The technician, Jose, came on time and did a wonderful job. He was also nice, friendly and knowledgeable. He explained to me a lot of the technical details so I could understand them. My furnace was repaired and is now functioning well ever since. The inspection was paid with an Angie's List coupon but since my furnace was not working well it needed the tune up. I purchased the one year maintenance agreement because it was quite interesting and included the tune up (the price shown here includes everything). Jose also gave me some precious advice about how some of the air in and out vents are not ideally located in my basement. I am going to have this changed as part of my upcoming basement remodeling project. I really felt Sila was a reliable company.
Description of Work: Thorough furnace inspection and tune up.

I had a little bit of problem with something else, he came back and tried to take care of that for me. Something else happened, so I was like you know what I'm not calling them back. I'm not sure what's going on with that. My dishwasher wasn't even involved, but when I turned it on there's water everywhere. The faucet looks beautiful, and it works, he did what I contacted them to do. He took extra time on trying to get it right. He didn't bother to charge me extra because the faucet did not work, it did not fit, he could not do it. He worked with it until it was where it needed to be.
Description of Work: The plumber did a fine job with putting in the faucet. I did not really fit correctly, he made it fit correctly.

Sila was able to install a new water heater the afternoon we moved into our house. They were prompt, professional, and informative. Angie's List had a great deal (perhaps not meant for our location). $749 for a 50-Gallon Gas Water Heater Installation.

It was very, very good. They were very good. One person came. It took about 30 to 45 minutes. Left the area very clean.
Description of Work: Purchased a Big Deal with Sila Heating & Air Conditioning for $49 for plumbing service plus one hour labor. The plumber came. I purchased it on the 19th and called them up, and they came on the 25th. They fixed the problem. The problem was that the kitchen faucet was spitting out water, as oppose to doing a stream of constance water. They changed it, there was something wrong with the filter.

They informed me in advance that I would need and exchange tank due to my local building code requirements for an extra fee. I knew this was the case, so I wasn't surprised. They called and were finishing a job around the corner early and gave me the option of them coming an hour early, which was great. It was a straightforward installation, and they finished in under an hour. It was a two person team, they were polite, professional, and didn't make a mess; even though it was wet outside and they came around to the back to access the basement. So far the unit is working as expected after a couple weeks; a marked improvement over the 15 year old unit. Angie's Deal $750 + $150 for exchange tank; which was $400 less than I paid for the same heater & tank three years earlier in a previous home.
Description of Work: I bought an Angie's List Big Deal for a 50 gal. gas water heater.

Used them twice - one for the initial diagnostics and then to replace the condensing board (sp?). I felt the price was very fair and both service technicians were punctual, professional, and educated me a bit about the system. They were honest and did not recommend anything other than what absolutely needed fixing. I would absolutely hire them again and would feel secure knowing they would only charge me for the work that needed to be done.

He spent more than an hour trying to snake the drain several different ways but was unsuccessful due to the complex plumbing. He recommended putting a camera down the drain on a separate appointment to see where the line blockage was as well as to better understand how the plumbing was run. The clog eventually went away and the camera wasn't needed but I would definitely use them again. The plumber was thorough and very professional.

Service turned out alright. I liked the plumber, he was very nice and explained things to me so that I could understand. The only issue was the part they brought was materially different then the part it was replacing. Because of that it didn't fit properly and he ended up having to re do my plumbing situation to make the part fit. So now my situation looks like a snake when it used to look straight. It took a extra two hours of work, which I wasn't charged for. They had to come back out because I had a leaking pipe when they were done. I ended up buying a service plan from them.

Was able to arrange an appointment at my time and tech showed up within the timeframe. We discussed one additional cost to make the unit more modern as the old unit was over 15 years old. He was very pleasant and there were no additional surprises. Asked him another question I was having with a toilet and he answered without hesitation- much appreciated. Would use them again.

The first person from Sila who came said i did not need to have the water heater flushed; but it turned out when the water heater was removed several weeks later by another company it had a lot of sediment and weighed a lot, making it difficult to remove. He also didn't fix the toilet downstairs; I had to have another person come out to redo it. The second person did a better job.

Good Morning, We apologize you did not have a good experience with Sila Heating & Air Conditioning. After our plumber completed the water heater flush he did note that there was a lot of sediment build-up in the water heater. A water heater flush will not remove all the sediment in the system. We did recommend to replace the system and provided an estimate to do so. The customer declined to have the water heater replaced at that time. If you would like to discuss this in more detail please contact our office at 202-338-9400. Best Regards, The Sila Team

See preceding explanation. New water heater installed as scheduled and is working well.
Description of Work: I was going to have my hot water heater flushed, but the Sila technician who came out to do it advised me to replace the water heater rather than flushing it because of its age and the risk of a leak development if it were flushed. Since I've had a long-standing relationship with Sila (i.e., it installed a central AC system and a new gas furnace a decade or so ago and I've had a maintenance contract with Sila ever since), I have a high level of confidence in Sila's advice so I opted to do as advised.
