I would advise against engaging the services of this particular company. They were referred to me by my home warranty provider to address issues with my AC unit. Initially, they diagnosed a minor problem and received approval to make the necessary repairs. However, during subsequent visits, they encountered additional issues. One visit took an unexpected turn when the service technician inadvertently fell into my uncovered septic tank as it was being serviced at the time while exploring my backyard without approval or guidance, leading to his departure due to injury. This incident was followed by a lack of communication as the technician left the AC running before completion of repairs, causing further complications. Upon returning and replacing a part, they identified a compressor failure, attributing it to alleged misuse and wrongly claiming to have advised against running the AC. These actions resulted in the denial of coverage by the home warranty company, revealing a lack of integrity and reliability on their part. I would caution against entrusting your AC repairs to this company and suggest seeking a more trustworthy alternative for such services. My attempts to address these issues with Modern Mechanical were met with unfulfilled promises of contact from the owner, adding to the frustration of the overall experience. Furthermore: There was a lack of communication regarding the use of the AC unit after the technician's visit. Neither I nor the tenant were informed about not using the AC, and to compound the issue, the technician left it running upon departure. No instructions or notifications were provided via call or message regarding the functioning of the AC post-service. This omission of guidance was not mentioned in the diagnosis report, leaving us unaware of any specific usage instructions for the AC. read more

I was recently selling my home in Raleigh and the Home Inspection found that the downstairs delta temp was off by a couple of degrees. No problem, I have a home warranty so they sent out WoodCrest Mech Services. The diagnosis was that I needed an ENTIRE new HVAC. The warranty co will cover the cost of the HVAC however, my 'out of pocket' expenses were going to be 2500.00. I found this out five days before the closing date so it looked the the sale would not go through. I wasn't putting another 2500.00 into this house!! I recalled that I had previously used Modern Mech for warranty work in the past so I called them to see if they could help. I had not communicated with Modern Mech in about 2 years but they REMEMBERED ME and immediately recalled all the work that had been previously done and questioned the need for a new HVAC. The person I spoke with, Diane, said she would do whatever she could to help me and definitely delivered. With one service call the very next day and a pound of free-on, my Delta T was within the set limits and I was good to go. The house closed and the total cost was 175.00 to Modern Mech. What a relief! Here is what I know, sometimes demand for services is high and you may have to wait (say during hot spells and cold spells). Sometimes this stuff gets expensive to fix - it is, what it is... but it is GOOD to know that you can TRUST a business not to try to rip you off - and Modern Mech is just that business! I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Thank you to Diane and everyone at Modern Mech!! read more

My wife and I recently decided that it was time to upgrade/replace our aging HVAC systems. We shopped various companies at the Raleigh home show and obtained estimates. We chose to contract with Modern Mechanical as a result of Jason L. coming out to do a full assessment of our heating/cooling needs upon which he came back to us with a very comprehensive, clearly laid out and professional proposal. We decided to replace all our systems: a 4-ton unit for upstairs, a 3-Ton unit for downstairs (with all new duct work) and a new Split system for our all season room addition. All the work was done exactly as agreed & scheduled, by a very professional crew who were very courteous and constantly cleaned up as the work progressed. At the end of the second day, we had all three systems completely installed and working perfectly. The new Trane systems are extremly quiet and it was reassuring to know that Jason was in regular communication with his crew on the progress of the job right through our complete satisfaction and final customer acceptance sign-off. Over the years, we have had various home projects, renovations and work done in and around our home and I have to say that Jason and the entire Modern Mechanical Team were the most respectful and dependable bunch of professionals we have dealt with in some time. I highly recommend that you consider Modern Mechanical when/if you need heating/AC/HVAC work done. read more

We recently switched to Modern Mechanical for our quarterly HVAC service. The tech arrived early in the workday with plenty of time to complete the task. He was both professional and humble, indicating that he was willing and able to handle our unconventional system. He arrived with two indispensable tools--a good attitude and properly sized filters (our units are custom and filters have to be special-ordered). When I couldn't recall where a few of the units were, he started with the ones I'd identified, giving me time to track down the HVAC map. The tech went above and beyond, labeling each filter location and its corresponding thermostat with a label-maker so the units will be easily identifiable for future techs. This has been an issue for us in the past as frequently different techs will come and it takes extra time to walk a new person through the building. This simple solution will save us headaches in months to come. We are so glad to have Modern Mechanical servicing our units. The experience this month was a complete reversal from the antics of our former service company and it was truly a breath of fresh air. I couldn't understand why a company with such great service has such a poor star rating--but it turns out there are a dozen great reviews in the "not recommended" part of Yelp (that are more current than many of the disgruntled "recommended" ones too)! read more

