Two words: ETHICAL and HONEST…read more My six year old a/c unit froze up. I thought it was the dirty filter. To play safe I called out my original A/C company, MId Fla Heating and Air. Their tech, Joshua tells me the blower motor is bad. Cost to replace over 2K. After some slick talking he convinces me to drop 9K on a whole new system. Thankfully I got bad vibes and called Babiones. Two techs arrive promptly (within 3 hours). The lead tech, Jeremy says the motor is fine but it was not getting a "call" AKA signal to ramp up. He does some diagnostics and finds a bad thermostat ($260) Big difference in price!! Basically Mid Fla was unethical and dishonest. They did many other unethical things but you read about their tactics in my review about them on Yelp or Google. This is about Babiones and as I said at the outset they are honest and ethical. Sad to think that in the heat of the summer companies like Mid Fla prey on seniors on a fixed income. Hats off to Babiones. I intend to find the biggest megaphone I can and spread the good word. In closing, thanks to Jeremy and all the others at Babiones in Williston, Fl. You truely make the world a better place. Jay Klein Morriston,Fl. e

I was told there was a leak and that they would be happy to replace it or "lease" me a new one, from the sales guy who happened to be there at the same time. I talked to my brother, the next day, who talked to Allan & Rogers and they had Josh come out, almost immediately, that day. Josh took a look, and had it fixed in about 30 minutes. He said that 2 capacitors I had in the system were almost completely dead, and that he replaced them. After getting the AC blowing again, Josh checked the temperature of the air coming out of the vents, using some fancy laser range finder thingy (it's a Laser Infrared Thermometer. I looked it up.), and verified it was working properly. Josh was very pleasant to talk to and did a great job! I called the company after he left and initiated their basic maintenance plan right then. It is difficult to find companies you can trust. I think Allan &Rogers is one of them. Of note - Their maintenance plans have a monthly or yearly price. The monthly, added all together, is the yearly price! No interest! Now THAT is NICE!

I went to one of the big hardware stores and spent forever trying to decide. I finally chose a new washer and dryer and when it was time to pay found out that my military discount did not apply and I needed to purchase new hookups for the washer ( hose attachments) and for the dryer (new vent) even though there was nothing wrong with the ones I had. When I paid the 1,572.00 for everything needed they gave me a delivery date 13 days away. What was I suppose to do for 13 days? I already had a huge pile of laundry as it broke 4 days prior. I called Jake Johnson appliance as I figured it was worth 35.00 to see if the dryer was worth repairing. Jake arrived the next day less than 24 hours of my call and repaired the dryer for $85. I was able to put the 35.00 towards the repair cost. For less than $100.00 I was able to save myself from further credit card debt 4 weeks before Christmas. I was impressed that when I told Jake that I had checked the dryer duct and cleaned it well with a dog groomer blower the day before and that the vent output in the backyard was strong, that he wanted to check it for himself after repairing the dryer. I was having a long term problem with the latch on the gate door to my backyard and when we had a problem opening the gate he said that the hardware had been installed improperly and was not lining up properly and he took the time to go to his van and get some new screws and took the hardware off the gate and installed it properly for me. Great customer service and reasonable pricing. Very nice and polite young man. I could not recommend him more. Very happy with this service.

Contacted Stuart's Appliance Service at 352-877-0181 on 4/8/2023 as the first contact reaching out…read morefor services due to our refrigerator not keeping cold and food spoiling. Surprisingly we were able to speak with Stuart on that Saturday, the day before Easter, and set the service call for Monday 4/10/2023. Stuart arrived within the agreed timeframe. Upon this first visit Stuart diagnosed what he described as the issue of the coils in the back of the freezer icing up and not defrosting properly. He replaced three parts - Heating Element, Defrost Timer, and Defrost Switch. He insisted this would resolve the issues and the refrigerator would run perfect. The work which he provided was invoiced and billed for $324.xx we also provided a gratuity payment of $75 for the prompt scheduling and to which seemed the issue being resolved. Approximately 3 weeks after the first service call we noticed the refrigerator began to not keep cool again. Contacted Stuart within the first 30 days of the initial service date of 4/10/2023 and Stuart agreed to return to fix the issue. During the second visit, Stuart then expressed how it was now passed the 30 days and the his services were not guaranteed or in warranty any longer; we iterated we had contacted him prior to the 30 days expiring and the second service call was scheduled past the 30 days. He conducted the same process of manually defrosting the iced coils in the back of the freezer wall. And the unit worked, cooling the refrigerator, as expected for only approximately another 3 weeks. Contacted Stuart for the third time reporting the same problem reoccurring yet again. Stuart returned for a third visit and conducted the exact same process of manually defrosting the iced coils. Now, on 7/12/2023 once again our family realized yet again the same exact issue was still occurring, the refrigerator's temperature rising and not keeping our food products at the proper temperatures, food spoiling again, and worse of all not being able to control proper temperatures for a life saving medication that must remain refrigerated. Called Stuart on the same day of 7/12/2023 and the call seemed to be in a cordial agreement that the same issue that he was originally contacted about on 4/8/2023 was still unresolved and this was now the 3rd time since his first visit we have lost groceries due to the issue not being fixed properly. Stuart stated he would be unavailable until the following week until Monday 7/17/2023 and would call us. No call was received on 7/17/2023. On 7/18/2023 I called Stuart to follow up with the situation. At this time Stuart promptly and aggressively stated it was well past his 30 day warranty, to which I replied we had contacted him within the initial 30 days because the issue was occurring again. He then proceeded to express that he did not charge for the 2nd and 3rd visits, to which my response was that the repairs and service have yet to correct the issue and he was paid $400 in cash due to him not being able to accept payment from credit or debit cards for service that had not fixed the problem from the beginning. I'm attaching a photo screenshot of our original review; yes, at that time it appeared to have been fixed and we're grateful. However here it is 8/3/2023 and the first repair was conducted on 4/10/2023 as well as three additional visits that have still not fixed our refrigerator. We've attempted in good faith to allow Stuart to rightfully fix this issue repeatedly since 4/10/23 after billing us $325.xx; the last communication with Stuart he expressed he would be ordering a part from a supplier on 7/24/23. Did not hear from Stuart until we called him today, 8/3/23, to be ran in circles that he would pick up the part at a local shop. This has been an absolute nightmare and would nor could not recommend this business unfortunately.
