Fabian & Sons was GREAT!! My tenant called Tuesday to say that their AC was not working. I call and spoke with Gail. She was very patient with me while we tried to find an appointment time. She had someone at the apartment at 9am on Thursday. The technician was on time and fixed the problem. Happy tenant, Happy me! read more

Mike Fabian is the best! We've had our air conditioner serviced a few times by different vendors, including regular maintenance and trouble-shooting a really complicated problem. Sears Home Service is competent, but scheduling them is a nightmare. Mike is an expert and he's flexible with his schedule. Since we live near his office, he's surprised me more than a few times by agreeing to come look at our problem right away. He's thoughtful about his work, explains it well, and he's willing to keep working on it until it's resolved. read more

Wow, they were great! Came out the same day I called and fixed my heater that had been blowing cold air for the price of the service call ($75). Highly recommend. read more

I had Fabian & Sons come out to do some routine furnace maintenance and to diagnose why my humidifiers were not functioning probably. Orest (the technician) diagnosed the problem and explained it to me in terms I could understand. He also showed me some additional functionality in my system that could better regulate temperature between floors. He was prompt, professional and the price was fair. I would highly recommend using Fabian & Son. I have had different companies out to service the furnaces over the last few years - no one properly diagnosed the humidifier issue and none of them explained what Orest did. Highly recommend you support this family owned business - work will be done right and at a competitive cost. read more

These guys were great. We had Matthew and another gentleman whose name I can't recall come out to service the furnace and clean the dryer ducts today. They were very respectful of our home and made sure everything was cleaned up afterwards. Fair pricing as well. Highly recommended. read more

Fabian & Sons is a very solid HVAC company. Needed ac work done as unit was not cooling. Mike came out within 24 hrs, was on time and diagnosed the problem immediately. I got the ac fixed super quick at a reasonable cost. I have used 3-4 HVAC companies over the years and none have been as competent nor as reasonable as Fabian & Sons. I have no upside on leaving a positive review other than knowing if you give them a chance, you will not be disappointed. read more

I'm a little late at writing my review for Fabian and Son. I used them this winter when my heat was not working properly. Fabian and Son was able to come out the same day and arrived at the time discussed. Mike was able to pinpoint the problem, which was minor. He explained to me the problem. He had the part in his truck and was able to fix it quickly. I have gone through a string of HVAC specialists for my A/C over the years, all of which were shady and I have no idea why they are still in business. Fabian and Son made me feel better that there are good people in this industry. If you are in need of an HVAC company, this is the one to call. read more

mike is a genius. i have a steam boiler that cost me a fortune to operate in the winter. mike adjusted my boiler and put in a new thermostat after pinpointing the problems. he has saved me thousands of dollars and almost cut my gas budget in half, leaving me 2 months without payment. he's professional, available for emergencies, reasonable and loves pets. i only recommend fabian and son. read more

What a great experience! Orest did a great job installing our Ecobee thermostat. He made sure to wait around to see that the heating and A/C were working correctly. He took the time to answer all our questions and seems very trustworthy and honest. We look forward to using him the next time we need work done! read more

Called Michael Fabian at Fabian and Son's at 2:34pm on 7/28/2011 after Barry Heating and Cooling totally blew me off without even so much as a phone call to say they weren't going to make it for a 2:00pm appointment (screw them, people have jobs and that is no way to treat a possible paying customer!). So, after Barry H/C blew me off, as I stated, I called Michael and told him my situation and how my AC unit motor was not working and my place was near 90 degrees. Michael asked a few questions about the A/C motor unit and then immediately called one of his workers that was out on call and had him come over to my place with a new motor and install it WITHIN 1 HOUR of me hanging up the phone with him, now that is service!!! It is 4:13pm and his worker (who was very friendly) just finished the entire job and gave me some help with maintenance and answered all my questions about the AC unit I had. Michael, who was at his office, stated that he was even going to try and get the motor replaced under the warranty for me, once again, great service! I would HIGHLY recommend this company and I will be using them again in the future. Thanks, Dave read more

I first used Fabian & Son several weeks ago and received some great advice from Mike in terms of suggesting what I should replace in an old house I'm fixing up. I had not used Fabian & Son before but was looking for someone new as I had a lot of issues in the past with other companies. Mike was great in coming up with suggestions for what I needed and the pricing was more than reasonable compared to other prices I received from other companies. I never felt once that Mike was trying to sell me more than what I needed which is rare compared to other companies. They were very good with coordinating a time for the install of a furnace and water heater as well as fixing a number of ventilation issues I had. Mario came out a couple of additional times to fix even more issues I had an did an excellent job and the pricing for all of the fixes they did was EXTREMELY reasonable. I don't write reviews much but would highly recommend this company to anyone who needs the service or products that they may need. I will definitely be using them again in the future. They went beyond what I expected for service and were very accommodating with my time frame. read more

