Bought a walk-in tub a few years ago from them. Recently the faucet died. Marion water is notorious…read morefor mineral buildup. When the faucet died, I naturally asked them to find and replace the faucet. Here's what I learned: 1 - do not rely on the information provided by whoever answers the phone. They are just a receptionist with zero knowledge about what is possible or practical. 2 - do not work directly with the servicing technician on parts. they don't know how to work with the "front office" to make sure the correct part is ordered...and they don't provide any updates on status of orders. (not my job, was the essence of the explanation) They might be good at cleaning out clogged drains, but I wouldn't trust them to do that right either. Use them at your peril. You've been warned.

TL/DR Review: JP Plumbing & Heating is fantastic! They are actually willing to fix you furnace, or…read moreair conditioner, instead of just trying to sell you a new one. That can mean the difference between spending a few hundred dollars on a repair, or spending several thousand dollars on a whole new HVAC system. Unabridged Review: In order to understand what makes JP so special, you need to know a little about how the HVAC business works. Imagine if every auto mechanic primarily worked on one or two types of cars, but they didn't have a sign out front telling you which types they worked on. So, if you bring your Honda to a mechanic who works on Honda and Acura, he'll have all sorts of parts in stock, and he'll fix your Honda. If you bring that Honda to a mechanic who works on Toyota and Lexus, that mechanic has a choice. He can either order parts and try to fix a car he's not used to working on, or he can tell you your Honda is in bad enough shape that it's not worth fixing. Then, he can sell you a Toyota, make a lot more money on the sale in a lot less time than it would have taken to fix your Honda, and also make it so it's easier for him to fix your car next time. That's exactly how most HVAC companies work. If your system is made by York, and the company you call primarily sells Goodman and Trane, they're typically not going to order a York part for an HVAC unit they don't typically work on, and then have you get angry it's taking so long for the part to get there, when they can make a lot more money selling you a new Goodman or Trane furnace and condenser that they will always have parts for. I don't blame them. I understand why they do it. I just don't want to pay $6,000 for a new HVAC unit when I could have paid $300 for someone to diagnose the problem, and replace a part that probably costs $25-$50. That's where JP Plumbing & Heating comes in. My wife first discovered them after one HVAC company had told me my problem was my thermostat (it wasn't), and quoted me something like $1,200 for a new thermostat, three new filters, and way more labor than a thermostat requires. Then, another company told me my entire HVAC system needed to be replaced. JP sent a tech out. He examined the furnace, and determined that the flame sensors were malfunctioning because they were covered in rust. He spent a couple hours scraping the rust off, and the flame sensors have worked great ever since. This was two or three years ago. We called JP again this past Wednesday afternoon, because the furnace kept kicking on and off randomly. We figured the flame sensors might have rusted again. JP sent a technician out early the next morning (yesterday). He determined that the problem was a broken pressure switch, and he had it fixed in probably less than an hour. So, I have called JP for two separate things, and they were able to fix those things both times, instead of selling me a new HVAC unit. If you want to spend thousands of dollars on a new HVAC set-up, then definitely do that, but don't spend thousands of dollars on a new unit because you called the wrong HVAC repair company. Call JP instead.

Then all they had to do was plug in the new unit into the existing outlet, test and calibrate the unit, and then they were done! I could have purchased the PTAC myself, swapped it with the same model,and saved myself $1800! The technicians that came were polite, courteous and very efficient. I realize that the price was all inclusive. But that is the price that would involve cutting a hole through the wall, installing a sleeve and panel, and putting in an electric plug to power the unit. Unfortunately, I didn't question the price since they don't provide itemized estimates. So I'm just going to have to suck it up. I do have to say that I feel that I was "taken to the cleaner"....

Hands down one of the best service experiences I have ever had! Our central air quit working Wednesday evening. Living in the area 9 years we had never had the need for heating/air repair. Unfortunately Colony was not my first call I made. I called a business I had driven by and was close to our house which I thought would equate to quick service. They did come same day and broke the news our unit needed replaced, however they didn't think they'd be able replace it until Monday and they'd email me a quote sometime in the afternoon. With temps in the 90s we were not looking forward to not having air over weekend. My husband had a coworker recommend Colony. I called after 1pm to see if they by any chance could look at unit the next day because I knew same day service since it was already 1pm would be unlikely. Appointment scheduled for Friday. I got a call back at 3pm they had a tech running a head of schedule and could they come today yet! Tech confirmed that unit needed replaced and we'd get an estimate tomorrow. Steve called me at 730 this morning and gave me a quote that honestly was so reasonable I had to ask 3 times to make sure I heard him correctly. When I asked when the install could be done, he said today, we want to make sure you have air for the warm weekend coming up". By 930 I had Marty onsite for install who was friendly and told me everything he was going to do. By the time I had air going again this afternoon I still hadn't received my quote from the first company I started with. Colony exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend their service! read more

