Were timely and informative on the install. The pump combo was an AC/DC back-up that provides more protection than a battery only pump.
Description of Work: Replacement of sump pump with new sump and back-up combo.

Sherman Mechanical was wonderful. They brought their own generators and everything. I think they would have brought lunch and/or dinner if I asked them!
Description of Work: Our basement flooded and Sherman Mechanical put in a new sump pump, battery backup, and looked at and repaired our furnace. They also replaced the air conditioning line throughout the basement basement. We signed on to have our furnace and air conditioning units serviced seasonally. Plus they installed new thermostats.

Good. They were very busy and one of the sales people from commercial came to our house b/c residential was so backed up. Very knowledgable and to the point.
Description of Work: Our furnace wasn't working. It was old and the person came out and gave and estimate on installing a new one. We had very little money to do it. He recommended we just replace the fan motor. Good news is he was up front and honest. Told us what was broke and we just fixed that part.

A good experience on a furnace replacement. The salesman was quick with no hard-sell tactics. The quote was fair and the installation work was very professional. Additional gas line work was completed at no additional charge. We highly recommend Sherman Mechanical.

UPDATE: THE OWNER CALLED AND HAS APOLOGIZED FOR THE MISUNDERSTANDING AND WILL NOT BE CHARGING US FOR ANY SERVICES. This company is incredibly unprofessional and unethical. Users BEWARE. My company has a salon, which we needed plumbing and construction work done for. Sherman Mechanical was one of three local companies we called to provide a quote. This was in June 2010. The woman I made an appointment with over the phone confirmed the date said they would arrive in a 3 hour time frame. A Sherman plumber went to our salon, scoped it out for 15 minutes and I was emailed a quote. The quote was extremely high, so we did not move forward with them and they did NO WORK FOR US. One week later, we were handed a $290.00 bill, that was mailed to our salon. Again, they did absolutely no work and have changed their story several times as to why they have billed us. First, they said that they were hired to do work - which they were not, and they did not do any work for us. Second, they said that they charge for all quotes. This was never communicated when making the initial appointment and a bill for $290.00 for a plumber who went in and checked the place out for 15 minutes is atrocious. Then, they changed their story once more and said that they charge for extensive quotes. Again, they came in for 15 minutes and scoped out my salon and the quote was not extensive by any means. It was for the plumbing work for 2 pedicure chairs. It is now September 2010 and Sherman Mechanical has now threatened to sue us for the $290.00 bill for work they have NOT done. It's incredibly unprofessional and unethical and I want to warn other people to not use this vendor because of the blatant disregard for ethics and professionalism Sherman Mechanical has displayed in handling this matter.
Description of Work: UPDATE: THE OWNER CALLED AND HAS APOLOGIZED FOR THE MISUNDERSTANDING AND WILL NOT BE CHARGING US FOR ANY SERVICES. Sherman Mechanical did not perform the service, but we have been in talks with them since June regarding a bill for work they have NOT performed.

The compressor kept stalling on our air conditioner, they came out and did some adjustments and suggested new breakers. Whatever they did, they fixed the problem without switching the breakers. They have always been very good.

They saved me a lot of money and problems. They are very efficient and punctual. They are obviously experts in their practice. Their prices were average, but certainly for what they did and what I was willing to spend they were excellent.
Description of Work: I had had a very bad experience with a different plumber, and I called them for their opinion. They were able to fix the problem immediately unlike the other plumber that charged me money and still did not fix the problem.

I am an engineer so I had pretty good idea what was wrong but not the tools or parts needed to perform the work. The I called the 24-hour repair number Saturday morning around 6:30AM and left a message. They returned my call by about 7:00AM and had a repairman at my house by 9:30AM. The repairman listened to my description of the problem and confirmed my diagnosis of the problem. He had all he needed to change the valve on his truck and I had heat again by about 2:00PM. The repairman worked diligently and did not take a break for lunch or otherwise extend his time.
Description of Work: Sherman provided emergency weekend repair of my hot water boiler. The original gas valve and mercury type autopilot valve, probably 40 years old, malfunctioned and needed to be replaced. Sherman installed a new gas valve and thermocouple.

I was told that the technician would arrive between 1000 and 1200. When 1230 came and no one had arrived I called another company to schedule an immediate appointment. At 1245 the dispatcher from Sherman Mechanical called me and told me that the technician was on his way. When I asked what had happened to the 1000-1200 time I was given earlier she apologized and said someone should have called me. Even though the company is 5-10 minutes from my home I was charged the minimum 30 minutes travel time that Sherman charges. I was then also charged for 15 minutes of labor (they charge in quarter hour increments). The total job cost me $86 for five minutes of work and ten minutes of travel time. I would not recommend Sherman Mechanical and I will not use them again.
Description of Work: My air conditioner compressor had stopped running so I called Sherman Mechanical. The technician came late and removed an insect from between two contact points in the compressor unit.

THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN POLITE AND EASY TO WORK WITH. THEY SEEM TO GO OUT OF THEIR WAY FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. FOR EXAMPLE, I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE OFFICE THE DAY OF MY APPOINTMENT LETTING ME KNOW THE SERVICEMAN WAS ON HIS WAY. THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE SPECIFIC AIR FILTER I NEEDED, SO THE TECHNICIAN WENT BACK TO THE OFFICE AND CAME BACK THE SAME DAY TO INSTALL IT. LEFT MY HOUSE WITH NO MESSES.
