Wow! He's the real deal: punctual, honest, everything done with integrity, and clear communication at every step of the maintenance and/or repair he's performing. What you've read in the company's overwhelmingly positive reviews was validated by our experience with Pat. We're confident Lake Gaston HVAC will earn your long-term loyalty. They've certainly earned ours.

I spoke directly with Mr. Pat, the owner of the company and he informed me up front what their labor rate was per hour and we set up a time for him to come look at my unit. He kept in constant communication with me and his son Dereck came to my home and had my air conditioning and my thermostat up and running in no time. They were both friendly, professional, and great at customer service and communication and my only regret is that I hadn't found this gem of a family-owned business sooner! I wouldn't call anyone else for my HVAC needs in the Lake Gaston/La Crosse area.

Called before arriving and arrived on time, and took care not to track mud in. As for the job itself (garbage disposal replacement) the service tech tried to unjam the old one first (which would have saved me money) but came to the conclusion the old one was toast. Installed a new one quickly and cleanly. Price was exactly as quoted. As he was boxing his tools I asked if White Glove did any water quality testing and explained a problem I suspect I have on my supply line. He offered to take a sample on the spot that would be sent off to a lab. He quoted me a price and said I could pay in a week when the sample came back. How much more could I ask for? Great first experience with White Glove. They are at the top of my list for future needs.

I've had many techs come out to my house over the years but Nick was one of most professional and knowledgeable techs I have seen. Extremely friendly, knew what he was doing and took the time to explain things where it made sense. I was actually going to go with another company for my next years annual contract but after meeting Nick and watching him go about his job, I'm staying with White Glove. You might find a few companies cheaper than White Glove but by sticking with them, I know I'm getting my monies worth. Thanks Nick for your professionalism and your work ethic. I wish there were more guys like you out there.

Warning: Review Coercion & $1,100+ Pricing Discrepancy…read more I used Santa Air for five years and recommended them to many friends. Unfortunately, their business model has changed from "honest and hardworking" to "opaque and manipulative." The Technical Issues: In 2020, Santa Air installed my trane system but failed to properly connect the emergency heat strips. I spent five winters wondering why my house wouldn't stay warm below 30°F. They missed this mistake during every subsequent maintenance visit over the 5 years. Recently, they tried to charge me $1,700 for repairs I didn't need. A second opinion confirmed their diagnosis was wrong; that technician fixed Santa Air's original installation mistake and the actual sensor issue for a total of $575. The Billing Issues: Their current pricing "tiers" (Bronze, Silver, Gold) are incredibly over-inflated compared to other local HVAC companies. And if you only need a repair included in the Gold tier, you have to pay for all the things you don't need in the tiers below it. When I realized the invoice was vague and the work wasn't needed, I cancelled. The Ethics Issue: The most disappointing part was the office's response. They tried to emotionally guilt-trip me. They held my refund hostage, telling me they would only return my money if I removed my negative reviews. I refused to be coerced and had to fight for three months through my bank to recover the funds for services never rendered. Don't let the high star rating fool you--they are actively pressuring customers to delete bad experiences. Always get a second opinion!!!

We couldn't be more grateful for the wonderful service and our new unit's performance! They worked throughout a chilly day to get us up and running before a winter storm. Our new HVAC system is AWESOME. Our old unit was too small to heat the entire house, and we had to use space heaters to warm our bathrooms up enough to take showers! That's no longer necessary. We're snuggly warm right now and awaiting a snowstorm in comfort. These guys will treat you right. Miguel kept us updated throughout the search-and-order process through install. He sent us an invoice that outlined and explained every step, with an estimate that was right on target. No ugly surprises or ripoffs here! I can't say enough good things about this business. I highly recommend them. Thanks, gentlemen!!!
