Found water streaming out from under house during morning dogwalk. Called and left message .... Call was returned within the hour. Was advised tech was on another job nearby and they would call and advise when he was on his way. They did. Leak was a bit of a challenge as it was an 'unusual occurrence' very hot day... poor guy had to crawl under house. first fix didn't work, went to Plan B' .... he kept at it until it was fixed. Pleasant, professional and will use again.

The technician was knowledgeable. I was aware of the 94 dollar service charge however the technician did not discuss pricing for servicing the R210A refrigerant . Available through Amazon. com for $ 100 dollars per 25 pound tank plus a $ 25 dollar delivery fee . These guys charges me $481 dollars that's $. 132 dollars a pound, nearly 1000 percent mark up and when I questioned being gouged they said it was to also cover Labor when they advertise no hourly labor charge just a project charge. They did neither and did not discuss the cost of the refrigerant before servicing. I would have declined and hired someone else or serviced it myself. Additionally they tried to sell me a service plan for an additional $. 234 dollars that only provides two inspections but would reduce my cost of the Refrigerant to a 400 percent mark up instead of 900 percent. They were still going to charge for making visits which essentially is no agreement at all when you can have your entire system inspected once a year for under 100 dollars by almost anybody. These folks, although very skilled are an absolute unethical overpriced business that preys on the elderly. We priced their charges to toe other HVAC companies, one of which was the installer in our relatively new home and their charges, although high were nearly half of what these guys were charging. I would not recommend them to anybody and would , however , I would suggest Angie removing this company from her list
Description of Work: Trane A/C unit was intermittent. They found the refrigerant was 4 lbs 13 once slow in a 6.1 pound system. Searched for a leak could not find one submitted dye and said they would have to come back to determine where the leak was but said it was probably from the interior units coil. They did not repair it

After driving from Washington D.C. specifically to meet them, no one showed up. I called a little after 5 pm, and they were closed. I called the emergency number and was told they would contact me. They never did. Very disappointed especially that I lost a whole day to get this done. I will call first thing in the morning and will report back their response.

For basic service & emergencies, they have always been there for us. They have persevered with a couple of difficult problems, but stuck with it till the problem was diagnosed & properly repaired. Thus, we will continue to renew our yearly contracts with them. Their technicians are very polite & helpful with explanations.
Description of Work: The last service call was not covered by the contract. However, we have had a heating/air conditioning contract with Megee for about 11 years. We have been totally pleased with their service. We formerly owned a house with a geothermal system & they were terrific for service & then we had the system updated by them. We now have gas & continue our contract with them.

The adaptor we purchased to have the fans hang at a 45 degree angle only brought it to a 40 degree angle. Chris, the electrician,had to return 3 times to make all the corrections and advise us as to what to do next. The price was not high if the three visits were taken into consideration.

We called and reported that our AC was not cooling and what we were hearing soundedl like the compressor was not coming on. The technician arrived when expected and diagonosed the problem as being a bad capacitor preventing the compressor motor from starting. He had the part on his truck and effected the repair immediately. While there he also serviced our AC under the annual service of our service contract. Total cost of the call and repair were covered under our contract.
Description of Work: We had a service contract. The provider repaired out AC Unit.

McGee charged a $94 diagnostic fee, prior to any repair work being done. Their repair man called me after inspecting the house AC system, and indicated I needed a new compressor valve, as the existing one was badly leaking. He said it was a "rare part," and the he had to order it directly from the manufacturer. The repair man said, McGee utilizes an over-night express service and the part would arrive in 2 days. The fee to repair this leak, I thought was very expensive. The repair man assured me, this was the going rate and it could be a lot worse. Since I already paid the $94, I assumed he was dealing in good faith, and I said, lets get it done. 10 days later no part and no status calls from the company. I called the service tech that was at my house and he said I can not talk to you, you must call the office manager instead. I called the office manager and he was not available, so I left a message. 2 days later, I called the company back, since he did not call me back. 1 day later, I called again leaving another message for him, since he was theoretically not available to manage. I was never able to actually converse with this office manager to discuss the problem. The house was very hot and could not be lived in during this time frame. I decided enough was enough and called another company to do the work. I called the receptionist / gate keeper at McGee and I said, "were done, I am extremely disappointed in the performance, management and lack of response from your company." This other highly rated company I hired, made the same diagnostic discovery, fixed it in a week(they keep this rare part in stock), and did the job for HALF THE COST!!! Perhaps McGee does very well, since people pay the $94 diagnostic fee, then the customer is on hook, why would anyone go to another company at that point? It pays to get more than one estimate, so you can save time, aggravation and money. Be careful with this, "pay up front charge," don't be a fish on a hook.
Description of Work: I initially hired McGee Plumbing & Heating Company in Georgetown Delaware, to fix my air conditioning system, since it not working properly, not cooling the house, like it normally does. I told them I did get the AC system charged about 2 years ago, and that the tech at that time, thought that there might be a leak in the line.

Lousy- several weeks of the run around.
Description of Work: Be ready to spend a lot of money to chase a plumbing problem if it isn't straight-forward. We had a leak in our shower which came through the ceiling below in our LR. At first the Megee plumber thought it was a drain defect. We paid over $350 to replace the drain. The next day water came through the ceiling again. The same plumber came back a week later and we test ran the water -only to find that it DIDN'T leak! (Turns out it only leaked when our daughter would shower.) The plumber left- not solving the mystery and told us to call again if it leaked. The next day our daughter showered and the leaking began. We called Megee's plumber on his cell and he said "we should try some calk around the shower head". I explained that I wasn't a plumber, he was, and that's why I was calling him. He blew me off and said to call the office. I called the office and a new plumber came out-3 days later. We were told that we didn't have to pay a service fee for the visit, but, that we had to pay for additional work to be done. This time the charge was $160.00 for an "access panel" behind the shower head. No dice ...still leaking. Turns out it was something simple- the hand bar caulk had eroded causing the leaking when our daughter would sit and point it in the direction of the bar. So we ended up paying almost $600 for a $4.00 tube of caulk and 5 mins of work! Lovely. So be prepared to pay for Megee to chase the problem...and PAY, you will!

We then moved to Delaware two years ago and, of course, took out a service contract with Megee on the new property. Called them three days after sending in the contract for emergency A/C service (95 degree day). They apologized because it would take about an hour to get here!!! They came, fixed it, and left us with a cool house within hours. Megee also came to our rescue about six years ago when I arrived at our beach property in the middle of February and realized our hot water heater had stopped working. It was about 8 PM and Megee came out within an hour. The technician said he could have a new hot water heater installed the next morning and by 11 AM the next day it was done. So, the company is great and their technicians are confident, pleasant, efficient and prompt! Would recommend them without question. I do believe that the service contract gives us a priority over anyone else who would call for service but it's worth every penny.
Description of Work: We have had a service contract with Megee since 1999 on our rental beach property. This always worked well for us because we weren't available to check the property. Megee checked the property twice a year and serviced it as needed. These checks are all covered under the service contract.
