I have had several conversations with Cool Tech employees about what other HVAC companies have told me or suggested needed to be done. Those companies were suggesting things that were unneeded and more expensive. The Cool Tech employees told me that they left the other companies and like Cool Tech because they are not pushed to suggest unneeded services and equipment. Cool Techs is honest, straightforward and fixes things the first time (if at all possible).

They then send an invoice with the quoted amount - $2,600 and tell you you will receive the annual discount on that amount, bringing it down to $2,300. Later they charged the full price of $2,600 and state that the full amount already included the discount, even though the invoice shows no discount. They then send an updated invoice of $2,600 saying the discounted amount is already applied. After two times of doing this, I will not be working with this company again.

Burgess Plumbing has worked for me twice and I highly recommend them. First, they fixed a commode…read morethat was leaking at the base. The previous owners of the home did a major remodel and apparently didn't use the correct adapter to raise the height for new flooring. It works great now. Second, they fixed the master bath commode plus they also installed a 36-inch vanity to replace a pedestal sink. Both of these look wonderful and work well. Mrs. Burgess is always very professional and pleasant on the phone. The repair people​ were prompt, knowledgeable, and cleaned up so you wouldn't know they'd been there. The prices were fair and they sent the bills in the mail, which was convenient for me. I had trouble believing the experience Lynn M. reports and wonder if that person has some other issue. I checked Lynn M.'s list of reports and notice another very negative report to a well and pump business just 3 months earlier. I did reach out to Yelp, but they replied that they reviewed the review before and decided to let it stand. All I can tell you is that my two experiences with Burgess Plumbing were great and I have dealt with other plumbers in past years in various cities. I have a few other plumbing wish list items to do in the future and I am happy I found Burgess Plumbing to help me with those too.

Outstanding Service from Solar Simple LLC…read more I highly recommend Solar Simple LLC for any solar service needs. They recently managed the detachment and reattachment of all 52 solar panels on my home to allow for a full roof replacement and repair project. Their team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and dedication throughout the entire process. What impressed me most was their commitment to keeping the roofing project on schedule. Even while working through rainy weather, they stayed focused and motivated to get the panels detached on time so the roof repairs could proceed without delays. In addition to handling the solar panel removal and reinstallation, they went above and beyond by troubleshooting an existing solar system that had been abandoned by the original installers. Their team successfully diagnosed and repaired a faulty relay and remapped circuits that had been installed nearly 10 years ago, restoring functionality and giving us confidence in the system again. A special thank you to Nathanial, who was professional, knowledgeable, and highly responsive throughout the project. Communication was excellent from start to finish. The crew was courteous, respectful, and a pleasure to work with. The cleanup after the job was absolutely amazing, leaving the property spotless. If you're looking for a company with skilled technicians, outstanding customer service, and a strong work ethic, I highly recommend Solar Simple LLC. They exceeded our expectations in every way.

This firm installed two Carrier heat pumps unit for me about 10 years ago and just installed a…read moreCarrier-Midea mini-sync heat pump for a large sun-room. I used to do utility consumption modeling for the Federal government and was probably an annoyance with all the different specs and models I wanted to compare before choosing, but they were always polite. I was very pleased with both their prices and work. I confess to having a bias towards Carrier products over a number of moves because they seem to offer a good cost/reliability/efficiency mix than two other brands I've tried. Also, I got the energy savings I expected with the Carrier models more-so than with two other well-rated brands. We are fortunate to have other good contractors and equipment choices in our area, but I recommend getting a quote from this firm if you are in the market. One suggestion: learn what SEER and HSPF mean and use those ratings when deciding how much to spend when considering more efficient units. Sometimes the payback on a higher efficiency unit easily justifies a higher cost, and sometimes it doesn't.

When they service a unit, it works like new and runs a long time. I have always thought my bills from Air Conditioning Servicers were reasonable. I've used Air Conditioning Servicers for over 26 years for our rental properties and my own home as well. Whether it was installing a new system or maintaining an existing one, Air Conditioning Servicers has done an outstanding job. The folks at Air Conditioning Servicers are honest and really have integrity.

He replaced the ballast and had the light working within about 15 minutes. David has also helped me with other electrical issues over the years. He took care of an issue with my electric doorbell box and replaced some of my electrical outlets. David is knowledgeable, professional, honest, and efficient. He doesn't just fix the immediate problem-he takes the time to explain what is happening and recommend better solutions for the future. I've been very happy with the service from Valley Electric and would definitely call him again.

Instead, they recognized that the issues were probably on the supply side and suggested I contact my power provider. My power provider realized that the issue was theirs. It has been temporarily fixed as a second crew will need to come out to fix it properly. I had up to 8 people working on this issue for about 8 hours. Since this is a power company issue, it is going to cost me nothing. This says a lot about Valley Electric. They could have easily made a few bucks off of me but decided to do the right thing instead and provided excellent customer service.

He told us he could get us a Trane model but when giving us a quote he lied about a fake backorder situation and said Trane wasn't available for months. I checked his claim out by calling over half a dozen other vendors and distribution center for Trane. There was NO backorder situation. He lied to us so he could manipulate us to purchase a less efficient model of a brand we told him we did not want. I have absolutely no trust in a company that lies to its customers. I do not recommend Tradesman Advantage to anyone and would never use him again. He also does not accept credit cards. Very inconvenient lack of payment options. Untrustworthy!

My hot water heater experienced a power surge so I called a few places to get my heating element…read morerepaired. Ultimately, we went with Roto-Rooter in Manassas as they stated they could process the warranty and do the install the next day. Install price wasn't cheap...$585 + $119 for parts. Next morning came and they called to say that the mfg. refused the warranty but they'd sell me the water heater as well. At this point I went to Lowe's where for $693 they did the install AND gave me a new water heater. This also included a $100 charge for an emergency install. Makes me appreciate how much Roto-Rooter was screwing me. Bought an electric hot water heater @ Lowe's and they subcontracted the work through Tradesman Advantage.
