+ -1 moreWe called and scheduled for a service appointment. The technician did call but told us he would come back another day because he could not find parking. Really? This seems unprofessional given the fact that most people have to stay home from work for the service and that this should be everyday business in the city. Needless to say, we won't be calling them back
Description of Work: No work was performed.

+ -1 moreVery well done. He arrived on time, presented ID, had all of his own equipment and left within 30 minutes. He was polite and professional, and did not try any hard-sell tactics, just provided facts and information. He also answered my questions about air conditioning for our two-flat, sharing options and very rough cost ranges with me.
Description of Work: Provided routine inspection and cleaning of boiler for what I thought was a fair, competitive price, and there was no extra service or travel charge to just come to my home as there would have been from other companies I checked with. I observed the work, and thought he did a very good job of inspecting, asking questions and then cleaning. Seeing the boiler's condition (had not been cleaned for a couple of years and there was quite a bit of particulate, rusty matter on the floor of the boiler) , the company also recommended a chimney liner to prevent condensation and corrosion of inside of chimney. The explanation for this recommendation, as I understood it, was that with the energy-efficient broiler we installed about 5 years ago, the condensation from exhaust that collects on the inside of the chimney is causing this matter or debris to form. He explained with a liner/exhaust pipe (which would also serve the hot water heater exhaust) there would be less of that matter forming and so less damage to boiler and chimney tuckpointing. He gave me an estimate of $1500 for that liner, which also has an exhaust cap that would prevent birds from getting/falling into it, and this would then also replace the old screen we have over the chimney now to prevent birds from falling in, which has happend to us. I will get more opinions and estimates, but I certainly always appreciate recommendations.

+ -1 moreI called on a Sunday morning. I got a call back within 30 minutes and they scheduled themselves to come within a few hours after that. B**** arrived on time, figured out the problem, explained everything clearly and made the needed repairs. No mess left behind. We had a cool , comfortable home again by Sunday afternoon. We have used them before - their prices are a little higher than others, but they do a good job.
Description of Work: trouble-shooting why our air conditioning stopped cooling the house - he re-wired the high voltage electrical wires (furnace)

+ -1 moreI had worked with this company before, so I called them at 8 AM to come out and look at the furnace after a very cold night. I initially got the business office, and was promptly contacted to schedule an appointment for 12 noon. The service technician, who turned out to be the company's owner, was on time. The problem turned out to be a limit switch. The technician performed an inspection of the furnace with some recommendations, but there was no pressure. Since I had just purchased the place, I was already aware of some issues, which he confirmed. He was a straight shooter and did not try to sell me more than I needed, but seemed very interested in doing honest work in hopes that I called him again. One thing really impressed me - When they took my furnace apart, they were very concerned about protecting my newly refinished floors. On the way out, they apologized for leaving a slight mess, which was more a result of my previously poorly maintained furnace than sloppy work. No HVAC contractor will be perfect, but I would put Affordable on the short list of approved service providers.
Description of Work: Replaced various parts on 12 year old furnace that wasn't working and performed inspection of system.

+ -1 moreOffice contact Betty initially told me I'd have to make myself available in a four hour window (8:00 AM-12:00 PM). Set appointment. Phoned Betty at 11:00 AM the day of the appointment, was told Tom is running late. Called again @ 12 and got the same response. At 1:00 PM, told Betty I'd need to move on and need to rescedule. Tom arrived at the tail end of the 2nd appointment. Once there, was very professional and answered all of my questions. Seemed to do a thorough job. Received and took several business calls during the course of servicing my furnace.
Description of Work: Tom inspected, cleaned and vacuumed the furnace for my newly purchased home. Replaced air and humidifier filters. Disposed of filter boxes. Gave advice and answered my questions.

+ -1 moreTHE SERVICEMAN TOM REFUSED TO CLEAN IT SAYING THAT IT WAS COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT AND I NEEDED A WHOLE NEW FURNACE. THEN HE PROCEEDED TO TRY AND PUT A SCARE IN ME BY ASKING ME IF I EVEN WANTED THE FURNACE TURNED BACK ON BECAUSE IT WAS IN SUCH BAD SHAPE. HE QUOTED ME A PRICE FOR A NEW ONE AT $2500. I CALLED ANOTHER PLACE FOR A SECOND OPINION WHO SAID A NEW FURNACE WAS NOT NECESSARY, IT JUST NEEDED A VERY GOOD CLEANING AND ONE PART REPLACED. TOM WAS NOT ON TIME, BUT DID CALL TO SAY THAT HE WAS RUNNING LATE.
Description of Work: I HAD THIS COMPANY COME OUT TO DO THE YEARLY CLEANING AND INSPECTION OF A FURNACE IN A HOME I HAD JUST PURCHASED.

+ -1 moreWE HAD A SECOND OPINION WHO ADVISED THAT REPLACEMENT WAS NOT NECESSARY. AND THE BOILER IS WORKING FINE. I DOUBT THIS COMPANY'S HONESTY NOW AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEIR SERVICES. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THEY WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOILER REPLACEMENT AT THE COST OF UP TO $5000 WHEN ALL IT NEEDED WAS TO BE CLEANED AND DRIED OUT.
Description of Work: THEY INSPECTED OUR BOILER AND ADVISED US TO REPLACE IT AT A COST OF BETWEEN $3500 AND $5000 AS THE RESULT OF OVERFILLING THE STEAM HEATING SYSTEM.