Modern Mechanical is a very ethical company, and I have come to trust them with my HVAC needs. We originally contacted them after the "big guys" told us that we needed to replace our HVAC system about 6 or 7 years ago, we were also told that we had a refrigerant leak. We wanted a second opinion and called Modern Mechanical to come out and look over our system. They said that there was noting wrong with our system at that point and there was no leak. From that point forward we hired MM to do our twice a year service maintenance. when we were told this year that we would need to replace our system, we knew that we could trust MM and contacted them to get t quote on the replacement. We knew that we could trust both the service tech and the estimator with what they were telling us. When it came time to do the replacement, they sent out 2 techs that were both very professional and we hardly knew that they were even at the house and working on the new system. They were done in about 6 hours and cleaned up after themselves. We are very please with everything that Modern Mechanical has done for us. read more

Let's just say WOW! First class company and service. The install crew (Scott, Andrew, Darwin, Allen and Cody) was on time, professional, and organized. It was impressive to see the crew leader run a tight crew and everything was completed efficiently. These guys took the time to explain what they were doing and answered all of our questions along the way. After the install, the electrician (Todd) came to inspect the electrical and brought to our attention a completed unrelated electrical concern in the attic. He took the time to show us and explain the concern and fixed it so it's not a hazard any more. Thank you Todd! Then the service tech (Josh) came and inspected the unit and took the time to show us how to use the new thermostat. And of course the sales rep (Joe), he was professional and funny (he doesn't like air deflectors...we took them down). The new hvac unit is amazing and we are very pleased with everything. Modern Mechanical is a professional, honest and thorough company and I highly recommend them. Thank you Modern Mechanical! Great Job! read more

Our Goodman's broke down after 6 years, so we went searching for a new product and a HVAC installer. Scott came out to the house and was very professional. His presentation and knowledge had me convinced this was the right company for the job. From our appointment, I called him on his cell for additional questions. He answered them quickly. He worked around our schedule to get the new Train units installed. He had all the paperwork ready for Duke Energy rebates all neatly in a folder. Percy came out on both installations and did a wonderful job taking out the old equipment and in with the new. They laid out covering to protect the carpet, wore plastic boot covers when they came in the house, and was careful in moving furniture to seal the vents. Percy even gave my friendly dog a treat :-). He and his team were very professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. Top notch service? ABSOLUTELY! It doesn't get any better than this. I will recommend them to my friends and family. read more

Recently the compressor on my 2nd level HVAC system died and I decided to replace the entire unit. Before deciding on Modern Mechanical I secured proposals from 5 local vendors. Their proposal was delivered by Jason an experienced sales professional and addressed every detail of the implementation plan for my home. From the start they were head and shoulders above any of the competition. The installation was handled by Percy and Darwin who were also very professional and was very smooth and uneventful. They cleaned up thoroughly and followed through completely on the implementation. Financially the Trane system I selected was priced VERY competitively which made my decision much easier. In fact it was about 15% less than another area Trane dealer. If you need to purchase or replace an HVAC do yourself a favor and be sure to talk to Modern Mechanical. read more

I had an issue where my Trane HVAC just stopped running.. both thermostats indicated no signal... It was during off hours about 8PM. I called the 24 hour number and received a call back within 30 mins. A very polite and concerned technician (Ken) listened to my concerns and methodically walked me thru over the phone how to clean the obstruction from the drain-line... he stayed on the phone with me until he knew I was comfortable with the procedure. He correctly diagnosed the issue without even making a service call and because of Ken my A/C was functioning efficiently within an hour. I would recommend Modern Mechanical, Ken and all of their crew to anyone in need of a new HVAC system or service on an existing one... they could have easily insisted on a service call but were honest and forthright.. "A great company they are"!!! read more

