Warren from Garick was fantastic -- he refused payment for his speedy, impromptu repair of our unit. He was gracious when we had been forced to reschedule previously. And he was friendly, articulate, and honest. When our old tank of an HVAC unit does finally die, we'll be purchasing a new system through Garick! We're also going to be scheduling the regular inspections and maintenance that Warren suggested.
Description of Work: Warren from Garick came out to give us a range of estimates, from repair to complete replacement, on our 43 year old, nonfunctioning, HVAC unit. Unlike the previous estimator from Bell Brothers, who gave me a cursory "your unit can't be repaired," Warren from Garick spent approximately 30 minutes tinkering with our AC compressor. He was able to get it working again on the spot, refused payment for his work, and told us what types of maintenance we should perform to keep our "indestructible old tank" of an HVAC system running.

Our heater stopped working. John came out and changed out the part that needed replacing. He showed me the part that had broken and explained why it wasn't working. He changed the part and my heater is working again! He was professional and helpful. I appreciate that he didn't try to sell me a new heater and a/c although I know Garrick's does that too. If I need a new one, I will definitely call them.

They had originally installed the furnace in 2001 in this house that I purchased. The previous guys that I used had gone out of business so I called these guys. I would use them again.
Description of Work: I used Garick Heating & Air to service my furnace. They cleaned and checked it. They checked it all over and checked the burner. It is a 95 percent efficient furnace so they had to clean out the drain and make sure the water was flowing freely and that everything was working. They also checked the vacuum lines.

Garick did a terrific job. This is a very old house, and the system was 37 years old. This job was, in their words, "advanced". They showed up on time every day. They started with removal of the old system. This took two days due to the way the old system had been installed back in the early '70's. They removed the old ductwork, the old furnace, and the old compressor. They had somebody come by several times to collect all the old equipment and junk they removed and placed at the curb. They even let us put some of our other junk on the pile so we were able to take advantage of the pick up and get rid of some of our old stuff. They next cut a new access to the attic, and built a platform and catwalk according to code for the furnace placement. Then they installed the furnace in the attic (an Amana 3.5 ton), and placed batten insulation under the platform at my request (I provided the insulation). They then installed the a/c compressor in a new location, and ran the line sets to the new furnace and compressor. They installed the new vents and returns in the new locations, cutting through the lathe and plaster ceiling with clean cuts and no residual damage. They cleaned up every night before leaving. They were here until 8 pm on the last day making sure everything was finished and the tests were successful. The Garick staff was very friendly, professional and responsive to our needs and requests. Warren, Brandon, and Turner were great to work with, and put in a lot of sweat and long days to get the job done. It was a grueling and difficult installation, but they maintained their good humor throughout. We highly recommend Garick.
Description of Work: Complete replacement of the heating and air conditioning system. Moved room vents to better locations to improve circulation and air distribution. Moved A/C compressor to backyard. Moved furnace location from hall closet to attic. All new ducting and returns.

These guys are great! Warren came out and did a thorough evaluation of our particular situation and helped us select an energy efficient upgraded heating and air system with an outstanding warranty. From Gary (the owner) to Warren (the sales rep) to Joel, who did much of the actual installation, these guys were prompt, reliable, competent, and down to earth. There was never any high pressure. It's a small, independently owned company that takes pride in its reputation for honesty and customer service, and we couldn't be more satisfied with the results.
Description of Work: Garick Brothers replaced our 20 year old central heat and air system with an Energy Star-rated system that qualified us for a rebate, SMUD loan and tax credit.

Warren gave me an estimate and was knowledgeable and professional. Joel and Brandon did the work and also were very professional and punctual. All work was explained to me along the way. Our house is old (1942?) and Garick was familiar with the challenges of older homes. Clean-up was exceptional, and I'm very happy with the result. There were no surprises or add-on costs. I highly recommend Garick.
Description of Work: Replaced furnace and AC. Contract included asbestos and duct removal. Moved current furnace from kitchen to attic. Replaced all duct work in attic. Cut two new registers for better air flow. Finished off old closet where furnace was.

He was very professional. Unlike the last H/AC person I called, he did not try to sell me a new unit that I did not need. I was surprised by the total bill of $196, compared to the telephone quote of $153, but this was because of the cost of the replacement part, which I did not realize was not covered by the quote. There was no Angie's List discount. Overall, I was very satisified.
Description of Work: They scheduled the service visit promptly. Their service person arrived at the scheduled time. He inspected the air filters, found that they were very dirty, cleaned them, and advised me that they asre in good condition but that I should clean them every 30-90 days. He inspected the ducts and found no problems. He inspected the heating/AC unit and replaced one defective part. Her advised me that another part is performing below standard and should be replaced, but did not pressure me to repalce it today.

