I called at 7:00 the morning after labor day, a day that weather people were calling a heat emergency. Our air conditioner had started making hideous loud rattling noise the evening before. I was told a serviceman could be at my house around 10:30 and that was when he arrived. It took maybe 10 minutes to diagnose a bad capacitor on the outdoor unit and another 10 to repair it. The air conditioner was then working, but he was concerned that the unit was vibrating quite a lot. He took some time to explain to me some options, took it apart to diagnose that problem, and told me Henson Robinson would call me with a quote for that repair. Overall I am super pleased with the experience. Fast response, professional service, reasonable cost. I would definitely call them again.

Description of Work: They were prompt and nice. They installed a new HVAC system for us last year. They had come out 3 times since. I don’t think that a new unit should have those issues on the new product. They were responsive and everything has been working fine since.

They were very prompt and the hard copy estimate arrived in days as promised. The estimate included 2 different options, which I did not request but was appreciated. It was great service all around but the price was beyond what my budget could afford.

Everything was done according to plan. The technician showed up at the arranged time, and all work was done promptly and professionally. I had a few questions about settings for the furnace and humidifier in the winter, and he answered those to my satisfaction. This is a long established HVAC contractor, and my family has used them for many years. Their service personnel are well trained and understand the systems on which they work.
Description of Work: Semi-annual heating and cooling system check. Tested furnace and humidifier for proper operation, cleaned furnace burners, replaced furnace filter, flushed humidifier drain hose. Technician also turned saddle water valve on line to humidifier on and off to prevent lime and scale buildup.

Henson Robinson was the only company that told us we would never be happy with anything less than a zoned configuration. The other 3 providers were willing to take shortcuts and would never guarantee it would solve our problem. Installation went smooth and the installer even came out a second time to give us a refresher course on the controls. We also purchased a water heater from them in 2013. They were the most reasonably priced and the installers were very professional.

As planned, only better, because of the thorough cleaning of our unit.
Description of Work: We signed up a few years ago for prepaid checkups for our air conditioning unit in the spring and furnace in the fall and are thrilled with the results. Our spring inspection was great. Cody cleaned the unit with a special solution, in addition to the other checks. He was on time, courteous, and thorough. I recommend this service and company highly.

They were very good, very experienced, they did a good job, they were on time, and the price was reasonable. The guy who checked the air conditioner found the duct work problem. He called in all the materials needed from his cell phone while he was in the basement. That way when the workers came to do the work they had all of the materials they needed. They had 2 guys working for more than half a day on the duct work.

They make sure everything is working right. They are always prompt and seem to know what they are doing. I haven't had any problem with the system so they must be keeping it in good shape. I'm on a yearly contract with them. They are an old reputable company with them and I haven't had any trouble with them, I've been happy with their service. I never give anyone an A because they can always do better.

Bill came out to the house and took down the dimensions of the duct runs and later gave me a written estimate of the cost to remove the flex ductwork, fabricate and install aluminum ductwork. The job was estimated to take two days and was scheduled to my flexibility. The guys who came to do the work were timely, nice, and professional. They took extra care to put down appropriate carpet proctectors through out the work area (my house has lightcolored carpeting). The guys didnt complain about the tight crawlspace or the tight access way into the crawl space. The job ended up taking a day in a half. I was very pleased. It took some time to receive the bill, but that afforded me more time to pay it, so it worked for me. I've always been pleased with the work from this company.
Description of Work: I had my flex tubing ductwork removed from my 15 year old house and aluminum ductwork installed.

The job was done fast but the only problem came to billing. They had billed us more than what was estimated and once we called for an adjustment it took several months to have it corrected. They tried to turn us into a collection agency, it took talking to the owner of the business to disolve the issue.
Description of Work: They removed our old octopus furance and replaced with a new one. They also installed new intake vents.

Response from Henson Robinson Co
We looked up in the job history and a furnace was installed November 9, 2005 for $2,759.00. They paid in June of 06 and there are no notations on billing problems or collections in the computer history. I am afraid that I do not understand the problems as notations would have been made in the computer history. My file is in storage and would take some time to find, but for the amount billed I do not believe that we could have removed a gravity furnace, installed a furnace and reduct for $2,759. They may have us confused with someone else... We never bill for more than the estimated amount unless a change to the work to be performed was made and agreed upon by all parties. We have installed equipment and run into unforeseen problems and not raised the price. Unforeseen problems can just be part of the job fortunately it doesn't happen very often. I am at a loss for an explanation on this one.

Good experience. The technician appeared as scheduled, and the visit was relatively short as he found no issues with our system. Recommended a filter change. We understand that having this maintenance agreement may result in our receiving priority emergency service from this company should we need it, but so far, we haven't needed it.
Description of Work: We have a service contract with this company to evaluate the heating and air conditioning systems in our home twice per year. In the fall, they test run the furnace, inspecting for deterioration of parts, condition of filter, proper operation of furnace mounted humidifier, correct appearance of burner flame, proper and timely ignition, correct duration of heat cycle, etc.

Bill came to the house, looked around and told us a friend of his would be in touch to do the work. After a couple of weeks we had not heard anything. Emailed Henson Robinson again, and finally received a call from J.J. We constantly had to call J.J. for updates. The J.J. appears at the door last Saturday, July 31, 2010, at 9:30 a.m. to do the job. We had no idea he was coming. Needless to say we are starting all over with an estimate from another more professtional company. Today is August 5, 2010, and our initial email was dated June 5, 2010.
Description of Work: We e-mailed to request an estimate for the installation of a solar attic ventilation fan.

Response from Henson Robinson Co
When I contacted the other contractor I asked them to tell the homeowner that they could do my portion more cost effectivly than Henson Robinson Company. This would have benefited them had they decided to have one contractor do all of the work rather than 2 contractors doing similar work. Unfortunatly there was a communication problem between the homeowner and the other contractor.

Work started within two weeks after I signed contracts. Workmen cleaned up any messes each night. They showed up everyday until the job was finished. One day they were late due to an emergency service problem (due to the floods and storms we've been having everyday). They called and told me they would be late. Very unusual for most companies. Work was completed in a very timely manner. After completion they walked me through the job to show me all they had done and explained it and equipment operation to me then asked if I had any questions. Then advised me to call them if I had any questions or problems.
Description of Work: The workmen were very neat, did excellent work, explained how systems work after they were installed, advised me if they were going to be late showing up on the job site any day. The system design was very good. They found and corrected existing problems in my systems. Did not require a deposit before doing the work.
