The Vicmir team are wonderful workers: quick, efficient, respectful of your home, and professional to deal with. They left our basement looking 100% cleaner and neater than when they came in. Their work is impeccable, and top-notch. We feel we got an extreme value for our money and are very happy with the new heating system and hot water heater. We would certainly call them again and we wholeheartedly recommend their services.
Description of Work: We initially called Vicmir to inquire about central air-conditioning for our home during the heat spell last summer. It would have to be an emergency job, since we had family visiting, and we were very happy with the willingness Vic (one of the sons) showed in working with us with such a short time frame. When he came to the house we were further impressed with Vic's knowledgeability, frankness and professionalism. In fact, we were so impressed that we decided to have him install a completely new heating system and hot water heating system!

Vic and his sons were extremely professional and did a fantastic job installing my new furnace and hot water tank. Their price was extremely competitive and they were able to perform the install the week after I was quoted. The quality of their work was exceptional and I would highly recommend them to anyone. They will be my go to for all future HVAC needs.

We bought an Angie's List Big Deal for a boiler inspection and cleaning. We were able to easily schedule an appointment, the technician arrived on time, and the work was done quickly and professionally. The boiler checked out fine and they provided us with a print-out of the performance data from the boiler check. Start to finish the whole thing took about an hour.

We hadn't had our boiler checked out in a long time and the cold hit suddenly this year, but they were able to get us an appointment within 2 days with no fuss. The service provider who came to our house was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and quick, and we had heat within an hour. He even managed to decrease the knocking noise in our radiators. Very happy with the result, and would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Victor Sr and his sons Vic Jr and Matt were great. They were meticulous in their work, always ensured they cleaned up every day (the job took four days). They started the job when they said they would and stayed thought the 4 days it took to complete the work
Description of Work: Vicmir removed a heating system that was approximately 40 years old and installed a Buderus high efficiency boiler and an indirect hot water tank. Additionally they installed hot water baseboard to a second floor addition that was previously heated by electric heat. Getting the heat to the second floor was a challenge since access to run pipes up to the second floor was limited.

I was very happy w ith his work, the price and his prompt attention to my problem. I will keep his name for any other problems with my heating and AC.I would recommend this company to anyone looking for the same type of work.
Description of Work: I had an issue with my AC and had someone to look at this who could not correct the issue. I called Vicmir who came over to review the system that day and found the issue. He explained the problems, showing me the parts and then returned the next day to correct the issue. He also checked out the entire system and ensured the system worked correctly.

The work was good. This is why I would recommend them in the future. My advice would be to make sure you see all of the required permits (if you want them) before they start working. Also, everyone needs to be aware that they use York units. These units have to be serviced by them after a year or the AC unit's warranty is void. I wasn't told this until after the unit was installed.
Description of Work: I had Central AC added to my 2 story colonial home. I chose Vicmir because the son was the most honest of all of those that I got a quote from. It has taken me awhile to write a review because I'm extremely busy and because I have been waiting for this company to resolve an issue which is still unresolved. This company does do good work. The AC works very well and I have not had any issues with. On the other hand, they are not very punctual as it took four days to even get a quote from them. I am going to be selling my home and therefore needed the AC to be done under a permit. They got a permit for the AC but not for the electrical, therefore the work did not pass the inspection by the town. I tried unsuccessully on several occassions to get them to get the proper electrical permit. To date, they have still not done this. I expect this outstanding permit to be an issue as I will be putting my home up for sale in a few months. As soon as I get the time, I'll look into alternative ways to get this issue resolved.

Had a heating issue (frozen pipe) that was allowing only half of the heating system to work. They confirmed the problem and told me how to fix it myself. He only wanted to charge me for gas to get to the service call. It was a chance to charge me a lot of money and they didn't. So I had them complete a boiler service since he was here. Excellent freindly FAIR service

I would be happy to recommend VicMir to anyone who is doing a gas conversion. These guys were fantastic. They provided options and recommendations and had patience to go through all the details. They told us what they were going to do. They communicated very well and I was never "in the dark" of what was going on. They set clear expectations. Then they delivered on everything that they said they were going to do. They were clean and punctual. They were respectful and sensitive to the needs of the homeowner. They were efficient and did a fantastic job. This is hard to find in today's marketplace. This is a family run business with family employees. I made a decision on them based on the Angies list ratings and found it to be 100% accurate. They were not the low bidder on this piece of work, but had the best reputation. Ultimately that is more important to me. I want to know that they will be there and not just sub work out like other contractors. They have already demonstrated to me that they stand by their work. Again - I was very pleased and would be happy to recommend them to anyone.