Colony, was, by far one of the best companies I've worked with. I called and got ahold of a project manager who met with me and took time to explain things in terms I could understand. What I liked the most about the first meetup was he was giving us tips. I could tell he was not pushing anything. Its hard to find a person/company that had genuine care for their customers. The Project manager even put up with my calls with questions. So, we decided to go with Colony. The expertise and help we got from the manager helped tremendously. At this point, after a couple bids, I had to go with Colony. They Arrived on time, worked with us while we were there. The installation team were high quality. I say this because they walked us through every step of the installation and ensured we knew everything that was being done. They installation experts were clean (Honestly, no trace of any dirt or dust left behind). You can tell they have been on many jobs, and do it very well. Our family has a new Furnace and A/C, and from start to finish put my Level of effort at minimum. After the installation, because of the project manager and installation team, we have a wonderful HVAC system. Worth every cent. Its hard to find quality like this. The best part is the project manager follows up with you to check to make sure everything went well, and if we have any questions. This was a great experience. Thank you Colony. read more

I am VERY impressed with the whole team at Colony! Their entire process from start to finish showed me that they truly care about their customers. They were not the cheapest, but they weren't the most expensive either. I believe that they gave us sound advice throughout. They actually advised us to go with a slightly smaller system, but we felt that it was important to have the extra cooling capacity. We have not been disappointed! We opted for a Trane variable speed system (both heat and A/C). I'm guessing that the installation was above average in terms of difficulty. (Our house is weird.) But, the installation team were total troopers and they were very conscientious and respectful. We have had the new system for about a month. On the hot days, the compressor has run all the way up to 100% of capacity. But on cooler days, it runs a much lower speeds. I am quite certain that it is already saving us money! It is SUPER QUIET! Most of the time, we can't even hear it running because the fan also runs at less than 100%. But, even when the fan runs at full speed, it is so much quieter than our previous system. Most importantly, our house is finally cool! It does a great job of maintaining temperature. All this is due to the fantastic team at Colony. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again! read more

Recently I had the opportunity to have Jerry, Service Tech at Colony Heating, explain a new IWave-R air scrubber. I had previously had an ultra violet air purifier which was not working and required a bulb replacement every two year. I encountered a problem with the insertion of the replacement filter media and the wire connecting it to the furnace. I had inserted the media in the frame and shorted out the fuse. After hearing about the IWave-R, I decided to install the unit as it required no annual maintenance. The unit has been install for approximately two weeks and I believe it has produced positive results. I suffer from multiple allergies and asthma. Since the installation, I have noticed the quality of the air in my house is better, odors do not seem to linger in the air, and the amount of dust has significantly diminished. My allergy symptoms have lessened. I believe the IWave-R was worth the expense for the improvement of the air and the positive improvement of my allergy and asthma symptoms. Grace Sparling read more

I recently called Colony to have my furnace checked for winter. They had installed it when the home was built 30 yrs ago. The young man that responded was prompt and efficient. As he worked, I asked about rebates I'd heard about. He explained what he knew and suggested I contact the office for more details. In a couple days one of their sales staff called to give us an estimate. Long story short.... today they installed our new Trane High Efficiency Furnace & Air Conditioner. 2 installers with years of experience and one "trainee" arrived about 7:30 and were finished by 2. They cleaned up after themselves. Never spoke a harsh word to each other. Often seemed to know what the other was thinking should be done next. I feel very confident I will get years of good service from my Trane and Colony Heating. Thanks to Marty, John & Brett for a job well done.

The technicians were courteous, informative and under very difficult conditions corrected the problem. I can't express our relief and gratitude and would definitely recommend their services.

Crow's Chimney Sweep

After calling the company that installed my gas fireplace that wasn't working, waiting 2 weeks for them to come and service it only to be told they don't service gas fireplaces even though they sell them, and suggesting I call Crow's did I get the fireplace fixed. Not only did he come to my home days after I called, he found the issue plus other issues with the way it was installed and fixed those as well. Then he ardently put the fireplace back together placing each log and checking to see how how the flames looked. Mind you, he took two hours on a FRIDAY NIGHT to get this all done. So impressed! Highly recommend this company.

I have nothing but good things to say about this company. They were the only one out of five…read morecompanies that returned my call. The electrician even communicated well with me through text. One thing I will say is I requested to wall sconces and a fan and I even asked electrician to pick up all the materials. They went above and beyond they did the whole project. I asked him to takeoff his shoes when he was in the house he did that and more and even cleaned up the whole project. I would say this company has a great value. A great attitude. And willing to do what the homeowner requests. This company is my go to electrical service.

Never, have I ever, been spoken to in such a demeaning manner than when I called Premier Electric…read moretoday to discuss an extremely high bill for the hook up of my hot tub. The women who works as the office manager was immediately defensive and condescending as I tried to to explain my frustration over (In my opinion) an inflated bill. She threw questions at me that didn't make sense, talking down to me by saying things like ... well, are you an electrician, how do you know what he (the technician) did or didn't do, insisting I didn't know what I was talking about. Frustrated, I asked to talk to the owner of the company, and as quick as I asked, she immediately replied with, "I AM THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY!" A quick google search proved that wrong, so now she lied. I have never in my life wrote a negative review about any company but I will tell you, I could not in good conscience recommend this company nor will I ever use them again. The way I was treated was down right abusive and inappropriate. In my opinion, that woman is a detriment to the company. Maria R.
