The company emailed me back promptly and let me know that they do not service my area. I wish they would have indicated that they did not service Port Jervis.

We do not control who the emails go out to. We do have a service area map that shows our boundaries. We apologize for the mix up. I wish we had more control over. Thanks for the review

I knew going into the cooling season that my 15 year old Trane air conditioning system would need to have coolant added, which is expensive. I opted to try D. Rhode's $49.00 tune up offer from Angies. They responded immediately to my email and we set an appointment. It came as no surprise that I did need coolant but I was dismayed to find that mold had formed in the attic unit and that I would need a blue light installed. After a bit of sticker shock I went with their recommendations and they were back as scheduled to install. They cleaned the unit and installed the light which only comes on when the unit is active. I had the best cooling season I have had in 15 years, not once did I have to go into the attic to dry the water sensor off in order to get the unit cooling again. I am very impressed! My old maintenance folks were never able to get me through a season without me making weekly trips to the attic to dry the puck in order to get the cooling going again. I will me using D. Rhode from here on .

The problem was fixed and he then proceeded to very thoroughly inspect all the remaining units. I would gladly use them again and will be referring them.

I love this company. I've used them before and I think they're the best. I want to use them for all my air conditioning/heating needs but it's just too far out of their service area to come to me. I don't know of anyone else I can trust other than D. Rhode Heating and Plumbing. Call them people!! They'll be honest and fair with you.
Description of Work: Bought this service through Angie's list. They checked my central air and told me all was in good working order. Also, they said I would receive a free carbon monoxide detector and true to their word, they brought one.

I almost expect that with these "tune up specials", it gives the heating a/c company a toe in the door. Once in, they want to sell, sell, sell. Don't repair, replace. That's what these specials are about. With the D Rohde $69 special, he addressed my immediate problem and did the tune up. The technician suggested improvements, no scam, no ripoff. It's an honest company, that keeps their appointment, honors their price, and I shall be using them in the future. Very happy with the results of the visit.
Description of Work: I had a slight leakage from my a/c unit in my basement. I also needed a well overdue a/c tune up. D Rohde had a $69 tune up and a great rating so I figured they could address both issues. They diagnosed the leakage as a clogged pvc pipe. Not only did he solve my leakage issue, he still did the $69 tune up. With the tune up the tech mentioned some areas the system could be improved, low pressure selling. He had great suggestions to improve the efficiency of my a/c and heating.

The first plumbing guy installed the new faucet. After he left and I checked it, I noticed the hot water water pressure was very low, and was unacceptable. I called Rhode back and told them this, so a few days later another plumber came out to check it. He too was here for quite a while, and when he was done he said there was "a problem with rubber material from the gasket on the old faucet that had come apart and clogged up the line", and he said the only way it could be rectified was "to do a whole house water system flush", to get the stuff out that was clogging things up.I had never heard of this before and asked how much that would cost, and he said it depended on how long it would take to flush out the stuff that was in there ..."it could be two hours, could take four hours" at a cost of between $200 - $400 dollars. I told him I had to think about that, and then contacted an old friend of mine who sells plumbing supplies in AL, and he said he had never heard of a "whole house flush", had no idea why they would say that, and told me most likely the bits of rubber gasket were lodged somewhere in the faucet handle itself. He walked me through removing it and told me to turn the water on to clear it out ... and sure enough, bits of rubber came out. After doing this a few more times and putting it all back together ... the hot water pressure was just as it should be. I don't know if the Rhode plumber who told me this did not know what he was talking about, or if they were just trying to rip us off. Either way it left a bad taste in my mouth ... and I will never use (or recommend) Rhode again.
Description of Work: First they came to do an A/C tune-up, which was a special Angie's List offer. Since they also did plumbing along with HVAC I then asked them to look at our kitchen faucet (which was leaking constantly) and they determined a new one was needed. So I ordered one from Amazon and scheduled them to return to install it.,

