I needed a water line run from the side of my house to my pool enclosure. Total distance was 22ft. Total cost of parts at retail pricing $135. I asked how long it would take and was told approximately 3 hours. Then he gave me the estimate $3368. This breaks out to approximately $165 per foot of pipe. If you calculate it per hour minus parts they are charging over $900 an hour for labor. Be Very Careful if you are thinking of having them do any work. Get other estimated. If I could give them a zero rating I would. read more

so Patrick Thomas called me and my husband and I spoke with Patrick explained what happened. I have the audio and video. He said that his technician said that he was on the phone with them the whole time but then said his tech called him several times? I explained that when I left the room to go finish starting on gathering other projects we noticed a ton of water on the patio anyway so I went back to the bathroom where his technician was and my bathroom and my bedroom and my patio are flooded. There was no water on the floor before the technician got there and when I came back and there was a ton of water all over my bedroom , bathroom I my up the walls. messed up. The boss told me Patrick on the phone husband that his technician called him and said that there may be a problem and I said why would he think there would be a problem if he did nothing wrong well he left your house cause there was a flood when he was here, denied being here and I have on audio and video and then proceeded to tell me if I take down my review, he will reimburse me. Never asked to see the audio and video nothing read more

I was having 2 electrical sockets put in. The technician made a 1" hole in the shower tile and a 2" x 5" hole in the drywall, both of which need to be repaired. I called the manager 3 days ago and have yet to receive a returned call. These guys are horrible. Stay away! Too bad this site doesn't allow you to post pics.... read more

Plumbing on well pump. Needed assistance on a well pump that was installed over 2 years ago. I have had several problems with this pump. I called because we had black water in our toilers and a bubbling noise. Service rep came said wasn't the pump or tank, thought we had a leak in our line to the well or a well issue. Charge $210.00 for a wrong assessment And no water. Don't use this compan. I called a different plumber, he refitted the pvc pipes made some adjustments to switch and we had water within an hour. Charge $110.00 read more

I needed my stack cleared out. the seasoned salesman came with a new person. So the new person says we can show you the price of a clean out. The seasoned guy waved the kid off. then the guy says oh no we charge more to go on the roof. Now let me ask y'all. How do you clean out a stack without getting on the roof. the salesman thought he had a fish. Comes up with the estimate of $700. i kicked him off my property for thinking I'm a fool. so I call my neighbor who has SPR plumbing. $179.00 and cleared out to the street. Mac 5 should be considered has a price gouging it feels like to me. Nevertheless, he had the wrong person to make his commission or whatever would possess him to charge like 250% more than others. read more

My mother had MAC5 come and install a gas hot water heater in her home early January of 2025, mid-way through the month she had the roof replaced and the roofers knocked loose the exhaust pipe connecting to hot water tank. She called MAC5 concerned about a gas leak, they sent out a technician who facetimed his manager asking what he should do for a quick fix (as they wanted $300 to lay the exhaust back over the tank) they suggested to tape the hot water heater to the tank so she can use it for now and that it's perfectly safe. The next day the tape melted, the pipe completely came loose again and fumes were leaking straight into the home. I called MAC5 and spoke with Tommy (Project Manager) he said "She's not using the hot water heater right??" I said yes she is and thought it to be safe per your technician. He sounded shocked but then proceeded to say "Oh yes we did that as a temporary fix for her so she can still use it". Frustrating and dangerous as that is I began to explain to him that I could smell gas all throughout the house and was scared of it exploding. I requested a team be sent out immediately (This was around 3:30pm) he said he couldn't do anything about it today and would have to be for tomorrow. They came back out, I paid for them to fix it for $300, upon looking at what they did I was confused and called Daniel Oneill (General Manager), they re-installed the exhaust vent a different way than they did the first time! For starters, the original install the pipe was hanging above the tank about 1" and had nothing holding it to the tank. Yet when they re-install the exhaust vent, they lowered the ventilation pipe almost completely flush with the tank and secured it with a metal strap. While explaining this on the phone with Daniel he interrupted me several times, said to me that there was no gap in the first install and it's completely the same today as it was the initial install (It's not and it's so obvious) and the technician who came out the second time said "This wasn't installed correctly the first time, I'm gonna do it the right way this time" Yet Daniel claims that to be a lie and said he spoke to the Technician Elijah (Second Installer) , so my questions are these, 1. Why would they install the exhaust vent 1" over the tank the first time, with no metal band? 2. Why would they send a technician out who has to facetime their manager for advice on what to do? 3. Why would they tell someone a hot water heater is safe to use when it's leaking gas and fumes straight into your home? 4. Why on the second install, would they drop the pipe so it's flush and attach a metal band? 5. Why would the technician who came out the second time, tell my mom that this exhaust vent wasn't properly installed the first time and that he's "Gonna do it the right way this time" 6. 6. Should the roofing company have to pay for this if it wasn't installed correctly the first time? Should the consumer have to pay for this? The answer is no, but for the safety of my family it had to be done. I just can't believe I'm even having to write this, sitting here thinking my own mother could've died, my dogs and cats poisoned in their sleep after being told everything safe.. It's saddening. See the photos down below to see the work MAC5 will do for you and your families read more

