Awful service, don't use them and don't even consider it!! They will charge you for every minute they are there. I was in traffic trying to get to the property and they charged me for the time they were "waiting". Then they charged me for the time, said they fixed the issue, took payment, and the issue came back hours later. Unacceptable for $500!! What a ripoff! You do not get what you paid for with this company. Look elsewhere and avoid this company propped up on fake reviews.

Response from Boston Equipment Service Company
Dear client, We are so sorry to disappoint you with the level of quality of service we delivered that day. 1) Our rate is $65 travel and $110 per hour labor. The first hour is $175. It has not changed in the last 8 years and it is the same for everybody. We told you that we usually address the issue in the first hour and fix it if the fix does not require any part replacement. I will explain why the repair took so long and cost you $450. I was also extremely uncomfortable that you did not want to pay the invoice before we gave you a discount. This repair did not qualify for any discount which I will get into this matter shortly. 2) You called me and made an appointment. I ask you who will be present in the workplace? You said to me. We always want the landlord or tenant to be present for liability issues. The day of the service you texted me and said you are 15 min late. You also said the basement door is open, you can start the repair and don't bother the tenant because he or she is sleeping. We addressed the issue in 45 min and for further investigation, we need to get into the apartment. It has been 45min, you were not there and not answering your phone. My tech was waiting to hear back from you because you told us don't bother the tenant. You finally called me back and said I am traveling and won't be able to make it and my tenant is not answering at the moment. So it was not true you being in there 15min late first place. Which tells me that you were not even in Mass. Your tenant opened the door 1.5 hours later. My tech is stored in your basement and my entire day is crashed. Simply you were not being honest about being present in the work site and not even organized your tenant. After the repair is completed and time for the payment, you start talking about having so many properties, if we give you a discount, you will keep calling us. I will give you a discount but I will not service you again because of today's irresponsible behavior. Leaving my tech in someone's basement for hours is not acceptable.

Excellent! I can highly recommend Emre and his Crew! This was the third time I used B.E.S.C for HVAC-related work, this time to re-connect a large AC condensor on the third floor of a large deck - and I was as pleased as the previous times. Communication was great from the very first phone call. Emre asked very detailed questions to make sure he would have everything he needed to get the job done efficiently. He was very good about checking in and confirming the appointment. He worked super efficiently. Very professional and thoughtful. I have already passed along this contact to two friends who were looking for AC repairs. Will definitely hire B.E.S.C. again in the future !

Socrates did an amazing job. He quickly determined there was a leak. He was the only technician who was able to find the actual leak in the pipes. He had to put Nitrogen through the pipes to increase pressure in order to find the leak, and then brought all the necessary tools to cut the bad parts of the pipe and install a new connector to fix the issue. Very detailed and calm, explained everything well and

They are always incredibly responsive, professional, and have a great attitude. Not only have they fixed issues, but they have also made proactive recommendations for how to prevent further issues. Our A?C is under the deck, and very difficult to get to - these guys go after it without complaint. Highly, highly recommended!
Description of Work: We have worked with BES a number of times - both for regular service of the HVAC, and for call out when the heat or A/C have mysteriously stopped working. They also helped us get our Nest configured as the original wiring in our home was not compatible.

After having a horrible experience with another local company, I was so happy to find BESC. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this entire experience. Everyone was extremely responsive, flexibly and helpful. They went above and beyond in every way. I will be calling again for any future services I may need. Thank you Socrates for making my day better and cooler!

All rooms are getting real nice and cool and clean air now. BEService is Strongly recommended.
Description of Work: I have an attic A/C system that was installed by the previous owner. The system was in good condition, and my living room was getting cooled great, but some of the rooms were not getting good air, and one room got none. I checked the attic and notices some of the ducts came off the joints, they were duct-taped! Not to mention the ducts themselves mostly looked worn out and damaged. Turns out the previous owner had it done cheap by his son-in-law! I found Boston Equipment Service Company off of Yelp, where it had some real good reviews. Emre is the owner and the service professional. He deserves every single start he's got! He return my calls immediately, showed up for inspection on time and laid out the problems with the ducts. In addition to the joints the ducts themselves were all worn and was actually feeding the house with fiberglass! He gave me a very reasonable quote to replace all ducts with a better product, that looks multi-layered insulation flexible ducts that can be cut to any length without needing joints. He had it all done and cleanup the same day. He also inspected the rest of the system and replaced filters etc while he was on the job, all without extra cost.

