Description of Work: Had them install a new gas water heater they neglected to check the fittings for gas leaks they were leasking so badly they could have blown my house up!
Rating CategoryRating out of 5

Response from C AND K Heating, Cooling & Plumbing
There were no leaks present at the time of install. We were not notified of any issue until a competitor was called out to give a quote for a new HVAC system, at which time they "found a leak by the water heater and fixed it." The LP water heater we installed has a safety device called a flammable vapor sensor which is designed prevent such a scenario.

Description of Work: "I scheduled my furnace for an annual check up. The serviceman was thorough and showed me how some things had been patched together and my 21 year old furnace was inefficient and possibly dangerous. I opted to buy a new furnace and air conditioner. C&K's |prices were very good. After the rebates I qualified for, I spent about half of what I expected. The service was prompt and courteous. I can't believe how much better my home warms up now. So happy I did this and did it with C&K."

Description of Work: Replaced water heater. This was an emergency replacement. | |Great Service, Great Price. My only unfulfilled wish would have been if they kept better models on hand. Their in-stock heater was a Ruud water heater with a 6-year warranty that is not Energy Star compliant. They could have ordered a different model, but it would have not been same-day service.

The technicians are punctual, polite, and leave a checklist of the services and checks that they have performed. They come in the spring to do the same for the air conditioner. They offer a service agreement that is paid for once a year.

Response from C AND K Heating, Cooling & Plumbing
I would like to apologize to Mr [member name removed] for his negative experience with CandK. We pride ourselves in customer satisfaction. This should have been a fairly simple plumbing project but as with many projects of this type, when you open a wall you find unexpected obstructions and things take longer. Also, Mr [member name removed] called our office and reported that one of his boiler heating pumps was damaged during the plumbing project. We did not question the problem, we dispatched a repair man the next morning and replaced the pump for him at no charge. We always strive for total customer satisfaction but in this case it would seem that we fell short of Mr [member name removed] expectations.

The service technician phoned approximately 15 minutes prior to our scheduled appointment to confirm he was on his way - C and K techs ALWAYS do this. It's a little detail that I particularly appreciate. Too many times in past with other companies it was always a guessing game of will they arrive close to scheduled time. Love not having to play that game. If for any reason, such as an emergency call for a customer in more immediate need (like no heat or a/c) than us, they will call and ask if we would mind rescheduling for a bit later. These are little things that add up to a really positive feeling. We also used them for an emergency water heater replacement about 18 months ago and again, everything was explained carefully, all our options for various products were explained. We made immediate decision and new water was installed same day. They always also do haul away on replaced items - another appreciated service.
Description of Work: This particular call was for our yearly furnace check up. They do a very complete job checking everything including thermostat, outdoor venting etc. They explain everything and always ask if we have any questions.

The C and K plumber was extremely knowledgeable and did an excellent job. He was the most professional tradesperson with whom I ever dealt. C and K is a top quality company and command compensation accordingly. My only disappointment is that C and K agreed to provide me with estimates for two other large plumbing matters, but nearly one month later, I have not heard anything further from them. This is disappoining because I need the additional work done, but I suspect C and K is quite busy due to the exceptional quality of their work.
Description of Work: C and K ran hot & cold water lines for a washing machine and laundry tub. They also installed the laundry tub.

Next time they need to check the thermostat first and stop blaming the customer for their incompetence. Also, pick up the phone and call local Lennox dealers for parts if it's a weekend; it's what you call "good customer service".
Description of Work: Furnace stopped running. Needed new control board but they claimed they couldn't get one. After two cold nights I find 2 boards at local Lennox dealers.

Response from C AND K Heating, Cooling & Plumbing
I was glad to receive the letter from Angie’s list dated March 1, 2012 stating that the client has withdrawn her complaint and hope she has had her furnace repaired or is process of a replacement furnace. The part the furnace needed is not available from Lennox distributors anymore (documentation available on Lennox’s official site - Davenet.net) as we explained to the client. The only control boards left are ones possibly in contractor’s stock or on E-Bay as the client found. We personally, do not purchase parts on E-Bay because of the lack of guarantee on the part. This is the same for calling other dealers for parts, especially when it is an electronic part. C and K guarantees our work and replacement parts and desires all of our customers to be satisfied. We are sorry that this could not be the case this time. Sincerely, Jason Wandrey Service Manager

A plumber got us an estimate on a variety of large and small jobs. He had it to us first thing in the morning the day after he came out to get information for the estimate. The day the plumber had arranged to come to cap off two unused lines was an unexpectedly hectic one for me. He called ahead to let me know he would be a few minutes late. That was the first I had remembered he was coming. I explained my husband could let him in but nobody could let him out. He let himself out and left the paperwork just where I asked him to. Though they require payment at the time of service I had not left a check for the plumber. He let me call the payment in later that afternoon while I literally had only a couple of minutes between other appointments. They couldn't have made it easier. I will use them again.
Description of Work: Gave estimate for many issues. Delivered service of capping off two unused lines and removing old sink and toilet tank.

Installation took most of one day, which seems about right considering the amount of work involved. Technician was very professional. He even started to take off his shoes before he came inside before we told him that that wouldn't be necessary. You have to deal with water piping, gas lines, PVC ventilation pipes, and applicable building codes to install a tankless water heater. Technician handled every aspect of job and firm arranged for city inspector to show up when he was done.
Description of Work: Tankless water heater was installed. This involved connect a gas line to heater, putting in some new water pipes, and installing vents.

Technician was very professional and explained things clearly.
Description of Work: Evaluated relief valve in plumbing line. We believed the problem was due to new water heater. It turned out to be a bad and unnecessary valve. He gave us the part to complete the job ourselves so that he didn't have to charge us for a service call.

I recently moved into a townhouse and discovered in the first cold snap that the furnace would not start. The technician found that the intake vent was clogged. Because the initial installation was done incorrectly when the townhouse was built, the clog could not be simply cleared satisfactorily, despite a valiant effort by the tech. A temporary fix was made to supply heat and parts ordered to vent correctly. A portion of the venting was replaced and the repair was made permanently a few weeks later. Though the wrong part was provided by the parts supplier, the tech made a trip back to the supplier to get the correct parts. I was given the option to reschdule the visit or wait until he returned with the correct part (I chose to wait). Work was done neatly and all mess cleaned up well. The fix will make it easier to clear any debris in vents to prevent any future problems. Technician was polite, personable, and explained the problem clearly. He also took the time to make sure that I was comfortable with the operation of a furnace that I was unfamiliar with. I especially appreciated the phone call to let me know the tech was on the way to my home for both trips (and he was) so that I could meet him at my home and miss a minimal amount of work.
Description of Work: Furnace did not start. Furnace serviced and problem diagnosed.

Every person from this company was professional, courteous, efficient and friendly. They started with the demolition phase and tore out the old unit, opened up ceiling joists in the basement and cut the holes in the floors for the vents. They installed a furnace and central air unit. They built the duct work and installed it. Since it was Summer time, they started the central air. When the weather changed, they came out and started the furnace. Calling them on the phone is a real treat! The person answering the phone is so polite, I wish every business answered the phone and treated it's phone call this courteously.
Description of Work: They removed an old gravity fed furnace. Then sized and installed a new high efficiency furnace, all the duct work, a central air conditioning unit and a programmable thermostat.
