Lever Repairs

How often can you say that your service experience with an HVAC vendor was amazing AND saved you $15,000? Before our service with "Heath" of Lever Repairs, we didn't know that it was possible to be dazzled by a HVAC service call. But Lead Technician Heath changed that for us. We had been using the same local company to service our HVAC that had installed our ductwork 7 years ago. They came every 6 months, charged us $150 to change our filter and provide a visual inspection of our unit - all of which took less than 30 minutes per visit. In September, two days after our 2020 Fall service, our HVAC stopped working properly. It would run and run and not turn off. When I called to ask them to come back to resolve the issue, they told me they couldn't fit us in for 2 months, and that I would need a replacement unit that would cost between $10,000-$15,000. Then I checked Angie's List, read the reviews for Lever Repairs, and made an appointment. When Heath showed up, I told him the symptoms, and he immediately diagnosed the problem as a bad contactor that was not passing power. He had the replacement part on the van, installed it in less than 5 minutes, and then proceeded to clean my HVAC unit for the next 45 minutes using a variety of tools and cleansers and equipment. The debris and dirt that flowed from the unit was reflective of 7 years of neglect. Not once in the 7 years of service we had paid for had our previous contractor removed the lid, vacuumed the inside of the unit, and cleaned it until all the water ran clear. In fact, our former contractor never performed any of the services Heath provided. Heath used Bluetooth tools to track the before and after performance of my HVAC unit, and our 4 Ton unit was only operating at 50% capacity before the service from Lever Repairs. When he left, it was working at almost 100%. And no replacement unit was required. This exemplary technician sets the standard for competence, skill, service, and professionalism. I have already signed a maintenance contract and will be a loyal Lever Repair customer for life.

They are excellent and I would highly recommend them.

They are excellent and very quick to come out when we have needed them. They are a great family owned business and we would highly recommend them. We will continue to use them.

They keep it running and they are great!

Very Well. Mr Lever discussed our options with us. He explained if we put anymore money into repairing our old unit we would be spending more money than was wise in trying to keep the system alive. During the repairs we became familiar with Ed Lever's employee Henry who demonstrated the same professionalism and values as Mr. Lever. His installation team Robert, Mario and Chase were awesome. Prompt, neat, & very complete. We hardly knew they were in the house. They worked quietly and quickly. All business. Mr Lever went over every single detail, making sure our every initial item had been taken care of when the job was complete. It has been a week now with our new heat and we could not be more pleased. For the first time ever we are not pouring money into the coffers of the power company.

Ed Lever was recommended by an electrician friend who said that and quot;Ed Lever is the best in the businessand quot; We have to say that we see why he said that. Last winter Mr Lever repaired the blower on our heater. This year the aging unit again refused to start. Mr Lever and his technician came over within the time frame promised. Mr Lever determined the burners and blower were bad in addition to a wire failing. At the time of the visit he was not certain that the blowers were available and discussed replacing the unit. He was able to find the burners and told us the cost for each as well as an estimate for labor. He offered a blower from his workshop that would be serviceable in our unit. Mr Lever promised that he would be out Monday after ordering the burners on Friday. He came out Monday afternoon and repaired the unit all for less than the original estimate. He saved us from having to install a new unit at a time when it is difficult for us financially. What we love about Ed Lever/Lever Repairs is the fact that he is very knowledgeable, pragmatic and has extremely fair pricing. We will call upon him when it comes time to replace our unit but in the meanwhile we are so grateful that he saved us from a major expense right now.

They are just very timely. The crew was clean. They knew what they were doing. They got the whole thing done in about two and a half days. I would use them again.

I was alerted by another HVAC company that I had a leak in my heat exchanger. After getting a second opinion, it was confirmed that carbon monoxide was indeed seeping into my house. Zooming forward, after researching on Angie's List, I came up with a list of over 6 companies, because replacing a split system with a gas packaged unit and the ductwork was going to be expensive. By the 3rd company, I was well aware of how everything worked and how to look for a company that knew what they were doing. Long story, short Lever Repairs was recommended to me by a neighbor and they were a smaller company. I actually hesitated to call them, but decided to call them at the last minute. And I'm glad I did and here's why. Will from Lever Repairs impressed me with his patience when he first came out. Unlike some of the other companies, he actually went into my crawl space - analyzed my situation and then gave me a solution. He was very patient in answering my list over over 20 plus questions and showed me how everything worked, from their ductwork, etc. All the other companies wanted $10-13K to do this, so I was expecting around the $9-10 range. But Will quoted me with a 10 year parts and labor warranty, all new ductwork, plus a gas packaged unit, and new vent around $6700. I also got the 10% off the system upgrade as well, so I saved a lot. At that moment, I knew these were the guys. I saw good reviews on Angie's List, everything added up, and not the cheapest, but the most thorough and second to the cheapest. They were willing to come the following Monday, where they removed all the ductwork, and the old unit. They worked diligently and worked very hard and by Wednesday, I had air condition. It was amazing. About a month later as I write this, I am thoroughly impressed. Also a lot of companies were charging me for stuffed Lever Repairs was doing for free or at a lower cost. These guys answered my questions, and were very helpful. My electric bill was $200 previously and with only two weeks of use, it was down to $130. I'm expecting around $100 or less on this upcoming bill. And it used to take an hour to get the house cool or warm. Now it takes literally 15 minutes to go from 77 to 73, which is crazy. They went above and beyond and I'll be having them come back. Ed Lever and his two workers Will and a younger fellow, forgot his name, were awesome.

We bought an old house with 3 different AC units. One unit was completely broken, another was on its last leg, and the third was working, but not well. We knew this before we bought the house, and figured we would need to spend about $20,000 - $25,000 to get all three units replaced. We had inspectors and contractors confirm our assumptions. We were recommended to Ed Lever. Knowing how busy we were with three kids, and both of us working, he took the time to work around our schedule. He took his time to really inspect the units, and determine mid-term to long-term plan for us. He then thoroughly explained all the options. Unlike other contractors, he was very concious of our budget, and figured out ways to do the repairs under budget without sacrificing quality. He replaced two of our units. Both passed inspection. He was able to fix the third unit for a fraction of the cost.

Perfect.

We had to replace three heat pumps. Two in our home and one in my daughter's house. We recieved three quotes. One from a company we had a service contract with and another that had originally put in the units. Lever gave us the best price but also gave us the most information and examined ther unit completely before giving us the cost. It was apparent we were dealing with an honest man with a good work ethic,

I was referred to Lever through a friend. They were responsive and priced fairly. They are honest. I like them very much.
