From my first phone call with Kristen- to my visit and installation with Jose, I simply can not say enough about my experience. Professional, courteous, and prompt are just some words I would use to describe Hartford Services. As a homeowner with anxiety over the purchase of a new AC for my home, Jose walked me through each step and made the system and process easy to understand. I was particularly impressed with the proactive follow up of the company after the installation. A very uncommon and high level of customer service. I am extremely pleased!

Hartford charges $189 to come out and diagnose a problem. Ours was a tankless hot water heater problem. They came out, 4 times and never correctly diagnose the problem. Their plumber was nice, but unqualified. The dispatcher Laura, was incredibly rude. She insisted that each time the technician came out and did NOT fix or diagnose the problem that we would be charged 189 dollars. After paying 189 dollars 3 times, the 4th time I discussed with Laura that I would pay for it IF he diagnosed a problem that we could actually do something about and try to take up with the manufacturer regarding our warranty. Hartford's tech never could identify the problem, only tried to sell me a water softener that he would install for around 3K, and could never trouble shoot the problem beyond reading display code on the machine that wasn't changing because he didn't know how to reset the machine. After the 4th attempt, I called the manufacturers (Rinnai). They sent another company to come out, and the even agreed to pay for it, (mostly because I stated my displeasure with how Hartford was listed as certified to fix these heaters and couldn't do it.) Rinnai called Hartford to see if the tech had reset the heater. Hartford's tech lied to Rinnai and told them that he had reset it. When the new company came out he reset it, and this is when we discovered it had not been reset. Resetting it involves pressing 2 buttons for a few seconds. Because he reset it he was able to identify that there was a problem with one of the units' parts. Rinnai overnighted the parts that were covered under warranty, and they installed it the next day. It took this new company 2 days to fix what Hartford could not fix in 4 visits over 6 months. I really wish I had not called Hartford. Now, they have sent me to collections. I am receiving harassing phone calls and letter in the mail because, even after paying $567 for them to not fix a problem that was very easy for someone else to come fix, they insist that I pay for the 4th trip-- even though Laura had agreed verbally that I should only pay for it only if a diagnosis was made, and even though her tech on that visit made an incorrect assertion that my water needed softening, and suggested he install a $3,000 water softening machine. This was beyond frustrating for me, and frustrating that I found this company on Angie's list.

Just to throw it out there, I would have liked the problem I had to be fixed with fewer visits. That being said I am happy with the results and feel I got a fair price. Visit 1 - The repair man came to my house and went up to the attic but the unit was frozen over. He turned it off, and told me he would come back the next day to check it. Visit 2 - A different guy came by to visit (Manny), and told me refrigerant was leaking out of the copper line running from outside the house to the unit in my attic. He told me to fix the problem they would need to cut out the copper line, and by doing so rip out the drywall where it runs up the side of the house (meaning 1st, 2nd, and 3rd floors), and replace the entire line. He didn't have time to do that, so he filled me up with a couple pounds of refrigerant and said he would be back in a couple of weeks to check on it. He quoted me 1600 bucks for this work, and assured me they wouldn't be able to just cut out the leaky section of the pipe...the entire pipe needed to be replaced. Visit 3 - Didn't happen. I waited at home for an appointment at 8AM, and at 9 I received a call from Hartford letting me know they wouldn't be able to make it that day. I'm familiar with the details, but for the sake of this posting I won't share. The family that runs Hartford had some personal issues which were understandable and out of their control. I wouldn't have made this appointment if I had been in their shoes. After a month + of waiting for a call / reschedule I called back. They had forgotten about me, but were able to get me scheduled for the following Saturday. Visit 4 - I got a call from them Saturday AM telling me they weren't going to be able to come out and do the repairs. I was not a happy camper as I already had a drywall contractor lined up to repair the mess Hartford was going to make by cutting out multiple sections of drywall in my home. Mitch called me and I explained my frustration...he came out personally to see the situation and assess it himself. He told me they would be able to cut out a small section of drywall in my garage, and replace the leaky line for 600 bucks. We got the next appointment scheduled on the spot. Visit 5 - Manny came back and fixed the leaky section of the line and my AC has been working for several months. As you can see...it was frustrating having so many visits / planned visits. Not only that but between Manny and Mitch I received conflicting advice on how to fix the problem...but in the end Mitch's advice saved me 1000 bucks. I only wanted the fit for purpose solution...and would recommend having Mitch come out to take a look at any major project before giving them the OK to proceed. I know I would trust Mitch in the future to let me know just what the minimum is I need to meet my objective.
Description of Work: My AC was running, but was not producing any cold air. They made multiple visits, and were able to fix the problem perminantly.