I have known them from the time they started their business. They have been punctual, good and thorough. I have two furnaces in the main house, one separate unit in the apartment above the garage and another separate unit in the recreation room in the back. They service these four units whenever they come. Their prices also are very good.

He was quick and he was friendly. He was nice. He came in and estimated the work before he did it. The cost was about the same as the estimate. He was efficient. He also reminded me to have the air conditioning rechecked in a few months when the season changed and he said he would do it for no charge.

Garick put in extra effort on the design due to the age of the house and lack of options. Price was steep but we decided this was an appropriate cost due to age of the house, quality hardware and extra cost of the switching equipment. Installation took longer than expected but they worked full days with numerous engineers. Installers made some mess that they could have avoided but didn't break things. Installers were professional and likable and worked hard to conserve basement space. The layout of ducting was superior. After installation there were some kinks. Josh and Warren were slow to respond and very reluctant to tune the system. Garick's owner explained they were in the busy (hot) season, but we suspect they were hoping we would get used to the issues. We had to read the manual and insist they try some of the tuning options it documented - which helped greatly. Design/install went very well. Getting them to make changes was like pulling teeth. It works well now.
Description of Work: Designed and installed heat and air system in 2700 square foot old home. Removed old gravity feed heater and reused existing ducting for heat/air. Added additional ducting to add capacity. Single air conditioner, single furnace, split system using automated dampeners.

The thing that I liked most about this company was that they were willing to do exactly what I wanted done. Other companies wanted to do different things. I thought the price was average, but it was about right considering the amount of work they did. They did a good job cleaning up when they were finished.
Description of Work: They installed a new heating and air conditioning system in my 2300 square feet house. They removed the old unit prior to installing the new unit. They also did extensive work in attic to improve the air flow to the second story of my house. They installed a Lennox Pure Air system.

Steve was very professional and honest and did just what we paid him to do.
Description of Work: Had air conditioning serviced and thermostat checked. It needed freon. The heater was checked as it is same unit on our roof. Had a bad motor. Garick ordered new motor and came back 2 days later and installed it. I was very satisfied with their service and signed up for the semi annual service call.

My Air conditioning hadn't been working for about a month. I found Garick on Angie's List and called to see if they could check it out. I called at 11:30 AM and was asked if I would be home between noon and three. I said yes. Steve arrived at my door at 12:10. He went on the roof and found I was low on freon. At 12:30, he adjusted my thermostat and was done. He was so kind. I'm signing up to have them check the air conditioner every six months! Thanks to all who reviewed this company! I'm grateful.
Description of Work: Checked out the air conditioner, changed the filters and added coolant.

I was given a 12-2 window & Richard arrived at 12:05. After some testing he found the problem, called in the order for the circuit board, it was delivered a 1/2 hour later, he installed it, went over the repairs he did, showed me the burned circuit board, & was on his way. The whole process took approximately 2 hours.
Description of Work: Our A/C stopped working. I called 5 businesses on Angie's list, & Garick was the business that could provide next day service. 105 degree weather was forecasted, so I went with the company that could respond fasted. The capacitor was replaced, & the primary circuit board.

The work was estimated to take 2-3 days. It took three days. Everything was done as estimated. The challenge was to install a new air intake system from the basement where the furnace was located to the dining room with restricted access. The skill of the workman was apparent when he had to cut into the hardware floor for the air vent exactly with no margin of error.
Description of Work: Take out the existing air conditioner in the backyard and the furnace in the basement. Replace and install new air conditioner and furnace. Also install an intake air system plus a new thermostat. All equipment meet the new energy codes.

We accepted Garick's bid because of the obvious professionalism of their rep (Warren Wright) who, unlike the reps from other bidders, did not do a blatant sales pitch. He obviously understood the technicalities, and was very thorough and knowledgeable when examining our house to see how the original system worked. The unit they put in was by Lennox, which has a good reputation, and theirs was the low bid by $2,000. The work was done on schedule. The men were obviously competent. They clearly explained how everything operated and did a thorough clean-up.
Description of Work: Installation of new central air conditioning and heating system. This involved removing the old combination heating/air conditioning unit (over 900 pounds) from its cupboard and replacing it with separate heater and air conditioner. The latter had to be connected to a compressor outside the house. Both units then had to be connected to the original duct system. New registers were provided all over the house, and fire alarms installed where they were needed. They handled the application for a rebate from SMUD and helped me fill in the application for rebate from PG&E. They also arranged for the city inspection.
