I am relieved to have a reliable, friendly business to depend on when I need them.

I took quotes from several local companies and waited a week for people to respond to my requests then to receive unbelievably insane, completely out of the question, Incredible, kings ransom, massive amounts of money some of these crooks wanted to do a basic charge on my unit. One company quoted me $900 to charge my unit and blamed the price on the cost of refrigerant. Borderline criminal. But, the Powell Brothers show up on time with a more than fair in fact, generous quote. Not only did they fix my unit, but they gained my admiration and friendship. This is what the Powell Brothers bring to our community. The national chains are going to hijack your bank account for their shareholders. These fellas work hard and do great work at a more than fair price. They should be your first and only consideration for heat and air. They are mine.

We moved to Wears Valley in October 2020 and found that the HVAC system required service due to…read moredeferred maintenance and severe humidity in the crawl space. In other words the heat pump wasn't working properly. Tristar was sent by the home warranty company to resolve a covered issue. However there were many uncovered issues with the HVAC system and I called Tristar to return to address them. Tristar returned, inspected and diagnosed the entire system, and informed me of their findings. My options were to either attempt to repair a unit close to the end of its service life or replace it. We chose to replace it with a larger and more efficient unit. Tristar did this quickly and professionally. I inspected the old unit when they got it out of the crawl space and it was a wreck in obviously horrible condition. Obvious moisture damage. After the installation, George Williams (the owner) strongly recommended that I install a dehumidifier and told me in no uncertain terms that without one I'd shorten the service life of the new unit. So I asked him to quote me a price. I was surprised when he said he didn't sell them. He was just letting me know that I had to have one! So, I got one and installed it. He also told me that the zone system controlling the ductwork was in bad shape and may need to be replaced but to wait to see whether the dehumidifier would correct the problem. It didn't, but the crawl space dried out. The zone system continued to malfunction so I called Tristar again. They replaced the zone system electronic components. The ductwork itself was fine. After the work was completed George informed me that the water filter on my well pump was a mess and needed attention. I didn't even know it had a filter! George is just that way. If he sees something that needs attention he tells you. He's observant and conscientious. No extra charge. In my experience Tristar is a good company, run by a good man. I cannot recommend them more highly. The new system works very well and was worth the expense.

After the warranty company drug their feet, the part was finally ordered at the supplier for pick up. I made George aware on the Tuesday before christmas it was ready, he said he would look into and get back to me. Since then, there has been zero communication or attempt to complete the job. Even after multiple phone calls and texts from myself and the warranty company. At this point we have to call another contractor to complete the work George was unwilling or unable to do.

Had them service my new house for 3-4 years every 6 months routine maintenance and inspection…read more Service was generally good. Nice people to work with but the last two times at the house completely misdiagnosed a "problem" I had with my heat pump. Got a second opinion and their analysis was not accurate. Saved me a lot of money having someone else look at it. Had them out one more time and was charged an exorbitant amount for what amount to 15 minutes of work. Upon inspection in the attic is was not cleaned up as they said it would be. In summary, nice people, check their work, if something seems more expensive than it should be, get a second opinion. Be suspicious of "problems" that need to be addressed.

Honesty and integrity is so rare these days that it is a pleasure to run into a company that practices them. I can only imagine what a great experience it would be to work with them!

What a scam.

Evan and his team are unprofessional and unresponsive. This company is owned by someone who lies…read moreand does not communicate. Take your business elsewhere. I first met Evan in November of 2022, when we discussed repair of a gas fireplace, which he claimed would be fixed by ordering a special remote from the company. When I questioned if it could be any other issue, he stated that it could be the starter, but if it was that problem, the fix is cheap and he would cover the cost. Remote was due to be delivered in December. I never heard from Evan. Since then, I have called Shield Services and spoke to his receptionist on several occasions. I have been told multiple times Evan would be calling me, but he never did. The receptionist gave me a lot of excuses. First the remote was "out for delivery". I waited a week, then it was, "I'll have Evan call you". Waited again, no one reached out. I confirmed my contact information multiple times. Multiple calls and unanswered messages. Then I got in contact with the receptionist again who told me it was on backorder. How something can go from "out to delivery" to "on back order" makes no sense to me. I have heard about half a dozen excuses. If you are looking for more red flags, note that this business does not have an address (something I learned when I was filing with better business bureau). Do yourself a favor and take your business elsewhere. Shield Services is unprofessional, unreliable, and does not follow-through on promises.

My experience with Compass has always been OUTSTANDING!!!

Our experience with this company was extremely unprofessional. We scheduled an assessment with…read morethem, and they went on site without properly advising us. They were unsure which unit needed troubleshooting and did not bother to call for clarification. They went on site on Friday, and by Wednesday we still had no proper updates. They repeatedly told us they would submit a repair quote, only to finally admit--after 5 days--that they did not know what needed to be done because they were unsure which unit required service. This wasted 5 days of my time!When we asked to speak with the "owner," who was the one performing the assessment at the time, we were told, "You can't speak with him because he's busy working." We were also working and needed this issue handled promptly. If communication and follow-up cannot be provided because you are too busy "working," then that reflects very poorly on your business practices. The lack of accountability and honesty was extremely frustrating. :) And for future reference, the operator should never raise her voice at a customer. Professionalism and proper customer service should always be maintained. I was the one dealing with the issue and the unnecessary delay, so that response was completely inappropriate. I strongly recommend additional customer service training for her.