$65,000 for complete home AC installation. Nothing but problems the past year. Finally got a second AC company to respond. They reported they have never seen so much of an installation mess as this system was. Don't ever use these services. read more

I won't recommend them to anyone! I had them twice for small plumbing repairs. Since then, they keep calling me and harassing me to use them for my air conditioning! I have told them time after time that I have had the same air conditioning company since this home was built in 1995 and I have asked them over and over to stop calling me, but they refuse! I will never call them again for anything! read more

If I could give this company zero stars, I would. Mac 5 Services is an absolute nightmare to deal with. I hired them to detect a leak, and their so-called "expertise" led me to demolish my entire bathroom--only to find out they were completely wrong. The leak was on the other side the whole time! Their incompetence cost me time, money, and unnecessary stress. To make matters worse, I spent an entire day trying to reach the manager, who clearly couldn't care less about his customers. No returned calls, no accountability, just a complete lack of professionalism. This company only cares about making money, not providing reliable or accurate service. Save yourself the headache and hire someone who actually knows what they're doing--because Mac 5 Services certainly does not. read more

Called them To Look at a wall outlet that wasn't working and they quoted me $800. I had another company look at it and it took them 10 minutes to figure out another outlet had tripped. Easy fix. Mac5 wanted to make a big deal out of it and charge me an arm and a leg. read more

On a repipe Max 5 errors 1 - ruined a freshLy painted bedroom with a water leak they caused 2 - installed a shower faucet upside down 3 - installed a sink faucet which leaked after installation 4 - permit failed 5 - kitchen sink leaked after permit fix was done Our pipes burst on 7/31. A plumber from Max 5 came that night and we signed an agreement to have the whole house repiped. The workmen came the next day,Tuesday 8/1, although we were promised water Tuesday, we got cold water on Wednesday 8/2. Wednesday they destroyed a freshly painted bedroom by causing a water leak in the ceiling. On Thursday 8/3, they supposedly finished. Thursday they were called back to fix a sink faucet they installed that leaked. Max 5 didn't put in the permit untill Saturday 8/5 after I called the office asking about a permit. On Monday 8/7 of the following week they finally filed for the permit. Tuesday 8/8 they were called back because a shower faucet they installed was upside down. Thursday 8/10 they came back to fix the permit failures. On Saturday 8/12 they are scheduled to come back to fix a leak caused by the permit fix read more

Stay far away from this company!! Our downstairs A/C unit was having trouble and wasn't blowing cool air. They sent someone out and he said that there wasn't any freon in the unit and it'd be $850+ to fill it up. I understand Freon is expensive but we ended up sending them away and calling someone else. Turns out our Freon was completely fine and it was the capacitor that needs to be replaced. If you want to get scammed and pay over priced prices then give them a call. read more

Believe all these horrible reviews and DO NOT use this company. They waive their $39 "service fee" if you have their $99 "maintenance plan" only to hit you with an immediate $225 "diagnostic fee" the minute they come through your door. Once they hit you with the $225 diagnostic fee they inflate their service quotes to absurd amounts just as all these other customer reviews state. Total cons. Example - $350 to replace a simple ceiling fan. Just a fan swap out for $350. No wiring, etc. Just literally swapping out an existing fan $350. Trust their 1 star rating. This company both unprofessional & unethical. read more

