We redid our master bath in October, 2013, including installation of a new toilet. Fast forward to August, 2014 when a clogged drain lead to water damage to the ceiling below. We called a local plumber who found the clog and cleared it. He also found that the toilet had been installed incorrectly rendering the original plumbing to that toilet unusable. Charles gave us an estimate which we accepted, and they did the repairs. The gentleman who made the estimate was punctual, polite, and professional as were the plumbers who made the repairs. From a homeowner's perspective, it was all very easy, and we are pleased with the results.
Description of Work: Replaced plumbing that was incorrectly installed by another contractor.

Our first positive experience was with David who came to our home to give us several job estimates. He was polite, concise, and offered very helpful advice. Once we decided to move ahead on one of the jobs (our master bath remodel), we were added to the schedule in a very timely manner. The job was started on time, however, the job took longer than was originally estimated because we kept adding more stuff to their list of things to do. Rob and Kevin were very nice, understanding, and patient. They did an amazing job with all of the features and details. We are very happy with our new bathroom!
Description of Work: Completely remodeled master bathroom from scratch, replaced toilets in two other bathrooms, and other minor repairs.

Provider wasn't interested in negotiating the price. They installed an A/C system in my son's house 2 weeks earlier. Price seemed very reasonable, so I contacted them. They quoted me a much higher price for the same unit, and would not negotiate. My son has the exact style and sq ft house I have, (I told the rep that,) and I live 3 miles closer to the business, so travel couldn't have been the issue. I can't say whether product and service was good or bad. I hired a competitor and paid cash.

The GM came out in a timely manner, however we still have not received a quote. I have made numerous calls. I also received one call last week that explained the initial delay was due a change in promotions and that the quote would be available by Thursday of last week. I followed-up with two additional, and still no quote. We would like a Lennox AC unit, but we may end up with another brand.
Description of Work: No service performed. After the 3/14 appointment, we still do not have a quote.

The old tank hot water heater broke. Got three estimates. Charles Heating and Plumbing was the lowest estimate, but they were honest with the price and what was needed. Took 6 hours to do the work. Paid at the end.
Description of Work: Installed a new hot water tankless heater and upgraded the gas lines to the furnace and the new hot water heater. I had gotten 3 estimates that ranged from 2475.00 to 3495.00 Their price was the best and they did the best job of explaining what they were going to do!.

The sales person was very knowledgeable, personable and informative. He gave us estimates on a few Lennox furnaces at different price points and efficiencies. The installation guys were on time and professional. They thoroughly discarded all debris from the old furnace, humidifier, and air conditioner. Clean, neat and dependable.

We moved in recently and need a furnace inspection. We called and set up an appointment in December because we were told there was a discount. The tech arrived promptly and seemed to know what he was doing. He answered many of my questions and even turned up the fan speed for me. I was very pleased with this experience and am considering getting a contract with the company.

Their prices were too high. They weren't able to fix the furnace; there is a crack in it. They were fast and they got here right away but they were just too pricey and they kept calling for the money. The service was good and they were punctual.

First time servicing - as the new owner Did furnace service - found that the humidifier had never worked even though the previous service company had for years checked it off as working - the technician discovered that the water line tap had never punctured so it never could have worked and there was no sensor on the air duct to measure the humidity levels. The expense thermostat with the touch screen controls and multiple settings was not working and was overkill as the furnace was a simple one stage setup. Overall I am very pleased with Charles Heating. I almost hired the previous owners company who obviously had been ripping them off. Charles Heating was well qualified, knew what they were doing and did it right the first time. Highly recommend

Description of Work: Cleaned all the ducts and cold air returns in the house and cleaned the furnace. They did a fabulous job and what a difference having the duct worked cleaned makes.
