re-installed. When other companies presented me with a single option of completely replacing the unit, which is very costly, Leipart Heating and Cooling helped me by steering me in the right direction. They were really dedicated and spent some time to find the best solution. Per their advise I contacted the manufacturer, who gave me contacts of contractors servicing that particular unit in order to re-install it. I am working with them now. None of them were trying to sell me a new unit instead of the old working one. read more

I wish I could give them 100 stars!!! Jim and company just saved us well over $5,000 by HONESTLY diagnosing an issue with our central A/C on a home we recently purchased. On the recommendation of a neighbor, we had another company out in the midst of a heatwave and they said our unit was completely shot and that we needed a brand new $5,000 condenser. We almost made a hasty decision because it was nearly 90 degrees upstairs in the house. Thankfully we decided to get a second opinion from Leipart Heating and Cooling. Jim and company came out and had us up and running in about 45 minutes by fixing a shoddy wiring job that the previous homeowner did. They also replaced a fuse that was the wrong kind. He also clued us in that the premium air filter we had in was actually damaging the system more than it helped. Finally, we were having a minor drainage issue and rather than charge us to fix it, he explained how we could very easily do it ourselves. I can't say enough good things about our experience. They'll definitely be our preferred HVAC vendor from here on out. read more

I clearly have bad luck... as a homeowner for a little over a year, it has become pretty obvious to me that I should have invested in new homeowner insurance. First my a/c went, the next week my refrigerator, and of course during the first snowfall of 2015 my furnace decides to die. When I left for the gym on Saturday it was a warm 69 degrees in my house, two hours later, I arrived home to a chilly 63 degrees. I head over to the thermostat to turn up the heat because clearly that is the problem... but when it didn't kick on I knew I was in trouble. So at 5:45 on a Saturday night, I got on Yelp to see who could fix my furnace and do it quickly! I came upon CJ Heating & A/C Repair who claimed to be a 24hr business, so I made the call. I was actually shocked that a gentleman answered and promptly scheduled a time to come out and look at my problem yet that night. At around 9:15pm Dave arrived and saved the day. Dave, who is the most over educated repair person I have ever met, located the problem, my M igniter, in about 2min. He had the part on his truck and was able to make the swap out quickly. In less than 35min, I had heat again and was able to enjoy the rest of the night. These guys are legit. They really are a 24hr business and will respond to the call as promptly as possible. I feel beyond lucky to have found them. Thanks guys! read more

My husband and I had been looking to replace our old AC and furnace for a couple of years now. Since the units were still both operational, we had the time to scrutinize over several companies. We met with a lot of people and received several price quotes . I had such a good experience with this company, I just wanted to write a review because I know how hard it is to find a contractor you can trust these days. And reading Yelp helped us. This spring we called Leipart H&C. I left a message, and Jim called me back a few minutes later. He came out that day and my husband and I explained what we needed done. He gave us several options and a very competitive price quote. Like so many of us nowadays, we are on a budget and wanted to get the most for our dollar. But, I also know that you could spend a lot of money on name brands and it won't mean a thing, unless you have quality technicians installing the equipment. Jim and his team , Brent and Bryant (spelling?) came to our house on time, 9 am. They were very courteous, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. If my husband and I had questions , they were happy to explain what they were doing and why. I asked them when they were going to stop and eat, all three said the same thing, "When the job is done". They left our house quite late that day. They put in a new AC, furnace, replaced duct work, configure new duct work, vacuumed and cleaned all duct work, fixed a leaking sum pump, installed an Aprilaire 5000 and a smart thermostat . We are so happy with everything (esp. my husband who now loves to control the new thermostat with his phone). It was a pleasure meeting Jim and his team. And, they didn't eat until the job was done! read more

Our boiler went out in the middle of winter. C&J came out immediately with a new unit based upon our space requirements. Removed our old 62 year old unit, hailed away, and installed a new energy efficient model. Service was very efficient and professional. Our house was treated like it was their own. Great job!!!! Great price!!! read more

This company was recommended to me via my homeowner's Facebook group page. I had a 22-year-old (still operational) sump pump replaced, which they told me should be in the Smithsonian. I think it may have been the oldest working unit they'd seen. But make no mistake, it was disintegrating and I was super lucky not to have it fail before I got it replaced. The guys did a phenomenal job of explaining things to me and the job was done in under 45 minutes. This company will be my go-to plumbers from now on. I guarantee it won't be another 22 years before I have this sump pump replaced. read more

A surprisingly great experience. We just moved in and learned that every time the ac kicked on it was spraying water to the point that our basement had an in or 2 of standing water in the surrounding area. Being new homeowners we did not know if sump pump or water heater were also problematic. Instead of taking me for a ride and suggesting I replace it all, he explained that both were older but very much in working order and no need to worry about them yet. The ac turned out to be a blockage in the pvc pipe and was an easy fix that didn't end up costing me a fortune. He also schooled me on where filter should be inserted and what size to purchase. He checked out the rest of unit and added coolant all for reasonable price as well. Will use this company again and again due to the up front honesty and friendly personality of the owner. Great guy and great work for a great price. read more

Top notch service from this crew. The service charge was reasonable and I was given additional advice on how to ensure my furnace's useful life is maximized. Considering this was my first time using this new furnace unit, the advice and thoroughness in their service was greatly appreciated. read more

Awesome service. Would defiantly recommend and already did to a neighbor. One tech was tied up at a long job so a guy who lives close by came out and put his personal plans on hold. Was close to the end of the day. Was so very greatful. Will always call them first and recommend for anyone's needs!! read more

Our furnace blower motor started going out on a Saturday night and started producing a horrible smell. My husband and I panicked because we thought it could have been something dangerous. Luckily we found C&J on Yelp and Jim was able to come out in a half hour. He wasn't able to pinpoint the problem that night, because of course it was working fine when he got here. A couple days later it finally stopped working, and he again made it out right away. Due to the age of our furnace we opted to just replaced it. Although it sucked to have to drop so my money on a new unit, it's really been a huge upgrade for us. The temperate in our two level townhouse has been much more comfortable, as the first level is no longer freezing, and the second level is no longer terribly hot. I can't recommend Jim's services enough! read more

It's not easy finding a good plumber, especially when you seem to only look for them at a time of an emergency. Not only did they act quickly, but they were very professional. When you're in need of a plumber I would definitely recommend C&J. There's no doubt the next time I need to call a plumber I will be calling these guys. read more

Hate to do this, because I originally thought highly of C&J. The first time we called was late Sunday night. We had a sewage backup and didn't know what was wrong and needed someone to come asap. He was great and worked to clear what he though was probably a clog. He knocked $100 off our final bill just because he's a nice guy... Here's my problem. We had another sewage back up a few months later and I immediately called, no answer, so I left a message. Called again later, again no answer. I never got a call back either. We ended up getting the city to come use a camera and were informed the C&J didn't do anything correct! They used an incorrect access point AND weren't even in our sewage line!! They had been running their lines through a rain water run off. So basically we wasted money for nothing. The city recommend we use R&R so we did. R&R came out and did an excellent job, accessed the correct pipes into our sewage drains and cleared us for half of what C&J charged. read more

This is the absolute best experience we have ever had with a repair of any kind. They went so above and beyond, and were so kind and professional and helpful--that it almost took the sting out of having to get a new hot water heater!! I will be recommending this company from here on out. Absolutely stellar service. read more