Response from D Rohde Home Services
There are often different ways to treat the same issues. We apologize for the misunderstanding. It appears that our technician did not explain properly what he was looking to do. After we had replaced your faucet, with a faucet that you had purchased on your own, we came back out to take a look at why the hot water was not working properly. We had initially found that there was indeed a rubber gasket that had dislodged from the old valve that we used to turn the water off. After replacing that there was still an issue. What must have happened is that the gasket dislodged from the valve and made its way into the faucet. The technician was concerned that it was still lodged within the valve itself, which would require blowing that pipe out in order to get the piece moved through and out of your pipe. It appears, from what you have written, that the gasket moved on from the valve into the faucet. This would have eventually been found to be the case, however, further diagnostics would have been needed. There was no charge for the initial diagnostic and gasket repair. We take pride in our honesty and would never take money in a situation that may have been misdiagnosed due to a lack of information. It is mentioned in the review that it took some time to take it apart and check where the broken off piece was. This was a part of our diagnostic that we would have done to find where the part was. We knew what the problem was, we just did not know where the gasket ended up. I could understand if we had overcharged or steered the customer in a completely incorrect direction. Our technicians are honest and would never take advantage of a customer. We hope that you were satisfied with the initial installation of the faucet that you had purchased separately. We do our best to give fair pricing for all of our work and do so in a clean manner. We apologize for the miscommunication, as we do understand that there are companies that can be predatory. We feel as though we gave a fair price on the faucet installation. Furthermore, we feel as though it was more than fair to have not charged at all for the diagnostics that occurred after the broken valve was causing issues. We hope to have an opportunity to show our true capabilities of being a clean, prompt, affordable, and professional plumbing and heating company.

I found the response by Rohde to be incredulous. Yes, there were two issues at hand. One the option he didn't give me but he wrote about is, he should have told me that I may be able to get parts for this unit for the unit. What was stated to me is that parts for this unit were not available because he told me that the parts for this unit were unavailable. Low refrigerant does not cost $2500...what was done was over treatment of repair. There was no cost for repair because he told me he couldn't repair only option was to replace. The second issue is also wholly ridiculous because I have three professional degrees and my command and understanding of the technical language is not to be deemed within an excuse of 'misunderstanding. I found this humorous since I can electrical wire a house and install a security system so the notion that I don't things 'electrical' is absurd. Additionally, I met their representative on site. Telephone conversations occurred before we met at the house. The only thing that was transacted was an over charge of $2306.05...and on top of that he wanted to charge me the same amount for the second unit.
Description of Work: We contacted Rohde to fix our two outside HVAC units (Tempstar) and was told one, that the unit was old and no parts were available. Funny that the house was built in 2005 and they couldn't get parts. Two, that the entire electrical unit (circuit board) was blown. It was true that mice had eaten through the wire and may have caused the damage. I didn't have them do both units but had Cleveland Plumbing and Heating come and look at the other unit. They repaired it for a total, get this, $193.95. I would never use these guys....

Response from D Rohde Home Services
Unfortunately there were two separate issues with each unit. There are times when some service providers have access to repair parts that others do not. I am not sure if that is the situation here, however I will state that there were options given with regard to the condensing units. We had mentioned that there were multiple issues with the unit that we changed out, including low refrigerant. The cost to repair and the cost to replace were close to one another and the choice, made by the homeowner was ultimately to replace the unit. There can be times in which there is a misunderstanding between the technician and the homeowner. Sometimes our technical jargon can be misunderstood and can appear to be leading in a certain direction. I apologize if that was the case. We take pride in informing our customers as fully as possible in order to give them all of the tools to make an informed decision. To compound that communication issue, this job was done exclusively over the phone via a long distance. This can add to confusion and things can get lost in translation. Again, we apologize if we were not more fully informative about the situation, although we stand by our efforts to give you an informed opportunity to choose to repair or replace the unit. It may be a bit unfair to compare two different units with two different issues with one another. I am happy you were able to find a company to repair the other issue for you in a timely manner for a respectable price.

I used an Angie's List coupon to pre pay for an A/C tune up ($50). Our unit had not been checked for a couple of years. The technician cleaned it out and tested various components. A few days later, the A/C unit stopped blowing cold air so I called back and within a day, the same technician returned to replace a blown capacitor ($160 + tax). He explained to me how the unit worked and what the capacitor does and he had the unit running within 30 minutes. The timing of the blown capacitor was horrible coming so soon after maintenance was performed, but that's life.

At first he thought the compressor needed to be replaced and promised to get me a quote ASAP. He sent me an email the next day but didn't follow up next week for an appointment. I called them and another guy came out who had discussed my AC problem with the previous guy and tried installing a "hard start" - which ended up working and solved the problem without having to replace the compressor (which is a lot more expensive).
Description of Work: I just moved into my new house and the AC wasn't working. Daniel came within the hour, spent around 3 hours diagnosing the problem and fixing a pipe in the basement that collects the condensation.