I hired Fabian & Son to install a stove exhaust hood that vents through the roof. They were on-time, very professional and went above and beyond what was asked of them. All for a very fair price than was much less than what I was quoted from others. read more

Mike helped us with our furnace problem earlier this winter. Called him and he came by a day later and had it fixed within 3 days. Using him again for a few more repairs. Great guy, great company! read more

I had to share my wonderful experience with Fabian & Son. I used Yelp to select them and I found the positive reviews to be right on. Mike's son came right on time and knew exactly what to do. He not only diagnosed our problem immediately, he showed us how we could fix it, if we had the problem in the future. He did maintenance on our air conditioner, that had not been cleaned in more than 2 years, and did not make us feel bad about it. He showed us how to change our filters, He was fast, effecient and the price was very reasonable. I would highly recommend them! read more

Mike came out to look at our furnace. He's extremely responsive, patient (took the time to explain the problem so that even I understood), and customer oriented. He came out twice, charged us for the first visit (expected), but not the follow up. You can tell that this is the type of company that looks to build business on reputation and not taking advantage of folks. read more

These guys are awesome. Mike talked me through an issue completely unrelated to hvac(flooring/humidity) for 20 minutes, knowing that they could not help us with this issue. Will definitely be calling them in the future. read more

I contacted Fabian & Son for a quote to install AC in my vintage Chicago condo. Among the 3 quotes I got, Fabian & Son were the middle in terms of price. We chose them because Mr. Fabian was very astute in assessing our need and the best way to retro-fit our unit. He was the only contractor we contacted who made note of the fact that the crawl space in our ceiling could be used for the install instead of putting visible ducts on our walls. We are beyond happy with the work that was done. The technicians were extremely respectful of my family (even working around my infant's nap time as best as possible), they always took their shoes off in my home without me even asking, and cleaned up after themselves every night before leaving. I was extremely impressed with the team and their work. We are so happy to have a cool, comfortable home and the end result is almost invisible. Fabian & Son found a way to retrofit our unit that respects the architectural integrity of the building, blending the modern comfort of AC with our beautiful vintage unit. I can not thank them enough! read more

Friendly, efficient and best of all very knowledgable. I needed both a furnace and an a/c inspection and routine maintenance done, and Mike (a class act) did very thorough work for a great price. Call these guys first. read more

Mike has installed and maintains the HVAC units is all 46 of our rental units plus our condo. When the HVAC inspector did the final inspection on the new system in our condo he told me that when Mike does an installation he knows it will be right. His charges are competitive and he knows what he is doing. We won's use anyone else. read more

Mike and his team did an excellent job installing my new furnace, a/c and hot water heater ... the guys that came out were meticulous and very professional ... read more

fixed my furnace over the phone! super helpful to restore my heat during the middle of snowmagehdon 2011!

My review is long overdue. I have been using Fabian and Son for many years. What a relief to find such a dependable business. I can't say enough for their integrity. In the years I have used Mike, he has always been personable, prompt, paid careful attention to detail, uber honest and reasonable. He explains the situation carefully. Mike respects your space. His son is cut from the same cloth. It doesn't get any better than this. All I can say to those who did not get a call, you should call again. I found that technology does not perform as well as we hope. It might be the signal not Mike Fabian, he usually returns a call within minutes. read more

Really appreciate the work they did. I called several of the AC companies on Yelp before choosing Fabian & Son. Really good people. From the people who answer the phone, to Mike, to the technician that did the repair -- just a very pleasant experience. read more

These guys got my dryer vents cleaned in great fashion. They had a nice strong 25ft brush which pushed the lint in the dryer vents out which cut our dryer time in half. They thoroughly cleaned the dryer vent and resealed it very well. I would recommend them. read more

It is always difficult to find competent, trustworthy professionals like plumbers, electricians, HVAC, unless you "have a guy..." I was disgusted with two different HVAC men I had used and asked my boss if he knew of anyone. His dad had used some guy named Fabian. My search led me to these folks but guess what? Different Fabian. Never mind, it was a stroke of luck. I've used them twice now and both times I felt that they knew what they were doing re diagnosis, that they were being up front with me about my problem, repaired the problem perfectly and billed me properly with no surprises. The first time Mike came to look at my AC and I needed to have the outside unit cleaned as well as a charge. Last week I had a bigger problem--blockage in the line so that it wouldn't take a charge. Matt told me to set up an appointment with Mary (who is totally on her stuff) for half a day. He returned a few days later with Melvin and they went to work. Some 2.5 hours later Matt told me they had found the problem and were "sailing" and should be done soon. All told, the initial estimate was around $500, more or less. The actual invoice was for $386, reflecting the shorter visit. These guys offer old-fashioned professional, honest work. I feel lucky to have found them. read more