Dear client, we scheduled a visit with you and visited your house at the time we promised. You were not present. There was a teenage person who was not able to communicate. We called you 3 times in order to complete the job but no respond after we spent half an hour. You called us back after we left your place and asked to come back. Unfortunitly we had to keep our commitment with our other client. We have very restricted schedule during summer time and we have to follow it. I beliave you should call us inadvance if you can not make your appointment or/and reschedule it instead of leaving a bad review. Regards

I was told that I need to change my zone controller from 2 zone to 3 zones to fix the problem. I was charged $218 for the Honeywell HZ311, which is available on Amazon for $114. Paid another $250 to replace the zone controller but the problem persisted. He blamed it all on my dampers, that all 4 had gone bad without properly testing them. After the technician left, I checked the new zone controller, he had used only 2 of the 3 zones! The third zone was left unused, so no wonder my problem was not solved. Not sure why the zone controller was replaced at all if he was not planning to use the third zone at all. Very poor and deceptive service.

Response from Boston Equipment Service Company
Dear client, You ask for zone control replacement and mentioned that you were really confident that was the problem. We visited your house for A/C maintenance and did an assessment for your zone control. We recommended the replacement of zone control and zone dampers, but you were so confident that it wasn't a damper problem. You asked to change only the zone control. We gave you an estimate and you approved it. We are professional and work with local part distribution center. Amazon is not our partner. Usually end users use Amazon. However you except our price before we place an order. We changed the zone control and wired 2 zone only, because that was the way of the existing setup. We used 3 zone control because it was the same cost of 2 zone, which also gave you the opportunities for future project. As a result, we wanted to changed your damper and you did not want to do it, after a while it stopped working efficiently and you wrote us a bad review.

Great. Someone answered the phone when I called at 12pm on a Wednesday, and they scheduled me right then and there for 8am the following day, Thursday. Emery was very professional and efficient. The job took maybe forty minutes, and my AC was restored without problem. It needed a part replaced.

We strongly recommend Emery for home kitchen appliance repair! Excellent service. Our dishwasher has been broken for a while and our fridge started malfunctioning as well. We hadn't missed the dishwashwer too much but really had to take care of the fridge right away. He took the call when we called him before 8AM. (The other companies we called just went to answering service or voicemail.) He came within an hour of the call. He was thoughtful and efficient, and diagnosed the problem with our fridge cooling system quickly. He quickly determined that it was a fan issue and was able to find the necessary repair parts the same day! He returned a few hours later to install and finish the job. Very happy with the work and service - saved us from purchasing a new fridge! The dishwasher wasn't as straightforward. When he started a rinse cycle as a quick check, it seemed to work while it hadn't for us. After some more sleuthing, he determined that it was a problem with the header board, which would be too expensive to replace relative to the price of a new dishwasher. So he recommended that we replace the dishwasher. He spent several hours and two trips on the diagnosis and repair (the second trip was to install the new fan). The $285 he charged us included both parts and labor.

Emery listened to the AC unit for 3 seconds and immediately knew something was wrong with the fan. it took a while to get the AC unit out of the rusted metal sleeve so he could look at it. When he finally did, he said that rust had corroded the housing unit that surrounded the fan and the fan was actually hitting it. He gave us a couple of options of how he could repair it but without getting inside the unit, he wasn't sure if we would need to buy new parts or not. at the most he said it would be a $220 fix. We decided to move forward with the repair. Once he was able to get inside the unit he realized it would be a lot quicker and easier than he had suspected. He simply cut away the rusted metal that was hitting the plastic fan and now the unit works perfectly again. The fan didn't even need to be replaced! no parts needed, just labor. The airflow and cooling efficiency feels the same as before. It is humming right along with no problems! Emery was only here for an hour and 20 minutes and charged us $100 for his time. Well worth the price!!! He was professional, polite, right on time (he actually called to ask if he could come a little early), and very, very nice to deal with. He spent the time to explain to us and even show us what the actual problem was with the machine so we could make an educated decision on what to do. Although I know he had many other jobs to complete during his busy day, he took the time to make us feel comfortable with the repair options he offered and not rushed at all! In the end, he literally saved us about $600. I can't even put into words how happy my husband and I are with his work. I would call him again in a heartbeat! Once again, Angie's List connected us to an incredible service provider!
Description of Work: I called 6 different service companies to come out and repair our 8 year old through the wall air conditioner to no avail before finding Boston Equipment Service Company. No one else would even come to the house for an estimate! I finally found Emery online and gave him a call. he returned my call in five minutes, literally. He came out the very next day (within 24 hours of my call). The air conditioner was making a horrible noise and we thought something was wrong with the fan but we weren't sure. Before spending $750 on a new unit and installation we wanted to see if this one could be fixed.
