Response from Intelligent Design Air Conditioning, Plumbing, Solar, & Electric
Thank you for your review. We are very sorry that you did not feel that our quote for the plumbing work at your home was a competitive rate. We have compared our hourly rate to most of the companies in Southern Arizona. When looking at the cost of a licensed and bonded company that have the same guarantees on the work performed you will find that we are the best value in town. Just to give the readers an idea of the quantity of work for the price I will list the work out that was quoted. 1. Rebuild the commode tank fill valve and flapper. 2. Reroute the hot and cold water for both of the master bathroom through the stud walls including all the materials(pex tubing, fittings, angle stops, and all supply lines. 3. Installation and of 2 master bathroom shower valves. 4. Reroute the lines for a second valve installation with the connections running in the attic. 5. Kitchen water service and reroute into the stud walls, route new water service to the refrigerator and add valve box. 6. Return back on a second visit once the other house construction is done to the install the kitchen faucet, garbage disposal and plumb the drain. The total bid with labor and materials was $2447.50 Given the quantity of work over 2 days and materials we hope that the Angie's list readers can see that we are very reasonable and competitive with our pricing. I am sorry we did not have the opportunity to show you the level of service and quality our team has to offer. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.

HVAC general service was provided by Reggie Phillips. Did a great job again. (I always attempt to get Reggie for anything HVAC related) Having had many AC services in the past by several other companies, nobody digs in and checks your system like Reggie. Nobody us goes to the extent he does and he correct minor issues on the spot that others never bothered with. I trust my two HVAC systems only to Reggie and recommend you ask for him by name.

They did not have the right connectors in their truck to install the faucet on the day it was scheduled, so returned the following Monday to do it. They did not charge extra to return, or for the parts.

The only question/problem came when he was figuring out the bill and I asked him to deduct the $39 that I paid Angies list for his services; He said his company got none of that and that you kept it all. He said it was a promotion fee or something. In the end he did deduct it but wasn't too happy about it. He didn't need your work order number or the printout of the fact that I had paid you for his service. Contrary to that, the window washers I had previously wouldn't even start the process without the work order and charged me nothing due to what I had paid you.
Description of Work: Changed out kitchen faucet which I provided. Replaced valves (3) under sink that were all corroded with lime. Had to run to Hardware store to get an extension for a water line.

The technician was helpful and explained everything in detail. His visit lasted about 3 hours.
Description of Work: I recently started using Intelligent Design to service my HVAC. Last fall the gas furnace was inspected and was OK. Today was the first time the company inspected the AC unit in preparation for the summer season. My five year old HVAC system has a history of freon leaks (supposedly fixed by another company) and today the technician from Intelligent Design found another leak during the maintenance visit. He found no obvious source for the leak so added sealant to the system to stop further leaks (hopefully!) and added more freon. He also cleaned the coils of the condenser and evaporator units.

I was a little disappointed that the tune up did not include changing the filters.
Description of Work: Took advantage of Angie list special of air conditioner tune up for $55 per unit. Technician found contactors needed to be replaced so told him to go ahead and replace them-- seemed rather pricey at $185 each -- for 2 units. But then in June of the following year when the one unit stopped blowing cold air-- they squeezed an appointment in for us. Technician came out at 8:00 pm that same day to check out what was wrong. Turned out something had gotten on the fan restricting it. He cleaned it off and only charged us nominal service charge. Has been working fine ever since.

The salesman (Lance) was great. He explained to me everything about my system that he could. I felt he was honest and was interested in giving me a good value for my money and the right system for my home. The installers came and were on time. They were very courteous and professional. They were there for most of the day and kept me posted on what was going on with the instillation. It was a cold rainy day so they couldn't check the A/C to make sure it was working. They had to come back the next Friday to finish that. Their professionalism continued. These fellows are really great and know their job well. They left the area very clean when they were done. They treated me as a customer very well. Thanks for the great job guys!

