Perfect as I expected and more. East Coast installed a central air system and a ductless heating and calling system in my house. They were much affordable than their competitor.

I really enjoyed having the work done by East Coast. They were professional, and when I had questions, they took the time to answer them, even if it meant calling in someone else, or coming by on another day to demonstrate some of the features of the system. In my book, East Coast goes above and beyond the contract to really provide customer satisfaction.

Both of our AC zones had failed. The office staff went over and above to find us a service appointment slot shortly after we called in spite of their having a full schedule that went out 3 weeks. Tyler, the ECM tech, was very professional and capable. He immediately diagnosed the problem and had the system running at peak efficiency a very short time later. Great folks. Would definitely use them again.

After coming out to my house I was told they didn’t think it was even possible and quoted me a price three times higher than the company I eventually went with. The two other contractors that bid on the job had no problem figuring out how to do it but what they couldn’t figure out was why East Coast was so ridiculously expensive.

Hi [Member Name Removed] , I am responding to your Angie's list review of East Coast Mechanical of Cheshire CT.

They did an excellent job! Dave was very knowledgable during the evaluation and the price was comparable. Their installation team were friendly, efficient, professional and were able to do it in only 1/2 day! I was very impressed and would highly recommend them. Keep up the good work!

Overall a great job. Went out of their way to accomodate us during the work to make sure the replacements were working as the work occured during a period of 90 degree days. Cleanup could have been better, but still above average. Minor issue is the dryer vent tube was dislodged and went unnoticed by both them and us at the time.

I was very impressed by the technician and the work he did. Very thorough and though the problem was not 100% resolved it was greatly improved. Then I called the owner to talk to him about the issue and to compliment the technician. But after 3 messages left for him I still have not gotten a return call. Given that non-responsiveness, I do not feel I could rely on this company in an emergency. I might call again for non-emergency work, but will look elsewhere for service contract

I called East Coast to get a quote for converting to gas and replacing the central air unit on a house my husband and I are in the process of purchasing. Dave called and texted right away, so I was initially impressed. However things quickly went downhill. He basically said giving me an estimate was a waste of his time because I was just using the quote to haggle the price of the home with the seller. When I told him the home was being sold "as is" and needed a furnace installed before closing, he said we were out of his geographical area. It seems to me that if that he should have just led with that information. He also made it a point to tell me that the gas companies are booked a month and a half out so I would be out of luck.

They were very, very good, very professional. I thought price-wise they were good. The sales person with whom I dealt suggested a unit that is appropriate for the size of my house which was lower in cost than what some other people suggested. So, I was very, very pleased because the unit does work very well.
Description of Work: I went with East Coast Mechanical in Cheshire. They installed a central air conditioner. The duct work is existing so they didn't have to do the duct work.

They came out and quoted me. They were pleasant and nice. They got back to me. They were good, nice and polite. They gave me a good quote. I just never followed through. The quote was pretty detailed. It was one little short meeting and that was it. The quote was pretty good. It was okay. Their punctuality was okay.

First off, I've been a landlord and home owner for almost 30 years. Have owned 6 houses in two states. I've hired several HVAC contractors both for installations and for maintenance visits. The service tech from East Coast was a no-show on the original date expected. It was explained that he was "not feeling well" that day. However on the day he did show up, he didn't recall this. So I guess that wasn't true after all. First time using this company. He was only here to do what was billed and requested as a maintenance visit on two central a/c units. He set to work on the basement unit and soon announced he was finished. I asked, did you clean out the condensate pump? He said that was not part of his service. (However later I checked the invoice and in print was "clean condensate drain".) This service has ALWAYS been included with every such visit I've had from HVAC service providers in the past. I know this because the guys always needed a cup or water to clean out the pump and drain. Next the attic unit, and that went very quickly as well. Then we went to the outside units. After trying to sell me two expensive parts - note both units are operating perfectly - he said he was finished. I looked at the outside units and noticed the leaves and debris were not cleaned out. I asked why. He said that I should check my contract, that he was only there to "check things" but not to actually DO anything or clean anything out. In other words, no actual maintenance was done! Only checking of things. And attempting to sell me 2 parts, $170 each. Parts which I later found online for around $15. Plug in parts, capacitors. I had high hopes for this company as they had a good profile on Angie's List and are local. However I would never use them again. My a/c units are 10 years old but I would never use East Coast for installation. I will use my oil company who I should have gone to in the first place.

Description of Work: neither of our air conditioning units was working. The service tech, Ben, quickly and correctly assessed the problem and in about an hour had both units operating at peak again.

I love my new heating and cooling system for my basement. Mike was super professional and prompt. His price was super reasonable compared to another highly rated business on Angie's List that wanted a couple thousand more for less service. Installation was set up and done the same week of the consultation. I just love the remote access and being able to control my unit from my smart phone. Kudos to this company!

I had wasted a significant amount of money trying to figure out why my boiler wasn't producing hot water. They came out and fixed it right away. They are doing my annual service now as well. I am a realtor and have called them for emergencies on my properties as well and they were responsive and reasonably priced.