My a/c stopped working late on a Friday. I called Hartford Service for assistance. I asked that someone be sent out immediately, but they did not want to come out and asked if they could come on Saturday instead. I agreed. He told me he would call back at 9am Saturday morning to schedule an appointment for Saturday. At 9:30, I still had not received a call, so I called them back. The person who answered the phone told me there was no record of my call from the night before, there was no one that could be sent to my house that day, and she would pass the information to a manager to call me back, but had no idea when the manager would call. He finally did call after 10am. Instead of apologizing for not calling first thing in the morning, his attitude was more like he was surprised that the a/c still needed to be serviced. I am very disappointed in Hartford. I have used them in the past to service my a/c, and they provided good customer service. Now, I feel they do not value me as a client.
Description of Work: Provided lousy customer service.

All info is stated concisely in the paragraph above.
Description of Work: I had three companies come out to place bids to replace a 25 year old air conditioner. Jamie of Hartford Services was the first person that came to my house. He spent three hours diligently explaining all the ins and outs of new units. No salesman has ever outlined the pros and cons of their equipment so thoroughly. At first, the price he gave me appeared to be the best bid by a thousand dollars. But on closer inspection, he had me sign off on a 10 year warranty that none of the other companies offered because that would have cost $800 -$900 more. I may be wrong, but it felt a bit deceptive to me. That is why I went with another company.

I was pleased that he called right back and was very professional. He quoted his weekend price and his weekday service call price and offered me advice to get us through a very hot weekend without our A/C. I told him I'd call him back for a second opinion in the event that it does not work out with the warranty company.
Description of Work: I called to check on a weekend service call for an HVAC unit that stopped working. Answering service called right back within 45 mins and gave me advice as to see what the warranty company could do first and if not, he would be happy to assit us.

Service technician called first to advise me of Sunday service charge and if cost was acceptable. I agreed and had technician come late Sunday afternoon. The technician troubled shot my system and determined where problem was and provided estimate to fix. The type replacement compressor needed for my A/C unit was not carried on his truck or available at Hartford warehouse. Technician stated he would obtain the correct compressor first thing in morning. At 10:am the next morning a crew of four people from Hartford arrived at my home and repaired my system in one hour at agreed price.

Sharon is the office manager - She knows my voice when I call. They're family owned & a very Christian company. You can leave any employee at your home alone - They're so trustworthy. They came out & gave me a quote for this recent service, & charged a $59 inspection fee which would be applied to the price of the service. In January of 2010, a pipe froze & broke. They fixed it & did a great job. They're really good a pin-pointing the source of any leak. If I ever have any emergency they send someone right out for the small charge of $59.00. They even send out thank you notes & a magnet to customers who have work completed! They're not the cheapest, but their service & honesty is worth it. They are absolutely perfect!

Excellent work done exactly when they said it would be done. The plumber came to our house on Friday, 1/27 to look at the job and provide us with an estimate. We already had the hardware and the plumber confirmed we had purchased superior products (as opposed to trying to get us to buy something different, as another company had done). He provided a written estimate. The estimate was a little higher that another but we really liked his professional attitude and the fact that he inspected in detail the existing hardware to make sure what we had bought would fit. We scheduled an appointment for the following Tuesday and requested that the same plumber perform the work. He arrived bright and early Tuesday morning (exactly when he was supposed to) and told us he would probably be all day and asked permission if it would be alright for him to break for lunch (of course, we said yes). As it turned out, because he had to cut a hole in the wall in our closet to access the shower hardware, he was not able to finish that day and had to come back. He showed up the next morning and completed the job. Everything was tested and found in perfect working order (a little adjustment was needed to get the sink stoppers at the right height). We never would have called Hartford Services in the first place if it wasn't for the Angie's List rating. Boy, are we glad we did. By the way, the individual plumber's name was "Polo" and we will ask for him by name next time.
Description of Work: Replaced 4 bathroom fixtures (2 sink faucets, 1 roman tub faucet, 1 shower control and spray head).

I liked them quite a lot. I also got a quote from them. I had another service provider come by to see if there was a problem with my air conditioning unit. They said that the sytem was working properly but it was undersized and they recommended some upgrades. So, I had Hartford Services come out to verify the diagnosis and also to provide a second quote. They were very courteous. They were clean and they did not leave a mess. I would tell my friends and family members that their service comes with a sliding window and that you should make sure that you have a two hours window to be available as what they usually give is an affirmative. We are absolutely going to use them.
