Description of Work: Rob Genove runs the most resposive and professional HVAC company in the Roslindale, West Roxbury, Dedham MA area, in my opinion. He responded to my inquiry immediately, and followed up twice to earn my business. His prices, service, and business acumen is second to none. A truly well managed, customer service and satisfaction focused company. Due to MassEnergy contract, we could not use Genove, but would have in a blink if we could have.

Great service! I called Genove when my central air-conditioning would not cool. They came out immediately, assessed the problem and gave an estimate. The first small fix did not work (not because of Genove, but because my outdoor unit had multiple problems). Despite this, Genove came out again and re-assessed the problem. They gave another estimate, obtained and quickly replaced the part.
Description of Work: Central air-conditioning would not cool. Genove replaced the dual converter in the outside unit. They made the least expensive and most practical fix first. The house cooled for a day but stopped again. Genove came out again, quickly, and determined that I needed a new condenser. They consulted with one another (so that one tech wasn't making the assessment alone), ordered the condenser, got a good deal on the price and replaced it in a shockingly short amount of time. The central air works almost better than it did before.

They came on time, as scheduled, and when they arrived they told me they don't service window air conditioners. However the gentleman, Anthony Caira, was extremely helpful and offered suggestions and took a look for free. He was very helpful and I couldn't ask for any better customer service. He went beyond the call of duty, and I'm a harsh critic, so that's saying a lot.
Description of Work: I needed work done on my window air conditioning unit. I hired them for the Big Deal.

Overall, I was happy with Genove's response whenever we had difficulties with our boiler. They answered the phone quickly, got technicians out ASAP and were very responsive and professional.
Description of Work: Genove was our oil company for seven years at our previous house. They performed annual maintenances and came more than once to deal with problems with the boiler.

We were very happy with the professionalism and the results of the service. Our AC is working very well and has made the last few hot days a non-factor when we are inside the home.
Description of Work: We moved into a new home with central AC, but during the heat wave, the system could not cool the rooms to comfortable levels. The technician inspected the entire system and figured out two potential issues which he tested and corrected. The system apparently had not been serviced in awhile so it was low on refrigerant and the drain line was also clogged which resulted in water buildup and leakage around the unit.

Phil, Frank and the people who work for them are the best. When I was looking to purchase my home almost 20 years ago, they came several times to look at my systems, make recommendations, etc. as a courtesy not knowing if I would buy the house or use them for my oil and service. I did buy and have used them since, I also make it a condition for my tenants to use them as I trust their service. Whenever I have needed them for service or an emergency, they come immediately. Their professionalism, quality of service, responsiveness, and courtesy are all top notch. There are less expensive providers, but I have always valued our relationship and feel confident that they will take care of me if needed. Not many providers these days that one can say that about, esp. without hesitation.
Description of Work: Inspection, oil, service, tune-ups for close to 20 years. I need a new boiler and they most recently came out to give me a quote.

I didn?t select them at the end but they were very professional. Their bids were very competitive. However, I chose to go with another service provider to get the work done. They were prompt and gave a detailed bid. They came on time and they were able to come out the day I called them.

I called them on a Saturday when our heating system was acting up (holiday weekend, less than 20 degrees outside). The very nice guy who answered the phone said that they'd have somebody out within two hours. The serviceman arrived about 80 minutes later. He took a quick look at the system, observed the malfunction, and knew what needed to be fixed. Basically it hadn't been serviced in a long time, so one-half of a standard maintenance overhaul was required. He finished in under 90 minutes. He was efficient and left the area clean. The only thing I found strange was that he couldn't give me an estimate of how much it would cost. I called the office later that week to find out how much they would be charging me. The total was at the low end of what I'd guesstimated -- especially given that it was a Saturday. I would definitely use them again!

Very quick fix and they were very reassuring that it was no big deal and could be fixed permanently with the new part. They were very professional and knowledgable.
Description of Work: We have three heat zones in our house. Our heat shot up really high on the second floor and when we had someone come out to figure out what was going on, they told us they could do a quick fix for now and what we really needed was a replacement of a part that would solve the problem altogether. They just needed to order a part and they could come back in a few days.

We turned on our heat for the first time this season and the furnace was churning out black smoke. Genove was able to come out and clean the furnace on Friday (called on Monday morning). Luckily we didn't need heat during the four day wait. Once cleaned, the furnace worked just fine.

I FOUND THAT GENOVE DISPLAYED A GREAT DISREGARD FOR MY NEEDS. THEY MIGHT HAVE COMPETITIVE PRICES, BUT THEIR PEOPLE ARE POORLY TRAINED IN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEIR BUSINESS PRACTICES ARE HIGHLY QUESTIONABLE.
Description of Work: I HAD A SERVICE CONTRACT FOR THE FURNACE, PAID MY BILLS ON TIME, BUT IN MARCH RAN OUT OF OIL (THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO JUST FILL IT WITHOUT A CALL FROM ME). I CALLED THEM AS I HAD NO HEAT AND WAS OUT OF OIL. THE SERVICE MAN ON-CALL REFUSED TO COME OUT, WOULDN'T GIVE ME HIS NAME AND THAT NIGHT THE PIPES FROZE. I CALLED ANOTHER COMPANY AND GOT HEAT THE NEXT DAY. I REFUSED TO PAY GENOVE THE OUTSTANDING $200 BILL AS THE REPAIRS TO THE HOUSE WERE MORE THAN THAT. THEY TOOK ME TO SMALL CLAIMS. NOW I'M COUNTER SUING THEM FOR THE DAMAGES. OUTRAGEOUS BEHAVIOR FROM THEM!
