I MADE THE APPOINTMENT WITH THE OFFICE BASED ON THE COUPON IN ANGIE'S LIST NEWSLETTER. I MENTIONED THE COUPON FOR $25 OFF SHE SAID TO SHOW IT TO THE WORKER WHEN HE ARRIVED. (I HAD OTHER COUPONS FOR $25 OFF MAINTENANCE AND THOUGHT THEY WERE PRICE COMPETITIVE.) THE SOONEST THEY COULD TAKE MY APPOINTMENT WAS ONE MONTH LATER. THE APPOINTMENT TIME WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BETWEEN 12-4PM. I CALLED THEIR OFFICE AT 3:45PM ASKING WHERE HE WAS, NO ONE HAD HEARD FROM THE GUY. THE OFFICE CALLED ME BACK AT 4:15 TO SAY HE WOULD ARRIVE IN 15-20 MINUTES. HE SHOWED UP ONE HOUR LATER AT 5:15PM. HE WOULD NOT ACCEPT THE ANGIE'S LIST COUPON SAYING IT WAS A MAINTENANCE CALL NOT A SERVICE CALL. THEN HE HAD THE NERVE TO OFFER ANOTHER PACKAGE: TWO VISITS FOR THE PRICE OF $150. I DECLINED.

VERY UN-PROFESSIONAL. UNABLE TO VERIFY PROBLEM WITH FURNACE THEN ONLY WANTED TO ARGUE WITH ME INSTEAD OF MAKING THE REPAIR.
Description of Work: THE IGNITER MALFUNCTIONED ON MY FURNACE. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO CONFIRM THE MALFUNCTION. INSTEAD, HE SIMPLY SOLD ME THE ''COMFORT CLUB'' SCAM. THEN, WHEN THE IGNITER MALFUNCTIONED AFER HE LEFT, I CALLED HIM TO REPAIR IT. HE PREFERRED TO ARGUE WITH ME THAN TO REPAIR THE FURNACE.

BRAND NEW HEATER BROKE DOWN 4 TIMES!!!!!! CAME OUT TO FIX SAME DAY OF PHONE CALL. FINALLY DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS INSTALLED COMPLETELY WRONG!!!!! FIXED IT AND I HAVEN'T HAD A PROBLEM SINCE. I AM, HOWEVER, VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE INITIAL QUALITY OF WORK AND THAT IT TOOK SO LONG TO DISCOVER WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, AS THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE SUCH A REPUTABLE COMPANY. HOWEVER, THEY DID STAND BY THEIR PRODUCT AND FIX THE PROBLEM.

THE HUMIDIFIERS WERE INSTALLED WITHOUT THE NEW THERMOSTATS THAT CAME WITH THEM. THE INSTALLER PUT BACK MY OLD THERMOSTATS. THE INSTALLERS PERSONAL GROOMING LEFT A GREAT DEAL TO BE DESIRED! THE MANAGER WAS INDEED HONORABLE AND CORRECTED THE SITUATION WHEN I TOLD HIM WHAT THE INSTALLER HAD DONE. HE, AS WELL AS I, FELT THAT I HAD PAID FOR THE NEW THERMOSTATS AND I SHOULD HAVE HAD THEM. I HAVE THEM NOW.

THEY WERE VERY PROMPT TO RETURN MY CALL, AND THE UNIT WAS INSTALLED THE NEXT DAY. SINCE THEY WORK BY FIXED BID, THERE IS NO HAGGLING ON PRICE. THEY STAND BEHIND THEIR WORK, AND ARE VERY RESPONSIVE IF THERE ARE ANY PROBLEMS. THEY WERE VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT WHAT TYPE/SIZE OF UNIT WAS BEST SUITED FOR OUR HOME, AND THEIR PROFESSIONALISM WAS APPARENT FROM BEGINNING TO END. GREAT RESOURCE.

WHEN THEY INSTALLED THE NEW BOILER THEY WORKED WITH US TO SCHEDULE IT DURING SOME THE FEW WARM DAYS WE HAD IN DECEMBER. THE CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION CREW WERE GENUINELY CONCERNED IN GETTING THE JOB DONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE WITH OUT SACRIFICING QUALITY. THEY WENT ALL OUT TO GET THE JOB DONE WELL WITHIN THE TIME FRAME THEY SAID THEY WOULD. THE WERE VERY COMMUNICATIVE AND GAVE US FREQUENT AND REALISTIC UPDATES ON THEIR PROGRESS AND WHEN OWNERS/RESIDENTS CAME DOWN TO SEE THE JOB THEY ANSWERED QUESTIONS PROFESSIONALLY AND WITH GOOD HUMOR. UPON COMPLETION THEY LEFT THE AREA CLEANER THAN IT WAS. WE WILL USE THEM FOR SERVICING AND ANY OTHER NEEDS WE HAVE FROM NOW ON.
Description of Work: THEY REPLACED A STEAM BOILER FOR OUR 10 UNIT CONDOMINIUM BUILDING. THEY ALSO PROVIDED THE BEST SERVICE DURING THEIR EVALUATION AND ESTIMATE VISITS, NO OTHER COMPANY TOOK THE TIME TO EXPLAIN TO US THE WAY OUR SYSTEM WORKED, WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND REVIEWED OUR OPTIONS AS CLEARLY AND AS COMPLETELY AS THEY DID. THEY ALSO DID NOT TRY TO UPSELL US A LARGER SIZE (AN THUS MORE EXPENSIVE) BOILER THAN WE REQUIRED.
