Excellent! Very professional, I was very impressed with how the work was done. The quality, cleanliness, showed up on time. It was probably the best experience I've ever had with a contractor and would definitely recommend them and use their services again.
Description of Work: I originally called to fix some old lights in the kitchen, they could fix one of them but the other was shot. So They fixed the one and I asked for a quote for can light and to fix the other light. I decided to go with can led lights which had to be ordered they were put in a few days later. I had other issues as well. They put in new led light in 2 closets and put a ceiling fan in a guest bedroom.

I called in the early afternoon and left a message about getting my 50 gallon water heater replaced. I received a phone call around 4:30pm and was told they could have a technician at my home within a couple hours! I was not expecting to be able to get a replacement installed so quickly. I was very pleased. The technician, John, was very professional and cleaned everything up so the corner of the garage looked as good as new. He also was very good about showing me how to adjust the two temperature controls on the water heater.

Leroy arrived on time, we got a call from the office when he was on the way, very helpful. He covered his shoes as not to bring any dirt in the house and got straight to work. The change out was made, the arm of the pop-up assembly, he cleaned up and was on his way.
Description of Work: Replaced the lever and stopper on our bathroom sink. We bought the HVAC service contract, the reason for the high cost. Got a discount for being an Angie's List customer and another for the service contract. Very good experience. Leroy did a fine job and did not leave until we were completely satisfied with the work.

Their service and everything about them is impeccable. It was excellent. First they serviced the unit, but because it was 11 or 12 years old I inquired about a new unit so they sent a salesman out. He came out and gave me a price. Then they came back and installed it. I thought the price and work were both good. They did not mess up my unit. I just put new carpet down and I was concerned about them making a mess taking the unit inside upstairs, but they put little footies on. They were excellent. There was nothing I did not like about them. Their price and service was good. Their response time was good and the quality of work was excellent.
Description of Work: I used Carolina Cool to install a 2-1/2 ton new heater and air conditioner.

After several problems with the advanced electronics (as late as January-February 2014, during an ice storm) the system appeared to work well; the semi-annual/spring service was May 2014. On February 16, 2015, since no one had telephoned or written me to schedule a winter service I wrote the company about the status of the bi-annual inspections for my hvac. Two weeks later, on March 2nd, I received a telephone call from a man identifying himself as the General Manager. We spoke of my concerns and he said that he would have all the information we had discussed mailed out to me right away. Two weeks later, on March 16th, having no word from Carolina Cool, I had another local firm do a service inspection on the unit. Wanting to see what had been done by Carolina Cool and what I was now getting from the new company I was with the technician during his entire inspection. He discovered two issues - which were corrected on the spot: one was that the electronics unit for the compressor had never been fully inserted into the compressor casing; the other was that one whole side of coils had never been cleaned. Today, March 19th, I received a ?Complimentary Maintenance Contract from March 2015 through March 2016? in the mail ? nothing else! I do not consider this to be responsive. Nor am I inclined to continue doing business with a firm which has demonstrated such little regard for customer service or communications. Further, the poor installation and servicing of the equipment has led me to post my comments on Angie?s List to give a fair assessment of how Carolina Cool now is operating. ---------------------------------------------13 April 2015---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is an update to my initial ?F? rating of Carolina Cool. On March 23, 2015, I received a telephone call from Kyle, their General Manager, who very professionally explained steps being taken to correct the issues which my feedback identified. These included training for office staff and technicians and a greater emphasis on customer service. In addition he again offered me a year?s (two) free service inspections (the first offer was in writing, which I declined in writing on March 19). I declined the inspections again but was impressed with what he had to say about past problems and ongoing/future plans to correct problems and his desire to make amends; so much so that I agreed to review and revise my rating. Two weeks later (March 6) I received another telephone call from Carolina Cool to schedule my service call/inspection. I returned the call and explained that no service was required as I had another company doing the work. Again, very professionally the person noted that it seemed I was being given a year?s free service, so I explained that I had refused the free service calls. Again, the person handled my response very professionally. Today, April 13, I received a second telephone call from Kyle, inquiring about when I might be doing my revision of their rating on Angie?s List. Though he remained professional I was annoyed and suspect that he was/is being pressured by the owner(s) to get the ?F? removed. I told him I would get to as my time permitted and the call was ended in 79 seconds. These are my comments about Carolina Cool: 1. The three telephone calls to me the past 22 days exceed the number of telephone calls to me as a paying customer without an hvac problem in 2014 by ?3.? 2. Both Kyle and the office person to whom I have spoken could be role models for professional customer service. 3. But the purpose of their calls ? the ?F? rating on Angie?s List and to schedule a service already declined TWICE (once in writing) ? points to a systemic problem in internal communications and coordination within Carolina Cool and my continued sense that customers remain anonymous to their company. 4. While I have no personal animosity toward the owner(s), who apparently have become very successful over the years but somewhere lost their quality control, I would suggest more emphasis on people skills and customer service and less concern about damage control. 5. While I will raise the overall rating to ?C? it is only on the basis of the professionalism of the two persons to whom I have spoken and the time and sincerity Kyle spent speaking with me about planned improvements (some already implemented, obviously). 6. However, I will not being returning to Carolina Cool as my new hvac service company is a local, family-owned business that prides itself on being responsive, customer-service oriented, big enough when I need them and small enough to care about me.
Description of Work: On 7-24-2013 I purchased a new HVAC from Carolina Cool. These comments reflect two issues: the quality of customer service and communications and the quality of the installation/servicing of the new equipment

I called at 4 pm and they were out the next day. Very punctual. Steve Simpson measured the tank and ordered a taller one that would give us more room in the laundry room. Only took him 2 1/2 hours to complete the job. The price was very reasonable. Cleaned up everything. Put shoe protectors on his shoes to protect my floors.