Do not use this company I called them to fix a generator, asking time and time they service Champion generators--I was told by several people in the company they do Of course the tech came and had no clue about champion generators -he read the manual with me then told me to call Champion have them walk me through it I was told $39 to come out-I was billed $225 I called and they said they would refund it-instead they charged me a second time Run--don't walk--away from this company read more

On August 11th, I contacted Mac 5 to request an estimate for a repair at my 88-year-old mother's home. She is on Social Security, so I was hoping to secure an affordable solution. The issue was that the master bath, toilet and sink were only receiving hot waster, water, with no cold water supply. When their technician called with the estimate, he quoted me over $3,800. I immediately drove to my mother's house to hear his explanation in person. He claimed the toilet required a "major rebuild" because hot water was entering the tank - an expense of over $400. When I asked what a "major rebuild" entailed, it turned out to be nothing more than replacing the inner parts - a simple kit available at Lowe's for under $25 and installable in about 20 minutes. He also proposed installing a new tub waste and overflow with a "access panel", which would require cutting into the back of the shower from the master bedroom wall. When I asked if they would repair, retexture and repaint the drywall afterward his response was simply, "that sounds complicated." As a real estate broker and property manager for over 20 years, I've worked with countless contractors and handymen. NEVER have I received such an inflated estimate for a repair. I ultimately hired another plumbing company who resolved the problem by replacing the cold-water line and a filter in less than an hour and a half - everything works perfectly and the cost was less than 20% of what Mac 5's estimate was. Based on this experience, I will never refer anyone to Mac 5. read more

Quick interaction/communication and a very professional service technician (Stephan). That is where the positives end, however. Felt like a total scam and their quote was WAY over what is reasonable for this work. Looking for a simple toilet swap out and they quoted almost $450 including haul-away (almost $300 without haul away). This is 30 min of work for a qualified technician. Company also provides a script to constantly try to upsell with needed add-on services. I would steer clear of this company, for any services. read more

Excellent Service and quick turn around on appointments. The plumber spent a good amount of time looking at some potential issues in our home and gave some great recommendations. The service charge was minimal for the time spent and we have a path forward on what needs to be done. This is a company I will definitely do business with in the future. Thank you for your professionalism, expertise, and advice. I appreciate good customer service especially from a company that is fully licensed and insured. TRUST is HUGE when you are going into peoples homes to conduct business. This company is well worth the time and money! Thank you. read more

I usually don't leave reviews, but I had to this time. I strongly advise to use another company. I usually use Hambel's Plumbing. Honest and reliable! Now back to Mac 5. Technician came out to one of my rental properties in Viera. After he diagnosed my tankless water heater issue, he determined that it was "fried", as in no good and I needed a new one. He quoted me three options; between $5100 and $6400. Uh, nope! I had a feeling he was trying to sell me on something that wasn't needed. I asked him to please stop. I told him I was going to call my regular plumber to take a look, which is Hambel's Plumbing. They quickly came out, and after about 45 mins called me to tell me it's fixed and I'm all set. They replaced the regulator for $190. So, I reached out to Mac5 and explained that their technician told me my water heater was no good and I needed a new one, which he tried selling me upwards of $6,400. Also told them Hambel's fixed in 45 min for $190 and I would like a refund of $109 Mac5 charged me. Long and short of it all; No refund. Sorry, but technician spend over an hour there and we should get paid for his time, the manager told me. Finally I said fine, no problem I'll simply dispute the charge and give them this wonderfully crappy review, which seems fitting, given the terrible service provided. Wish I would have looked at all the other similar, bad reviews before calling them. Ugh! Anyhow, buyer beware. Call Hambel's Plumbing. Tell 'em Mike sent you. And by the way, I could buy same complete unit online delivered for $1,150 and have installed. If it really did need to be replaced, Hambel's said they would have been at most 1/3 of of what Mac5 wanted to charge, or maybe even less, like around $1500-$1700 installed. read more

