Everything went extremely well.
Description of Work: We already had a contract with Carolina Cool Inc. to maintain our heating and cooling systems and were very happy with their work. When our water bill kept getting higher and the Water Department said that water was running continuously and that we should find a plumber to check our property for a leak, I consulted Angie's list for a reputable plumber. Carolina Cool Inc. was one of the top plumbers listed and since we already knew their work ethic, we knew we had the right plumbing contractor. We contacted Carolina Cool Inc. on a Monday and Tuesday they came to the house, found and fixed the broken main water line. The work performed was excellent, the man who did the work was professional and very efficient and the cost of service was very fair. To say that I was extremely pleased would be an understatement. We have additional items which need to be addressed and Carolina Cool Inc. will definitely get the call.

They are amazing. The house that we bought has a lot of windows in it so each room was a completely different temperature; one side of the house wasn’t being cooled at all. They came in and did something completely different than anyone else. They balanced the system and now it is cool in summer and warm in the winter. It is perfect. They did what they said, they called to let us know when they were coming, they checked on it afterwards to make sure it was okay, and they were just right there every minute. They put something in the duct work that directs how much air goes to certain rooms. They also put in some more ducts and added an air return.

They are very professional. They do thorough work. They are inexpensive. They do quality work. They have an annual plan you can sign up for preventive measures; it makes all the sense in the world with their heating and cooling. I would recommend their annual maintenance plan. My overall experience with them was excellent. It is great. Everything about them is the best. Their price is excellent. I checked with other plumbing companies for pricing, and they were least expensive and the most professional. I would use them in the future.
Description of Work: I used Carolina Cool Inc for heating and A/C about three weeks or a month ago. I pay $140 for cooling and another $140 for plumbing. They come out twice a year; clean all my house drains, do all the plumbing needed, and check and make sure everything is working properly. They come two or three times in a year and go through the water heater, go through the whole heating system and do all the maintenance work in the house.

The call desk was very customer service oriented on initial contact. The service person was dispatched at the time of my choosing - that day. The serviceman himself was very knowledgeable, and informative, answering all my questions and providing me with very helpful information. All work was completed in a quick and efficient manner and I felt all charges were very reasonable.

Response from Carolina Cool LLC
What a ridiculous report. First off, we didn’t quote $750, we quoted $650. Secondly, we didn’t do ANY work at his home. This person had dogs in the house that had chewed up the bathroom, and had urinated all over, including the ductwork. We gave a price comparable with the work that was required to clean it up. Finally, I called the other company. They didn’t do a duct cleaning either! They simply explained to him what he could do for himself, which was to spray some Lysol. This place was a total mess. Always make sure the company you have doing any kind of work in South Carolina is properly licensed. To do duct cleaning you must have a mechanical license. Check for your self at http://verify.llronline.com/LicLookup/LookupMain.aspx. Scroll down to contractors. My company gets an F by this guy who didn’t even use our services. Very unfair and shortsighted of him. When in doubt, check with BBB also.

The heat pump continually runs causing a high electric bill. We just moved into this house in October. We called a heating and air guy out, he checked the system and could not find anything wrong. The next day, a plumber from Carolina Cool was at our next door neighbors house. My wife went out and talked to him, he said there was possibly one of three things wrong. He convinced my wife to call for a service appointment. When the Carolina Cool service tech diagnosed the system he found the thermostat was faulty. He replaced it and the heat seems to be doing much better now.
Description of Work: Faulty thermostat.

They seem to do the work well. They were here when they said they would be here. They seem to work efficiently. They answered my questions intelligently and when I indicated I had a problem they analyzed the problem for me and let me know what would be required to fix it. I thought they were very decent people to work with. I had two technicians and spent a total of 2-3 man hours here. I expect them to come back in 6 months to do the same thing. They replaced all the batteries in the smoke alarms, a part in the toilets and it's all a part of the service.
Description of Work: Carolina Cool did preventative maintenance type of work for our heating system, plumbing and checked everything over. We have an annual heating contract so they come in twice a year for heating, plumbing and electrical needs.

The hot water heater in my home was still under warranty. The parts he replaced were covered. I paid him for a Saturday call and labor charges, which I did not feel were unreasonable. When you've been without hot water for two days, a person is just glad to have hot water again. I went online looking for who repairs my particular hot water heater and found Carolina Cool. I was very pleased and would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: My water heater had basically died, as I had no hot water. Within 45 minutes of calling them, someone was out and repaired it. He was very skilled and knew what needed to be repaired and within 1 hour of his fixing it and leaving, I had hot water again.

Sales person comes to house it's almost like a car salesman in your home. I'm sure they driven by sales commission.
Description of Work: Expanded oening for air exchange,cleaned and taped existing ductwork.Had major problem with dust in house. Unit is a 10 yr old heat pump,10cer. Unit still works will need to change in the future. They want to replace the entire system. or no guarantee. Problem just as bad with dust and no change in operation of unit. They were the most expensive of three quotes to replace the entire system.. Two of the other quotes are in your list, also rated C. Do, shop around more. I will get price from your A rated listings. Don't just call the big boys.

While they may be voted "Best in the Beach" for several years, you need to be very careful. I have been using them for 3 years and while they started out doing a great job the last years, their service is falling way down. When you have your plumbing inspected, they send service individuals out who seem to want to talk more than they want to work. The plumbing department always wants to sell you something. For instance, I moved into a new home that was under the builder's warranty. The first inspection they told me that I need to replace all lines under all the sinks, when I asked why they told me that it would not last and would break and cause a leak. Did not have it done and have never had a problem. You may ask why I continued to use them, but each season they swore it was just a fluke. Since I never had problems and did get a service individual that was great, he left the company and it went downhill after that. The last time I had my A/C and Heating inspected, they sent a service individual out who could not even understand the thermostat. Yes, that is correct. I mentioned to him that I found it hard to believe that he was going to service my system when he did not even know how to turn it on and off. Remember Carolina Cooling installed the programmable controls, which clearly has their name on it, yet the tech did not know how to operate it. Makes you wonder what they were going to do once they went into the attic to check the air exchange. Being a single woman, I relied on them so that I would not have problems in the future. Be very careful about what they put in writing in their service agreement as they will change what the agreement covers when you are in the middle of a contract.
Description of Work: They were contracted by me for yearly cooling and heating maintenance for a year. They were to inspect the system in Spring and Fall, service and maintain for the upcoming season. Be very careful when you go under a contract with them.