It went great! the plumbers were friendly ,professional, fixed my complicated drain and cleaned up after themselves. At first they thought it was just a bad clog They snaked a long way down the pipes, but were concerned about my next door neighbor's pipes. They even went next door to check to see that her plumbing was OK. They had to saw through my old, OLD pipe and replace it with new components. They even had to go out and get parts that they didn't have with them. The guys went above and beyond, in my opinion. I will definitely use this company again

I drew the impression that the employee wanted to expedite my decision to replace our water heater by misleading me to believe that I wasn't going to be able to find a water heater that would fit into the cabinet area in our garage if I waited. It is true that manufacturers aren't making water heaters that small anymore, but the plumber I hired to install our new water heater told me that the opening we have will NOT pose a problem in the future. Trust is very important to me, and this employee did not earn my trust. I also learned later on a local radio station that this company is offering these services free, although I paid $39 for it through AL. With all of the sweet deals being offered for water heater replacement, I would think the employee would have offered me a competitive discount on a new install. His "out the door" offer was $1387. He must have thought I was a sucker!
Description of Work: Water heater flush and inspection of one plumbing fixture as requested. I purchased the AL deal, and called to schedule the apt. The employee who came out to our house was professional and easy to talk to. However, he told me some things that didn't quite pass the smell test.

Response from Intelligent Design Air Conditioning, Plumbing, Solar, & Electric
On Feb 6, 2015 we arrived on time for a water heater flush and plumbing inspection. The writer of the review’s spouse had met our representative at the front door and went with him to the water heater. Upon entering garage spouse had stated that her husband works late hours and was asleep. Our representative then drained and flushed the water heater and inspected inside with mini camera. We discovered that anode rod had been depleted and the base of holding tank is corroded and inside tank was retaining large mineral and scale deposits. The customers’ wife inquired about replacing 40gallon water heater with larger capacity 50gallon tank. We discussed the available space and the new efficiency regulations starting April 16, 2015. The 50gallon tank after that date would be 24 inches in width and the available space is only 24 inches. Code requires that we have 2 inches around the gas water heater. So if we wait until after April we will not be able to put a 50gallon in that location. The solutions after April 16 would be to install another 40 gallon or we would be forced to find a new location to increase the size to a 50gallon. It is our believe that the we failed to properly communicate what the wife was requesting to her husband and he did not get a clear picture of what his wife was requesting a quote on because he was woken up and disturbed in the middle of our appointment. It was not our intention to rush your decision for replacement. The date that we stated the changes go into effect was 2 months after the appointment. 2 months is ample time to make a decision and not be rushed. Another statement of fact that was made is that the supply houses are running very low on the 50gallon tanks that will soon be outdated. So if you wish to increase the size time is of the essence. A simple replacement of a 40gallon water heater would have been at a much lower cost and would not have size spacing issues. Also the warranty we provide is not pro-rated like many other products used in advertised low cost water heater specials you may see. Our 6 year warranty provides a free replacement for the full 6 years. Prorated warranties only a portion of the value with reduction of reimbursement for every year of use. Some of the other differences may have been that we provide a permit and inspection with the installation. Although this is required many of our competitors have discounted advertised rates and are skipping the permit and inspection. Our 50 gallon installed price included, 2 years of service, a metal drip pan, 3/4" full port drain valve, new gas valve, gas flex, sediment trap, shutoff valves (hot and cold), stainless steel supply lines and required permit all included. The free radio promotion came out after the customer had purchased the Angie’s special to flush the water heater and a plumbing inspection for $38. Angie’s list does take 100% of that promotional cost. The radio special is for new customers only and the Angie’s special is for all existing customers as well. I am very sorry that we did not communicate the details of what was requested and proposed and subsequently did not have a chance to offer a lower cost water heater and earn your business. I wish you the best in your future endeavors. -Andrew Dobbins

The service went very well. They came on time. The guy was very thorough. He took his time checking and cleaning everything. I asked him a couple of question and he was very patient in answering my questions. He's very efficient and polite. I like the fact that I could make the appointment through Angie's List like the communication with them was through Angie's List so that was really a unique feature. I would use them again. Their pricing was great because I got the big deal so with the services that they provided it was a good deal. They were very responsive and he was on time.