Highly don't recommend. They told us a free estimate on electrical services when we called about plumbing services and they went on to try to sell us a bunch of things. Once we said no it must've upset them because how ironic our a/c stopped working. Had another company come out and fixed a/c in 5 min. This company had never put the pieces back in properly so it caused a trip in the circuit. I don't recommend and they are only out for your money and a quick sale. Please don't allow them to do a free check up. Their field techs are not honest about what they are doing to customer homes. read more

The upselling right out of the gate, and continual upselling throughout the visit, was a bit much. Plus, there was some confusion regarding what it would cost to fix a tripped breaker (diagnostic $471), so we paid the $39 service call and that was it. Since we recently moved here, I was hoping to find an electrical company, as we had in South Florida, sadly MAC5 will not likely be it. I felt $200 to change out a $57 (retail) breaker and 30 mins. work would be fair. . . apparently not. read more

Had a leak in the water line that supplies the toilet. MAC5 made the simple repair in less than 30 minutes and about $5 worth of parts. Charged $825!!!!!!! Crooks is the only fitting description. Numerous horror stories and complaints on BBB and they have been revoked by BBB. Beware of this crooked company. read more

Their technician showed up on time and gave a fair estimate. He pointed out that some of my attic duct work had reached its life span and he would be glad to service them but they would need to replaced in the year. We decided not to clean them and get them replaced this winter. We are in the process of getting estimates and bids now. read more

Had a slow leak under one toilet, Mac 5 plumber came out and politely tried to upsell on everything! He stated both toilets needed repaired including the insides of them. He told me my main valve was leaking and would probably not shut off in an emergency. Gave me 3 estimates ranging from $1000 to $1700. Asked to have estimate for only the job I was requesting and he quoted me $400. He also told me other companies charge $189 service fee and the only way to recoup that money is to have that company do the work. I had to pay their $39 service fee. Another company repaired the leaking toilet for $275. Based just on my experience, I'm telling you that Mac 5 cannot be trusted! Titusville read more

Horrible follow up communication! After the initial email I received, I have had nothing from the company in terms of contact. The kind woman I spoke to initially deserves a better employer. I was told that a person would call me to schedule an estimate but I've had zero response in over 2 weeks. I have a simple & straight forward install for a whole house generator/transfer switch. The generator is already placed and the distance to the main panel is literally less than 10 feet away inside the garage. You'd think that the very least they'd do is let me know they were incapable of doing electrical work or even estimate the job. But, I guess their lack of communication tells me, and everyone really, they aren't interested in assisting customers. In all honesty, after reading the reviews on Yelp and Google, I wasn't going to contact them at all due to their obvious arrogance and willingness to disparage the customer when they are asked to justify their pricing, normally 3x that of other contractors. But I believe that every company has a fair shot at redeeming themselves and that the negative feedback wasn't earned. I rolled the dice and boy, oh boy was I wrong! For being one of the "fastest growing companies", as they claim, I'm perplexed as to why customers even consider this company for ANYTHING! A word to the wise folks, if even an extremely small number of the reviews are correct, I suggest you avoid this company as if your life depended on it! They will not only deplete your savings, but will also cause you to find a suitable contractor to fix the code violations their workers will leave in their wake! Trust the reviews people! Run far and fast away from this company. Your wallet and home will thank you for doing so! read more

Our toilet got clogged and I made a mistake to call this team because of the 5 stars review here. It's a big mistake! After few hours, they showed up and told me that my main line got clogged and also the toilet got broken , that they need to fix or change the flange in order to get it stopped leaking water again. The quote to do both works : unclogged the main line and fix the toilet frangle is almost $1400 ( $580 to unclogging the main line). I asked them if they could only unclog the main line and I will ask my handy man come later to fix the toilet and they said NO, they only do both work together. They knew I really need the bathroom work again because it was an airbnb and my guests were unhappy. I sent them away and of course they charged me $89 for doing nothing. My handyman came later to unclog the main line and tell me my toilet didn't have any issues, just the clog made it leaking, once it was unclogged , no more leak! Don't ever use this service if you don't want to get ripped off. He charged me $275 for everything!! read more

