Description of Work: Smoak's Comfort Control sent a representative to my home who, ultimately, did incorrect work on my kitchen plumbing. He additionally gave me incorrect information regarding the work he had done. When I contacted Smoak's about what had happened, they were wonderful about the way that handled it. PLEASE NOTE, that it was their representative that messed up-NOT the company as a whole. I don't believe the rep they sent to my house is working for Smoak any longer. Mr. Smoak himself offered to come out and correct the work their rep had done. Mr. Smoak and Janet, another rep for the company, couldn't have been more caring and empathetic about the situation. I believe they did everything they possibly could to correct it. However, I declined any further help from them as I decided to contact another plumber.

Description of Work: We have used Smoak's in the past and have always had great experiences, but doing our due diligence, sought several bids both price and scope of work to replace the flex duct under our home. We found Smoak's to be the most complete. Everything from the estimated time to do the job, punctuality, cleanliness of yard, professionalism of all staff was excellent. We have no reservations in recommending them for anything that you may need regarding your HVAC systems.

We have a service contract to keep up maintenance with Smoaks that we started 2 years ago. They are always on time and very thorough, explaining in written and verbal detail what services they performed on each visit and what their findings were. They have yet to suggest any repairs though our unit is already 7 years old. Since the contract we have not had to have any repairs though if they suggest them I will be sure that they are being honest with us. They missed a visit and upon our realizing this we found that we had changed both of our contact numbers with them and had not updated this info so the fault was really on our end. When I did inform them we only had a Saturday opening and though they do not perform maintenance contract services on the weekends they still came out and did the work. All in all these folks do a wonderful job.

Great company and very, very efficient in their work! Not only did they come out and look at my complete heating and cooling system in my home - they actually measured my square footage of my home, measured my windows and counted all the vents in my home, so they could get the exact calculations of my homes heating and cooling needs. After his calculations, he concluded I needed a 2.5 ton A/C unit and 85% gas furnance. He initially gave me a quote I was "shocked" over, but I then explained to him that this home was not the home I was going to be living in for the rest of my life (We're Military and will only live in the house for 3 years), and that amount of money would be impossible to recover in 3 years. He really tried to work with me and look for alternative units that not only would be less on our pockets, but still qualify for the government tax rebate. After looking over his book, he came up with a bid that was some $2,500 dollars less then the initial bid. Unfortunately, they don't do attic insulation, so that wasn't included in the estimate. I would have went with them, just because of their efficiency, but as I said before - this home is temporary and I'm trying to recover some of the cost over a 3 year period, so I'm forced to go with a lower bid. I would recommend this company!

Came out within 1 hour of the call. After thorough check of the system, Pat completey explained the problem, and had the new part installed before noon the following day. There was no push to replace the system, nothing pushy about any of the process (very nice as opposed to other companies). We have an existing service contract with Smoak's and will definitely use them when it's time to replace the system.
Description of Work: System was not cooling. Had to replace a sensor on AC unit.

We have a maintenance contract with them and they come out automatically. They call us to tell us that it's time to schedule. They are always here on time. Their price went up, as they are doing the general maintenance 3 times a year and they used to do it twice a year before. You also get discount for repairs when you are on a contract. There are no extra charges on holidays and weekends, as we have a contract with them. My overall experience with them has been good. When we bought the unit, I felt that the price that they charged was same as others that we had looked at. I haven't compared their prices with other companies. I shall continue to use their services in the future as well.
Description of Work: We have been using the services of Smoak's Comfort Control for our heating and air conditioning system maintenance for many years now. Their last visit to our house was in the last month for general maintenance.

It was a good experience. Now we will have all the air and heat going into the rooms instead of between the floors.
Description of Work: We had some work done in September 2008 to see if we had a leak. We didn't but found out that the ducts were not connected and one was torn. The condensation was dripping and caused a spot on our kitchen ceiling. We received a free estimate and then scheduled the work to be done. They were very efficient and cleaned up everything. We have been happy with their work. They replaced the duct work in our condo.

This turned out to be better than I thought. Although we have to put up a new ceiling in the kitchen, at least we will have the ductwork done and we will put in new kitchen cupboards also. Now everything will be brand new.
Description of Work: We thought we had a leak, the worker checked everything from the sinks, toilet,bathtub and attic. It turned out to be in the ductwork. We had to have a hole cut out in our ceiling in the kitchen to see where the moisture was coming from. He was very neat and cleaned up everything. We will come back to Charleston in a few weeks to have the repair done to the ductwork above the kitchen ceiling.
