Description of Work: Replaced outside heat pump and air handler in crawl space. The salesman Lee was great to work with, and the installation staff did a good job. It is hard at times to get an appointment without booking several months out.

Description of Work: I wanted commercial work that needed to be done; one of my tenants was out of AC and I called them to come out. It took the 3-4 days before I heard anything back. Also, my daughter was having a problem with her AC; ARS came out and checked the system and said it was old and they needed to replace it. She then had another company that just pumped a bunch of freon in it and fixed the small repair. I was not satisfied.

Response from ARS Rescue Rooter
I am sorry that the customer was not satisfied and I have spoken with him to investigate the matter. There are 2 separate issues. The customer indicates that he visited our office and spoke with an older woman in the commercial department who would schedule a visit. ARS has over 200 employees at this location but the commercial department has only 1 female employee and she is under 30. It sounds foolish but we have no idea you he may have met and we have no record of his visit. Our commercial service manager Steve Hallacy has attempted to contact the customer and has left many messages. We will gladly assist him in any way possible. He also mentions that his daughter had us to her home in May. He said the unit was low on freon and that we did a leak test but did not offfer to repair and simply suggested replacing it. Our records indicate that we did discover the unit was low on refrigerant and we offered to perform a leak test but his daughter declined. Since the unit had a leak we also offered the second option of getting an estimate on replacing the unit which she also declined. It is our feeling that it is not in the best interest of the customer to charge them for adding refrigerant without finding and fixing the leak.(this is like adding air to a tire with a nail in it - it may fix it temporarily but it is not the correct repair - you need to fix the leak first) I apologize for the confusion with his appointment but I feel we did the right thing in not charging the customer to add freon to a leaking system - I will gladly offer to return to his daughter home now that summer is over and perform a leak check for free to reach a correct solution. I would request that the customer contact us for these free services and reconsider the F rating Thank you. David Dombrowski Manager ARS 919-291-4682

Everything works fine.
Description of Work: We use them since we’ve been in the house for 35 years. We have two systems, and last year, one of them was leaking freon so we had them replace the furnace and the AC. We also had a humidifier on our furnace and by mistake, they had taken that out too when they replaced the old one. They came back and put in a new humidifier. They also only put one carbon monoxide thing in and when the inspector came to check the system, he said we needed two; they came back and did that too.

Very poor
Description of Work: The kitchen faucet was leaking at the base. The plumber tried to disassemble the existing faucet but told me it was frozen and had to be replaced. He had one kitchen faucet on his truck but it was not one I liked and the price was much higher than I expected. I asked if I could run to Home Depot to select one but he explained there would be additional charges for his return to install and there was no guarantee it could happen that day. I felt preasured to take what he had. I already had plans to remodel my kitchen which included replacement of the sink. The plumber was so unimpressive!

Response from ARS Rescue Rooter
ARS has not been to this customers home in over 2 1/2 years. The work described was performed on Jan 29,2010. During this time, the homeowner has never called or expressed any displeasure. I do not know why this report is filed now. The total cost was $448.20 and included the service call for the plumber, a replacement faucet with a model with a lifetime warranty, and the labor and materials to install the unit. That particular plumber is no longer with ARS so I only have written records. It would be normal policy that if a homeowner wishes to provide their own faucet, we will be glad to install it at a reduced price. However we can not wait alone in their home while they go to Home Depot and there would be another "minimal service travel charge" to dispatch a truck a second time.Again I am very sorry that she was unhappy but this is the first time we have been notified since Jan 2010. I will gladly offer her a $50 discount off any future work since she is unhappy. with our performance. I would appreciate it if the records for service and cost could be updated on this report.Again,the homeowner may contact me directly David Dombrowski manager 919-291-4682 if I can help in any way. Thank you.

GREAT!!
Description of Work: I used ARS for a Heating/AC replacements and decided to call them about a plumbing problem I was having. THey were very quick to respond, very professional and only recommended what I needed at that time rather than add ins I was interested in looking at. Their concern was focused around fixing the problem not selling additional services not really needed at this time. We decided to repiping our house due to faulty piping installed in the 80's. THe team they sent out was very careful of our surroundings and minimized the amount of sheetrock cutting to areas that could easily be repaired. They cleaned up after themselves and met all commitments.

Did a great job.
Description of Work: Our lower a/c unit was not functioning earlier last August while very HOT outside. ARS added some coolant at the time. (I forgot to do the Angie's List entry at the time). They were just out here last week to install a new a/c for the lower level of our house, two new programmable thermostats, and Aprilaire air cleaners.
