Guthrie replaced my heating and air conditioning units in the past. Excellent work with very fair prices. Now they come twice yearly to do a tune up, replacing filters,etc. Their staff are knowledgeable and professional. They arrive on time, get the work done and always leave a clean workspace. Excellent service. Thank you!

Before giving a review for a major purchase, I like to wait awhile to be sure that it performs in a manner that meets my expectations. My HVAC system has been in for 6 months now and has been efficient and trouble-free. The installation team was friendly and professional, answered all my questions, arrived and completed their work on time, and cleaned up after themselves.

I don't know where to begin with this company. I booked them a month in advance for a day when my business would be closed. It was to fix the ac, in july, a very hot month. They came out a month before to give me a written quote (which I still have). They were the most expensive quote by far but went with them because they were so called reliable. My staff called them the week before (on a thursday) under my orders to confirm of the service repair scheduled for monday. They said yup, all good see you monday. Friday comes around and they cancel my repair bc they do not have the correct information to fix the repair. I was unhappy to say the least, they had a month to get this and we called previously to confirm. They send a technician out TWICE that day to find the serial number, mind you in my busy business. The unit was painted so they kept complaining they couldn't find it bc it was painted...again this is your job and your screw up, not mine. At this point our ac is now unusable bc they keep opening the unit and not putting it back together. Fast forward to monday and the owners son wants to take a look at it, he only made things worse. He calls me with an attitude claiming he came out to my business out of the kindness of his heart to look at. I was unhappy to say the least, thats what you do when you own a business, you fix your employees screw ups. Since they last minute had to come on Monday, a day when my business is normally closed I had to beg an employee to go in and let them in since I was out of town. I come to find out, this married business of Guthrie and Sons said thee most inappropriate things about my employees chest size. Asking where she got her boobs done bc they looked nice. I was absolutely appalled. I wanted to fire them on the spot but it was supposedly getting fixed the next day. Come to tuesday a very YOUNG to say the least technician came out, couldn't fix the unit because he again ordered the wrong part and had no clue what he was doing. As he was outside their receptionist called to explain they again had the wrong part so couldn't fix our unit that day and the employee packed up and left. I fired the company after that.

We tried very hard to help this customer with a VERY difficult situation with unfortunately no avail. Though we seem to have conflicting stories, we have reimbursed 100% of her costs, let key management and employees go and have tried to amicably and respectfully resolve the conflict She has chosen to move on and we wish her nothing but the best with the new company. Though we regret loosing her as a customer we feel as though we have done everything humanly possible to resolve the issue at hand. V/R Matt Guthrie

It went very well. My experience overall with Guthrie & Sons was very good. Based on how they handled the proposal interaction and actual installation, I would definitely recommend them. The person who provided me with a quotation was very professional. He answered all my questions and put clarification, wording into the agreement that I requested. Two Technicians performed the entire installation in one business day. I will now wait to see how they respond to my first annual call to inspect and service the equipment and any follow up calls. I do not anticipate any problems or issues based on my overall experience. They are a very professional company and group of people.

It went very well. They were able to accomplish all work in one day with two technicians. The installers were very helpful and came back a few days later, at my request, to balance the flow of heated air through-ought the entire house. Based on my experience with them so far I would definitely recommend them,
Description of Work: They removed a 30 year old heating system, including ducts and replaced it with a new Rheem variable stage heating system and new ducts where they were accessible. They also replaced and installed a new thermostat. Before choosing Guthrie i spoke to several different companies and got other competitive bids. I chose Guthrie because I felt they were very sincere, their pricing was very competitive and they were willing to work with me to resolve any concerns I had.

They always call to remind me when it's time for an appointment, their service people are on time, take care to wear "booties" in the house to keep the floors clean, and are good at explaining exactly what they saw each time, what is normal, etc.
Description of Work: I originally had Gutherie and Sons install my AC unit when I first moved to San Diego in 2015. Since then I continue to be on their regular maintenance schedule of twice a year checks.

Response from Guthrie & Sons Heating, Air, & Solar
This member bought a pre-paid maintenance from Angie's list Storefront for $98 (paid through Angies List; not through Guthrie and Sons). Upon arrival, our tech found that his 50+ YEAR OLD FURNACE was unsafe for use and had several code violations and which prevented us from being able to perform the work. I understand this customers frustration with this, however, It is our company policy to NEVER work on a furnace that is deemed unsafe for our customers. This is absolutely our #1 responsibility as your HVAC provider. We feel most of our customers understand and respect that our highest priority is our customer's safety and well being. We recommended that he replace the 50+ year old furnace and to work out a refund with Angie's List. We have notified Angie's List business center and have made several phone calls and attempts to both him, his wife and Angie List to help expidite his refund.

They are fine, they are an "A" company. I think their pricing is average. Oh their quality is perfect. They are very punctual. They are an "A" company when it comes to professionalism. I had great difficulty with my previous provider so Guthrie had to do a lot of reworking of work that another company had done. It took them a couple of visits to get my air conditioner and furnace straightened out. They finally had to put in a new air conditioner and some new duct work. I haven't had any problems since then. So they corrected some problems that other companies hadn't been able to correct.
