Countryside Home Services

I have been a long time customer for oil delivery. I have…read morebeen cleaning my boiler myself for the past 20 yrs. I neglected to clean for the past few years so I thought maybe I would start having someone else take care of this annually. I called Countryside to see how much it would cost and was told $189 for a one-time cleaning, or $120 if I agreed to have its cleaned with them every year. I asked all that was involve in the cleaning for $120 and the lady I was talking to read off of a list telling me everything that they would do. I was happy with that price, and it included the entire cleaning so I told her I would have them clean my boiler from now on. The serviceman shows and begins the cleaning. Now while he was in the middle of cleaning my boiler, he comes to me a tells me because the boiler hasn't been cleaned in a few years the price would be higher. I asked how much and he said $189. I wasn't very happy to hear this but now I felt stuck because if I tell him no on the price, he may do something to my boiler. So I agreed. Then he tells me the price will be $189 extra on top of the $120. Now I am really pissed. He explains to me that the ladies who I talk to on the phone don't know what they are talking about when they give the prices. I asked him how long it will take to vacuum the boiler, and he tells me about 30 mins. That is $189 for that 30 mins and I am sure he was done in less time than that. I also told him I bet I'm not the first person be get upset because of the bad pricing I got on the phone, and he agreed that I was not alone. He did call and get me a small discount because he knew I was not happy about this. I still agreed to have him finish because I don't want him to mess up by boiler if I say no. I still figure maybe there was some kind of mistake made, so I submitted a complaint on their website. It's been two weeks now and there is no reply back to my complaint. Maybe the lady who gave me the bad pricing reads the complaints and just deleted it? Is Countryside doing this intentionally to make more money? Be careful if you are dealing with this company.

Countryside Propane

I had a 1000-gallon propane tank installed in-ground. Countryside performed the entire job…read more Excavation, dropped the tank in the ground, ran the line to the house and finished the connection to the inside line that the HVAC company had run from the furnace and stubbed to the outside wall. They cleaned up well. Very professional and outstanding work. Everyone at Countryside were easy to work with, extremely helpful and polite. This was my first propane experience. I knew I wanted to own the tank and bury it in-ground, but they offered excellent suggestions and insight based on my projected needs. I am more than pleased. Would, and have already, highly recommend. I do not understand the 2 bad reviews that I see on Yelp, but they both seem like typical unfair reviewers by folks who misunderstood or made a mistake on their end. My first call, the site survey, the tank install; all handled with genuinely nice and helpful staff at Countryside. Plenty of little but thoughtful and quality touches, that as a perfectionist, I greatly appreciate. And finally, they filled the tank for 10 cents less than the closest competitor, and 30 cents less than the highest quotes I received. (So I originally posted this under Countryside Fuel and LP Gas in Myerstown. Oops. Sorry!)

From the owner: Countryside Propane, LLC. is a local, family owned business serving the Lebanon, Berks, and…read moreLancaster counties, as well as surrounding areas. It was started in 2001 by two brothers, Nelson and Raymond Nolt. They began with one delivery truck and several months later added an install truck. In 2002, Raymond suffered a debilitating stroke that left him unable to speak and get around as before. Despite this set-back the business grew from the home kitchen table to our current office today. From the very beginning the business was dedicated to God and any growth experienced was God\ u2019s blessing. We thank God for this, and we also take this opportunity to thank you, our customers, for your business loyalty over the years.

The first two I was told would not be able to be stretched, which was totally fine, and he tried and I was satisfied. He gave me tips for stretching at home which was super kind and nice! The last two, I was not so thrilled with. The first pair needed resoled, which he did. But rather than asking if I would like them conditioned, he went ahead and conditioned the boots right over the stitching. He missed spots and other spots are globbed on. There is also conditioning inside the boot, very messily. The last pair, we discussed repair and I told him I was able to get a new pair of the same boots for 60$. He told me that rather than resoling them(due to the low price of new boots), that he would just repair the stitching. Fast forward to me coming to pick the boots up, and he resoled both the pairs, disregarding our conversation. He wrote no information down as to what I wanted. So here I am, paying an extra 60$ for resoled boots when I could have just bought them brand new for the same price. Disappointed with my service.
