Services we offer
We service all brands of heating and water heating equipment. We install new systems in an existing space, as well as do new construction of residential and light commercial projects.
We called James and Denny Brager to replace our old water heater. Their visit was our 69th job with Brager Heating and Cooling over many, many years. As usual, they worked with our schedule; let us know if they would be late due to emergency service calls; came prepared; the estimate was a good price; an extended warranty was offered on the water heater; they did the work within the quoted estimate; cleaned up after the job; and made sure everything worked well before leaving. The work was done professionally using proper tools and new high-quality copper shutoff and brass drain valve; it also looked professional as well with everything being installed straight, plumb and level. They took care not to scratch up our new concrete porch and wood stairway with their moving dolly too. Highly recommended; we would call them again.
Description of Work: Replacement of water heater.

The service technician showed up on time and did a good job. It's an older furnace but he gave an honest assessment.

They come out at least twice a year, once to check the furnace and once to check the air conditioning unit. We have two furnaces and two air conditioners. They're very easy to work with. First of all, they're local. We know both him and his dad, are great people, and his mom actually. They're efficient, very quick if you need them for something and they're good to work with. They communicate well. We've always had them, I don't price it out so I don't know what it's compared to.
Description of Work: They checked two air conditioners, changed the filters and did the once a year maintenance stuff.

Description of Work: First, have to say in our previous house, Denny Brager handled the entire installation of our system (ducts included). As someone who services the equipment, he knows how to make it 'service friendly' - For the 15 years we owned that home, he and/or his son, James came each Spring and Fall to service our air conditioner, house ventilation system, and furnace. They are both very professional, reliable, courteous and reasonably priced. | |We recently purchased a house and found ourselves experiencing problems with the heating system. It's a good system, but for some reason the ductwork was not properly installed for the correct zoning. Denny & James added ducting to properly channel the ducts to each zone, and replaced oneof the thermostats which had not been working. We were very satisfied with their work. | |Most recently we arranged for our ducts to be cleansed and when Ductz of Greater Madison came to give us an estimate, they noted that the air-exchange system has experienced a short where the previous owners had installed a 'timer' (rather than having it wired into the system when installed??). During our regular Fall furnace inspection and cleaning service appointment, Denny determined that we need to have some additional work done to make certain it functions safely and correctly. He will return to handle that job. |We are clearly pleased with their work (each and every visit) and will continue to use their services. We trust them to recommend safe, effective solutions for any situation

I spoke with James Thursday afternoon. He said he would be here at 9am Friday. Our door bell rang at exactly 9am. After a quick check of all the obvious things he went straight to our A/C unit and got to work. He replaced a part and had it up and running in under 15 minutes. Later that night I noticed the A/C unit kept running even after our thermostat was off. I called James and he came back to fix it the following day at no charge. He was punctual and VERY professional.
Description of Work: Fixed A/C.

Work was performed within time constraints and with high quality.
Description of Work: We were very pleased with the work James Brager (Brager Heating & Cooling, LLC) performed to redesign the ductwork for a bedroom/bathroom renovation. He was creative in coming up with solutions, was prompt in his work, and neat in his work. (www.bragerheating.com)