Customer service was horrible an not to mention the installation of a water softner that had issues 6 months after. You try to call them an they tell you they cant fix it. I speak to the customer service lady tebi an she hangs up on me when i asked to be connected to the manager. Never calling them again. read more

I hired Mac 5 as I was new to the area and needed some help with moving our water softener. They said I needed a new one and gave me a quote for what the technician called the best one on the market. The quote was over $1900 for the softener and over $600 for installation. They conveniently do not put the part numbers on the quote so there is no way of knowing what you are getting. I agreed and found out later that the softener was purchased from a local supply house for around $500 and it took them 2 hrs to install. The softener regeneration failed a few months later so I had it replaced by another company and Mac 5 refuses to warranty it. When I brought up the fact that the mark up on their product was nearly 4x the manager told me that was standard for them. Now I am stuck with a faulty, mediocre water softener that cost me over 2k to install. These guys are way too over priced for me. read more

So im a 40 year old disabled vet. Had mac 5 come out for electrical issue the tech was really nice honest guy. Showed me how getting a 2nd whole home surge protector wouldnt add any benefit. I did join the loyalty maintinance program. 2 free ac tune ups a plumbing tune up. Anyway the ac guys come the guy shows me my cold air return isnt enough the builder should have added a 2nd one. He quoted me 308 bucks with the veteran discount. I thought about it thats kinda high but getting on the floor causes me great back pain. So i decided ok go ahead I signed the work order which made it a valid contract. I get a call the morning of yea we cant send a tech out for a 300 dollar job theres bigger and better jobs out there for us. So he says it will be 832 bucks to cut a 20x20 hole in my wall and install a 30 dollar return grate. I called the Florida AG on them I guess I will be getting a check for my 199 bucks for the program I joined back. About to call my lawyer and see if I have a breech of contract here. I did the job myself in 30 min. An experienced tech can do it in under 15 min and they wanted 832 bucks. Im not done wirh these clowns. I didnt have a yelp acct so I couldnt see the reviews. On google they have a 4.9 yelp 2.4 wonder what shenannigans they are playing on google. Heads up Mac 5 you just wronged the wrong man. Since covid many companies have been screwing everyone over. I have dealt with many companies lateley not being ethical not upholding warranties playong games and just being total bums. Im disabled and dont have a job I have the time to protest on the sidewalk in front of your business. MAC 5 STIFFS VETERANS BREECHES CONTRACTS AND RIPS THEM OFF PRICE GOUGERS. I AM BED RIDDEN TODAY CUZ I HURT MY BACK HAVING TO DO A REPAIR THAT THE INTIAL 308 PRICE GOUGE WASNT ENOUGH FOR YOU YOU HAD TO GO FOR MORE. MY BACK WILL HEAL IN A FEW DAYS. WALMART HAS POSTERBOARD FOR A BUCK EACH MY PROTEST SIGNS MAYBE 2 POSTERBOARDS PER 6FT LONG 2X2 STICK 2 STICKS SOUND GOOD LOTS OF INFO FOR PEOPLE DRIVING BY TO SEE. SEE YOU GUYS NEXT WEEK.

Would have given a zero if possible. Quoted me double for hvac, for lower seer than I bought for over 50% less. I wouldn't let them work on anything I own. I have their quote.

Hired Mac 5 Services to replace a chandelier in my loft. They quoted me a price and I signed a contract. They were to return the following day to do the job. An hour before they were to show up, the manager called to tell me they misquoted the job and they were not going to come. I drove 2 hours to meet the contractor for the quote and stayed overnight in Orlando to be here when the work was being completed and they were a no show for the appointment. This was a complete waste of my time. DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY! If so, do it at your own risk. They DO NOT honor their quoted prices. (Zero Stars) read more

They gouged me. I got charged nearly $200 for about 10 minutes of work, using my own wire and materials and all the prep work already done by me. They're pricing structure for the other things they tried to sell me was outlandish. Why? Because the electricians work on commission and vonuses. If you're having an absolute emergency and can't reach anyone else, the work they did was fine. Nothing special, but fine. Otherwise, fine someone better like Kanda Power read more