I took advantage of my Angie's List coupon offer for a complete heating system assessment and cleaning. Naturally, I'm happy to learn my system is running fine and efficiently. From making the appointment to showing up on time, to cleaning up afterward, this company was responsive, thorough and pleasant to deal with. I'd recommend VicMir without hesitation.
Description of Work: The service man, Matt, arrived on time and promptly went to work checking everything with regards to my heating system. He took apart connections, cleaned out water lines in and out of my by boiler, checked the efficiency of my old gas operated steam heat system. Naturally, I'm happy to learn my system is running fine and efficiently. My wife and I now face the cold winter months feeling very reassured that our heating system is OK.

I've used VicMir before for heating. They converted my oil system to gas and upgraded our hot water heater to an efficient indirect system. They did an outstanding job. I wish I had "before and after" photos. My old AC system was a disaster, and was installed two owners before us in the 70's, and I don't think it ever worked. Vic and his guys redesigned and installed a whole new, very efficient system and removed all the old ductwork, gaining us probably another 300 sq. ft. of storage space in our attic! Vic Sr. and jr. are true professionals, and everybody they send over are equally professional. VicMir is a great family run business that treats their customers right. Any time we've had an issue with anything in the HVAC realm, they come over right away and address it. Since we've upgraded all our systems with VicMir, we are saving $250-$300 per month in energy costs. Needless to say we are very satisfied with this company.

I called this man for a quote and he came by the house to check things out. Told me something different than another repair man said and told me it would be $350 to fix. I told him I needed to call him back to set it up (as I wanted another opinion) and he started yelling at me and telling him I was "dicking him around." I told him I honestly just wanted a 2nd opinion and if it matched I'd call him back for the service and he started yelling more at me so I hung up. He might have known what he was doing but he also said it wouldn't work with a certain part when it worked fine all last year. I don't trust him. Nor did I want to be yelled at. Don't call this man.

Response from Vicmir & Sons Inc
This is what I get for being honest? This guy calls and asks me for an estimate for a new outdoor condensing unit. Not a small piece of change. He can't meet me at his house. So I tell him I'll just stop by to check the size of the unit in order to give him a price. When I arrive it's obvious that someone was working on the unit. I check what was done and decide I need to confirm the unit needs replacement. It did not need to be replaced I actually had it running. So I call the member to tell him he doesn't need to replace the unit and he tells me I'm wrong. I've got the unit running mind you. So I try to convince him that who ever worked on it prior to me didn't know what they were doing and put the wrong size capacitor which starts the compressor. They also shorted the unit wiring and blew a big hole through the wall of the electrical compartment. He says that he did all that with a friend. I told him I would fix it and warranty the repair for $387 and asked do you want me to fix it. He said, "I don't have $387. My mind is working pretty fast at this point. I'm thinking why did you have me over here to quote a $1500-$1800 replacement when you can't afford a $387 repair. So I told him I didn't appreciate him wasting my time. I didn't use that term he quoted me as saying even though it seems appropriate. I would take his advice on these 2 points Don't call this man, if you want an honest opinion and don't call this man if you intend to waste his time!

My furnace wouldn't start up completely when instructed to by a thermostat. I thought it was an ignition problem, but Vic diagnosed the problem to be a secondary fan which had become warped and couldn't get up to speed. Vic didn't have a replacement part on hand, but he made a temporary repair and then came back the next day with the replacement part. The price was reasonable. When Vic first arrived to diagnose the problem, my power had gone out for unknown reasons. I was impressed that Vic was willing to try and diagnose the problem without power and willing to wait for it to come back on (which it did, about 15 minutes later).
Description of Work: My furnace stopped working one morning. Vic diagnosed the problem, found a replacement part, installed it, and checked that the furnace was in proper working order.

A few years ago, Vic replaced my heating system. At the time, I didn't know anything about heating systems and had several vendors provide estimates. I chose Vic and Sons because they offered several options, patiently answered any and all questions. Most importantly, they gave me the sense they stood by their work and would take care of me as a long term customer. I've been very satisfied with my furnace, and have it maintained by Vic annually. They even know me when I call! I would highly recommend this company.
