Technician was on time, highly curteous, and install the new heater properly. Passed city inspection. Company was flexible and allow me to schedule two trips, one for removing the old water heater and the next for installing the new one. This allowed me to paint the floor

We were scheduled to have a tech come out to give us a quote on a new A/C unit between 4 pm and 8 pm, and the appointment was confirmed. He never showed up. When we called the office, they said he "had already gone home" by the time they got the assignment to him. But they never called us to tell us that - we were sitting in a vacant home for 4 hours for someone who never was going to come, and they didn't tell us. Absolutely horrible service.

In a word. TERRIBLE! OK, I knew a basic service wi=ould be $89. Tech showed p and determined NO refrigerant. Must be a leak! Said there would be additional charge for find the leak, $303???? For about 20 minutes. On top of the $89. I still do not know what I got for the initial $89. Total estimate for repair and recharge $2,100!!!!! I kicked him out of my house. The whole system new 3 years ago was only $4200! I read the detail billing receipt and repair estimate and found they were trying to charge me $118/ pound of R410A coolant, I need 10 pounds. I can buy a 25 pound canister on Amazon for $135. That is under $5/ pound. STAY AWAY FROM THESE THIEVES!

Had used them before and made the call. They were immediately available. Tech came to the house, didn't even turn the faucets on and told us that it would be $1,000 for the job. This included a $200 fee to cut a hole in our drywall inside. We said no thanks, called another company off of Angie's List with an A grade and the total cost for the job was $500. They didn't charge us $200 to cut a hole in our drywall. Michael and Son kept the $69 for the visit.

We have processed your refund even though we did not find any actual fault with the service. We are glad you found the work at a cheaper price but next time around please keep in mind that professional grade service typically costs more and has much better warranties and technicians doing the actual work. thanks

They didn't call ahead so the contractor sat at house for almost one hour and charged me. They had the wrong number for me in their information. I questioned the amount of service and asked to speak to a manager after work was started. I asked that the work stop until a manager gave me a call. On the next day, the manager had not called so I called them. We set an appointment to meet the next day. The next day, I received a call from a different manager who stated I needed to pay the invoice or they were going to file a police report. Intimidation. Unprofessional.

Hired them to come out to do a tune up on my air conditioner. They sold me a maintenance agreement to bump up the price so I could get 0% interest on a credit card to make a repair to the air conditioner because the total had to be over $1200 to get the 0% interest!! turns out they weren't supposed to sell me that plan because we have a boiler but the guy looked at it anyway and didn't make any mention of it. When we turned the heat on the boiler started making noises it had never made before and we started smelling gas. We had the fire department out and they shut off our gas. We called Michael and Son, the guy took forever to get there and then didn't have the tools he needed and started talking about how our plan didn't cover the boiler. They sent another guy and he said the same thing. Why did they sell me this plan if it's not covered. So, I called a friend who has a heating and air business (met him after the first call to Michael and Son, unfortunately!). He looked at the system and said that someone had tuned the gas all the way up and that it was building up in the system and that was why we were having the problem. He spent a few hours cleaning the system and we were able to turn the gas back on. I called Michael and Son to tell them what the issue was and they tried to argue with me but eventually they realized they were wrong and refunded the maintenance plan. Small price to pay for them for trying to kill us!!!

We are sorry you feel that way, But we have not serviced your home since 2016 when you did not want to have us do a leak search for the smell of the gas which we have documented on the invoice you signed, Take care as of 2016 you have been a do not service customer.

EXCEPTIONALLY well!!!! Brian was excellent as he discussed costs and helped me make a decision that I am very happy with. His background in installation of furnaces helped a great deal with his perspectives. Moses and Asare were also excellent in their efficient installation of the furnace and AC unit that has worked perfectly for a couple of months now. I deeply appreciate the patients of all Michael & Son technicians and inspectors who have come to my home over the last 3 years. Moses and Asare were very helpful to ensure I fully understand all the documentation that they left with me and they answered all of my questions. This is a very professional company that has excellent employees. I choose to purchase the AC replacement along with the furnace because it saved me several dollars. Also, both were over 22 years old. Approximate cost below is for the furnace and AC units that I selected. They provided options.

Michael & Sons never under-performs. Pricing is perhaps slightly higher than I could find elsewhere, but I also know you often get what you pay for. I never have to wonder about quality when Michael & Sons does the work! It's always done right the first time. They are one of the few companies who will tell you when expensive work can wait, thus I trust them when they tell me expensive work needs to be done.

Technician came out to the house, looked at the existing pipe and placement for a few minutes. Then called his manager to get a price. The estimate was $1475. When I asked the manager why it was so expensive he explained that it would take a few hours, plus they charge $175 for permit, plus they would have to disconnect and reconnect the range. I explained that there was no existing range and that Home Depot would be installing the range separately. His response was that gas lines are always expensive and that $1475 was the lowest he could go. I contacted another contractor (ARS) who did the work for $700.

Good Morning - We are sorry you felt that our prices were to high - Good quality professional work usually is - Did ARS pull a permit for the work ? Was their plumber a master in his field ? Doe they have lifetime warranties ?

Very badly. They had to order a new faucet. After we hadn’t heard from them for a while, we called. When the plumber tried to install the faucet he said it didn’t fit the sink (a standard Kohler sink) and he would have to order another. When he arrived with the second faucet, he said it didn’t fit either and he would have to order another. We never heard from them again. We hired another plumber who installed a faucet in a half hour with no difficulty.

The plumber that went to the property was a master plumber - We have asked repeatedly for an invoice from the other company to show that they did not have to do anything special to install the faucet with no luck - We would like to know why our plumber was not able to install a simple faucet when another plumber had no issues with it - The plumber that went to the property has been with us for many years and our customers love him - This customer has declined to share any information with us in regards to the other companies work for comparison -

Excellent experience. Removal of old system (50+ years old) and installation of new system took about 1.5 days. The installers were very diligent in their work, pleasant at all times and responsive to all my questions. I commend them for their positive attitude and work ethic. I strongly recommend Michael & Son Services.

I'm very happy. They are very professional, on time and when they say they are going to do some thing they do it, that's what I like about them. Very clean, very courteous. I really like Michael & Sons, they've done several things for several of my homes. I've been using them for many years. Not cheap, but i love the quality of their work. You can go else where cheaper but the quality, professionalism, timeliness, cleaning up after them selves. I really like them. I've been a client of them for many years.

They didn't show up after my husband waited all day. I don't remember if my husband had to call them or they called later, but they couldn't make that appointment and offered a window for an appt on another day. My complaint is that notification wasn't provided until after an entire day of waiting and several phone calls from us.....so we decided to use another company. Wasn't trying to be peevish, just felt like we were being blown off. We've used this company before, usually were pleased.....this time it was disappointing.

They cleaned all my rooms. I haven't did it for over 25 years. They went through all my rooms and cleaned it. I think it was some additional cost. We don't mind, so that's fine. The pricing, if my husband's happy, I'm happy. If I heard the price I will question it. They did great.

Description of Work: I did not need any services. I called because the county was doing work on pipes in my neighborhood. The letter told me to be sure about something that I did not know anything about. I called the company and a supervisor returned my call and was kind enough to explain what I needed to do. Even though I wasn't asking for a paying service, they were polite and explained the situation to me. If I need plumbing work, I will definitely consider this company.
