He was great. They were wonderful. I thought there was something wrong with the fuse or the fan motor or if it needed blah blah blah. They came out within literally within 12 hours. I called them at night and they called me back in the morning and came out that afternoon. He started at the easy stuff first in case it was an inexpensive fix and it happen to be. So, he checked all the fuses and literally took one of the fuses I had and took a 55 cent fuse and made the fix. After all that, my total bill was nothing. It was awesome and here I was all upset. You just don't know if it is going to be the whole system or nothing. Super super nice and I like that he checked the cheap stuff first.
Description of Work: They did a full diagnosis and it ended up being a fuse. He changed the fuse and added a pound of Freon.

Great... Arthur at Shades is now my goto guy for AC work.
Description of Work: AC stopped blowing and we had some less than desireable results from our normal HVAC service company when we had looked at making some changes to to our ductwork, so I looked on Angie's LIst and found Shades. What a great find it was... Arthur came out and looked over the system and while I was bracing for a big bill, he came back to me and said it was just a loose connection and the repair was covered by the service call charge of $65. He then took the time to explain several aspects of my HVAC system which was really helpful. Later in the day, I got a call from a tenant of mine and they said their AC was not working and the thermostat was blank. Whenever something like this happens my first action is to search the internet about the problem and see if I can fix it myself, but this time I could not find the solution. I called Arthur, who said it was a an easy fix I could do myself which I did. That is the kind of great customer service you can build a long term relationship on.

Excellent on multiple visits that they have come made to our house. We will probably need a new system in the next 5 to 8 years and we will be using Shade's for that also.
Description of Work: We have used Shade's multiple times now. They always come out next day and offer to come same day if possible. We consider them our go to company with any issues we have come up with our system. We highly recommend them to anyone for year tune ups, general problems, or system repairs.

Our AC died in July 2015 and we hired Shades to replace it with a Rheem. On the day of the instal, Arthur told me he would submit our paperwork to Duke Energy for a $350 rebate. After not hearing anything from Duke for several months, I called them and was advised that our paperwork was never submitted. When I talked to Arthur, he said that our paperwork had gotten wet in his truck, so he disposed of it. We took care of the rebate ourselves. I was also told by Arthur that I should call him when we needed the filter replaced and he'd do the annual maintenance. The filter is a specialty item. Given that we have multiple pets in the house and we were still using the original filter that was put in when the AC was installed, I wanted the filter changed out so I emailed and called Arthur a month ago to set up an appointment and he has never gotten back to us. Our first year maintenance never happened. We ended up hiring another AC company to change the filter and perform the maintenance.
Description of Work: Shades replaced our AC with a Rheem 15 SEER unit.

Art is the owner and sole employee of Shade's AC and Heating. One phone call and we arranged for him to come out and look at my home AC unit. He came out on the third week of July, on the day and hour we'd agreed on. Not a minute late. He switched on the AC in the house, then we went outside ? in the rain ? to look at the AC unit. I held umbrellas over both of us. He tested the Freon in the system?there was none. He pumped some Freon into the system and noticed corrosion, caused by a leak, on the top of the accumulator. His on-the-spot estimate was $400.00 for a new accumulator, the necessary 7 pounds of refrigerant, and labor. Due to the rain, he said it would have to be a dry day before he came and did the repairs. The following Monday, July 20th, I went out to my carport ready to leave for an appointment. Art?s truck was in the condo parking lot. He had already completed the repair and replaced the coolant that morning. 45 days later and my AC unit is functioning properly. His bill was $400.00. It was money well spent. I can easily100% recommend Art at Shade?s Air Conditioning & Heating.
Description of Work: Art assessed my AC problem immediately. He quoted a price and said he would do the repairs on a day when it wasn't raining. No firm date. A few days later he completed the repair and replaced the coolant.

Art was totally professional and thorough. He left no stone unturned and along the way he found a shorted out cold weather heat strap that we don't need here, so he cut it off and capped the wires. Everything checked out great and he gave a lot of good advice on how to run the system. I highly recommend him!
Description of Work: Art inspected my entire combo unit for the source of a slightly moldy smell from my kitchen a/c register upon startup. He also did various tests on pressure, freon and electrical loads.

I bought an Angie's List Big Deal for an AC Tuneup. The technician showed up on time, and performed the inspection/cleaning. I was actually not there when the service was performed, but my tenant told me everything went fine, and no problems were found with my system.

They came out to fix the A/C and 8 days we started having the same problem again. The A/C started leaking and we contacted the SP several times and still have not received a response from them. My husband had to go into the attic and suck the water up with a shop vac. The water came through our laundry room ceiling.

I purchased the deal on Angie's list for an AC inspection. Shade's contacted me immediately to schedule an appointment. Technician was on time and gave me a good report. I had purchased the home a few months earlier and knew the AC unit was fairly new, but i wanted to make sure the freon level was OK and that there were no obvious issues. I got a good report and no further service was required.