My experience with MMHVAC started when I decided to replace both my 16 yr old units. My intentions were to call several HVAC companies to discuss my needs. However, I was so impressed with the professionalism of Joe Anfuso, their comfort consultant, that I took the unusual step of going with the first company I called. His presentation was a soft sell, informative, and seemingly genuine concerned to met my specific needs. On the day of insulation two crews arrived. They introduced themselves; I was asked if I had any concerns, and then they proceeded to dirt proof my house with pads and foot booties. In all my dealings with companies throughout the years these workers were seamlessly engaged in their job. They seemed invisible as they did their job. I highly recommend this company, and give them 6 . read more

I recently had the opportunity to purchase and have installed a new HVAC system for my home in Clayton. The estimator from Modern Mechanical was professional and thorough in the choices and benefits. There was no pressure to purchase from them but because of the service, I chose them. The appointment was set and the installation was timely and completed with great consideration for me as the home owner. The installers took care to make sure the house and floors were clean with minimum disruption to my living and work space. Each person involved was so so professional, courteous, polite and smart. I would recommend this company to anyone who wants great service and great follow through. Very reliable and well trained technicians. My installation was July 2, 2015. read more

Modern Mechanical installed a new unit a couple of days ago. The new unit has been smooth sailing. Steve Barnett was awesome. He explained everything really well. After the assignment of our house he was able to offer us multiple units for our home. He called and emailed exactly the way he explained he would. Jason Lawhorn and his crew arrived on time. They were extremely professional. I missed the name of the young man training the girl on the wall unit. He was also very helpful. I've been using ya'll for a couple of years and we've only had great friendly service. Modern Mechanical has a great family vibe to them. Thank you so much for your service. read more

I typically don't write reviews, but after seeing the poor ratings on here I thought I would. Check out the Google reviews- Modern Mechanical is a great company. We have had them service our property twice- once for routine maintenance on the ac unit, and then to replace our aging duct work. These guys do great work. Specifically, Jason and Joe are fantastic. They know their stuff, and provide excellent customer service. After using several different HVAC companies, I have found the one that I will be using from now on. Thank you Jason and Joe, and the rest of the Modern Mechanical folks for your attention to detail. read more

Great experience so far dealing with Josh and Steve from Modern Mechanical! I called late on a Friday afternoon and they managed to get Josh out to my place after 5pm, he was a consummate professional and did an awesome job of explaining the process and what i would need to do moving forward. Steve was the next representative from MM to come by and he was just as impressive as Josh in explaining and not being pushy. You can tell they care about your experience and making sure that you're taken care of now and down the road. I highly recommend them to anyone having air/heating unit issues! read more

Great group of guys! Hard working. Had a group of guys working to ensure that we were taken care of and the job was done to our satisfaction. We have had our issues with our house, but one of those problems that has never taken long to get right has been the new systems that they installed. Quick response, reasonable service pricing and always makes sure to put their booties on to come in the house. No other A/C company would go to the lengths that Modern has gone through to ensure we were satisfied with the installs and how the system is running. read more

Great service from start to finish. They came and did the estimate, very informative and helpful, and the price for a complete HVAC System was very reasonable compared to others. They showed at the scheduled day and time for the install, and made sure everything was working correctly and cleaned up before they left. Also went over how the system operated and answered all my questions. I have a new system with a good warranty, and the first year comes with a maintenance agreement. I'd recommend them to anybody. read more

We recently contacted Modern Mechanical HVAC about installing a new a/c unit. One the day of installation, the team arrived promptly and worked diligently throughout the day to remove our old system and replace it with a new Trane unit. The workers were very professional and knowledgeable. They were in and out quickly and did a great job cleaning up after themselves. This will definitely be the company I call again should the system need attention. I highly recommend them for all of your HVAC needs. read more

This company and their technicians are very professional and polite. I never felt any pressure to purchase. They did a very thorough job doing the calculations as to what size and type of unit would be best for our needs. When the technicians, Darwin Williams and Frank Gonzales, came to do the install they were on time, courteous, and professional. Everything went very smoothly. I would recommend this crew to anyone. Thanks for the great service! read more

I have been using their maintenance and repair services for several years. Recently they replaced our HVAC system. Their repairs and service have always been highly professional, fairly priced, and without any problems. Their cleanup and install of the new HVAC install was impeccable! And the new wi-fi thermostat is easy to program and use on my smartphone. You will not regret using this company for all your heating and cooling issues. Very satisfied! read more
