However, I was advised to remove my initial review or our project would not be completed. On Father's Day morning, we called this company for an emergency due to issues with our boilers. Initially, we were impressed by their prompt response and diagnostic services. However, working with David and his company turned out to be the worst experience we could have had. David promised us a new HVAC system (water heater and heat pump) within a day or two. This has now turned into three weeks. The communication between us and David was terrible, and he even threatened us. To make matters worse, he left our family in the middle of a heatwave, with a newborn baby! David has said vile things to my family because we asked questions about the work that was supposed to be completed and complained that the service we paid for was not complete. He was angry that we filed a complaint with the financial institution we worked with to get the work done he removed the breaker from the heat pump system and told us that "our children will suffer tonight" ( heat wave in affect and it's over 100 degrees in the home ). His words were so disturbing that they are not allowed anywhere near our property. They also damaged and left a hole in our ceiling. After stating that someone would come to fix it, just like they usually do, no one came, and they didn't even bother to follow up. We had to pay someone else to come and fix it. We took out a loan for a specific system and he promised us that system, yet installed a cheaper lesser system with equally bad customer service. Once the job was reluctantly "finished," our heat pump didn't work, and we had to call in and pay other companies to not only evaluate the work this company did but also fix it. We later found out that the work they did could have resulted in a fire if we had kept the unit running. Not only are they dishonest and take advantage of emergency situations, but they also do horrible work.

They canceled the appointment because it was drizzling outside. Jessica, who contacted me to cancel the appointment told me that someone would get in touch with me within 2-3 days. So, someone should have called to reschedule by May 5. This never happened!! On May 8, I reached out on their company website without any response. On May 9, 2022, I called and got transferred to their answering service. Again, there was no call back! I did the same outreach the next day and Wednesday May 11,2022. I had also written an email to the owner , Mike on May 10,2022. There were a total of 5 outreach attempts without a response, only leaving my cell number for them to call back. Finally, I was fed up with their lack of responsiveness to my calls and e-mails. When I left my third phone message today with their answering service, I told the receptionist that if I didn't get a call back today that I would be writing a negative review and I would be taking them to small claims court to get half of my contract money ( $543 ) returned to me. Only today did I finally get a call back from the owner Mike. He was nasty, when he should have been apologetic to me. He told me that he's dropping me as a customer. He said he was going to come to my home , which I took as an implied threat to me and my family. He also lied to me and told me that he contacted me 5 times. This is a blatant lie as I just spent the last few hours checking my phone records for my mobile phone and landline. He only called back after I threatened to take him to court for breach of contract, which seemed to be what he was doing by avoiding calling me back and providing the services that I paid for in my yearly contract. I strongly urge anyone considering doing business with this company to seek another alternative. He is a nasty owner and can not be trusted. It is virtually impossible to reach anyone by phone and they certainly don't value their customers. I told him that I would give home 3 days from today to return half of my contract money. I don't expect that he will do this. So, I will likely be seeing him court in the near future!! I'd like to give ZERO stars, but apparently I can't do it !!

I have used 5 Star Mechanical for several years, and they used to be responsive, thorough, and easy…read moreto deal with. Apparently, at some point, that version of the company quietly left the building. In early June, I had them out for an ongoing air-pressure/airflow issue. The technician looked at the system and told me someone would get back to me with options to correct it. While he was there, he also fixed a loose thermostat wire and recommended that I sign up for their service agreement, which supposedly included preferred scheduling and service. That sounded reasonable, so I signed up. It is now late August. I am still waiting for the magical follow-up call. Over the past several months, I have called repeatedly. The woman who answers the phone tells me, every single time, that she needs to speak with Tommy and that Tommy will call me back. Tommy has now been "calling me back" for several months. At this point, I can only assume his phone requires a replacement part that is also waiting on a callback from Tommy. After enough unanswered calls, I finally asked for a refund on the service agreement. After all, the entire reason I bought it was because I was told it would provide preferred service. Apparently, "preferred service" at 5 Star Mechanical means you are preferred to the customers whose calls they ignore even longer. I was then informed that the service agreement is basically non-refundable. Fantastic. So to recap: they encouraged me to purchase a service agreement promising better access and preferred scheduling, failed to follow up on the problem they already came out to inspect, ignored months of phone calls, repeatedly promised callbacks that never happened, and then told me I cannot get my money back. At this point, I'd get more value out of wiping my ass with the service agreement, which may actually be its most practical use Had they simply told me in June, "We have no intention of getting back to you," I could have called another HVAC company and saved myself an entire summer of chasing them. Instead, I kept giving them the benefit of the doubt because I had been a customer for years and because I had literally paid for a service agreement that was supposed to make this process easier. Lesson learned. I don't expect a company to drop everything the moment I call. I do expect that after five calls over several months, returning one of them shouldn't require an act of Congress This is not one missed call or one scheduling mistake. This has been months of being brushed off while holding a paid service agreement that appears to guarantee absolutely nothing. 5 Star Mechanical used to be a company I recommended. Based on my experience this summer, I would now recommend keeping your credit card in your wallet until you have a very clear understanding of what their "preferred service" actually gets you.
