Steve M was a super nice guy and did an awesome job unclogging our shower drain. It was a deep clog and he really took the time to take things apart and try lots of different methods until I was happy with the drainage. Service was also super affordable and well worth it. read more

They did send people out quickly which is a plus .We had a drip under our kitchen sink and they sent a technician the same day who tighten the pipe and thought that would solve the problem. We put a little bucket under the drain and noticed a couple of days later there was water in it, so we called again and explained what the problem was and hadn't been fixed. Ken Cox came the second time and put some putty around it and replaced a washer. This was all covered by our 89 dollar service call. Every time they came they were pushing their service insurance, We had to call a third time because it was still leaking. Ken Cox came back and told us it was shot and needed $360 new pipe and once again the service insurance push. We haven't needed a plumber for years and Marty said "they fix it right the first time", but we still didn't buy the contract and paid full price because I don't think we will be using them again. They are nice, clean technicians but not sure about quality work. Not sure if we paid a second service call but can't tell by receipt and hate waiting for techs to keep coming back. read more

After a heavy rain, I headed to my basement to do a load of laundry. I noticed I had water almost even to my bottom step. Called got an appointment for the next day, in the meantime my husband ran a small put to get it some of it down. They were on time very polite explained we needed to have our main drain cleaned. Did an excellent job , explained everything . They even showed my husband the camera and what it showed caused some of the problem. I would definitely recommend using them. Nick Meyers was super!! read more

I called because my furnace was only blowing cold air. The technician came out and informed us that we needed a new furnace because the heat exchanger was bad. He tried to convince us that it was cheaper to just replace the entire unit. But something didn't seem right, so we called out for a second opinion. The technician came out, and in 5 minutes the furnace was up and running. Showing us that a relay switch only needed to be reset. So needless to say, we WON'T be calling HELP for anymore help! read more

We have had nothing but excellent service from HELP! My father had his air conditioning unit serviced about a month ago and the technician mentioned that it is toward the end of its life (19 years old) and cannot be filled with it's coolant any longer. So we had a salesman come to the house named Garrick. He was super friendly and polite, and explained every single aspect and option. We did not feel that we were being oversold or told to buy something that we didn't need. We chose an option and arranged for installation the next week. Installation was on May 7 and our team of installers was Darren Reynolds and Justin Pence. They arrived right on time, were very conscientious of tracking any dirt in, and always told us what the next step was, whether it was turning off the breaker or shutting down the hot water to install a new line to the humidifier. They were very timely and polite and did a great job, walking me through at the end to explain everything including any maintenance I would need to do myself and how to use the thermostat app. I would definitely HELP for any future needs. read more

I had an emergency today. Candace got an electrician out to me in two hours. Tyler F. fixed the problem in about thirty minutes. Anytime I have needed anything, HELP has delivered quality service from the first phone call to the technician leaving me a very satisfied customer upon completion of the job. I have used them for years and many of my neighbors use the company as well. They stand behind their work and deliver what they promise. They are worth what they charge. You get quality. read more

Updated 02/2025 - After a few back and forth communications and visits from third parties HELP made good on the damage that their workers had caused. There was no push back on the resolution once they realized the extent of the issue. I appreciate that they stepped forward and took care of the issue. I cannot give a higher rating than 3-stars as the issue was easily avoidable and once it occurred it should not have taken a bad review to get their attention to the problem. That said thank you HELP for resolving the issue. read more

See all

Club Membership means nothing. Not only did I have to wait a full week for "priority front of line" service, when it did get to the day of my scheduled appointment, they called and RESCHEDULED me again. Terrible. Not worth the money. Then when I push to try to keep my appointment, I'm made to feel guilty about other people that "don't have hot water." My water pressure drops to zero, but sure, prioritize someone else. Terrible customer service. read more

Ben M did an outstanding job for us. I feel he went above and beyond to asses our situation.

Had a new water heater installed. Would have done it myself but just arriving back home after a sick child in the hospital I was not in the right state of mind to do it. We got absolutely hosed on the install cost. My own fault for agreeing to it but I had other priorities to worry about. Got an itemized invoice after asking multiple times. $1300 in overhead?? Right. The tech was super nice but will never work with this company again. Doc Rusk all the way. As a side note, when we moved into our house the entire basement had 333 help stickers and magnets literally everywhere. The breaker box, the furnace, every water shut off... Maybe that's the 1030 of overhead. read more

Tyler Calhoun did a great job with a not so easy installation. Although we had a full standard HVAC system, we upgraded to a 2 Stage High Efficiency and had the AC compressor moved from the back of the house to the side. This required running new electric as well was ventilation pipes. He was there for two full days and did a very professional installation with full clean up afterwards. read more

Bryan Roberts was very polite and friendly and professional I would recommend him to my friends and family very knowledgeable

I called Help once and they unclogged my drain. It has a lot of roots. I'd been using Zen Plumbing prior to that but they're a little expensive. Help was reasonable. Well, the 2nd time I called them for roots, they got the auger stuck in my drain. I've had probably a hundred plumbers out here in the last 7 years, and none of them had this happen. When I asked them to get it unstuck, I was told it would 3000 dollars for a jet that Zin's only charged 950 for the get it unstuck. I don't think I'm responsible for paying to get it unstuck. I've talked to a lawyer and it's going forward. Would definitely not recommend. Sounds to me like they did it on purpose to make money off me.We'll see in court. read more

HELP heating/cooling is wonderful! Our furnace went out Friday morning (25 degrees outdoors). HELP sent a technician and then a supervisor to tell me I needed a new HVAC system. Tyler Calhoun and his partner were at our house Saturday morning. These men were efficient, courteous, excellent installers! They worked indoors and outside! Thanks to Tyler!!​ read more

Had Help out twice. Once to clear a storm drain and the next to do the maintenance on the AC. The bid on the clearing the drain turned into a $6,000 bid. Which I did not accept. With a couple of friends and 3 hours of work and less than $500. With over half of that being for an excavator to dig a pipe less than 2 feet down. The maintenance on the AC turned into a request for $1,475. $255 of that was labor to install a capacitor that was under warranty. To show me the capacitor needed to be replaced, he brought it into the house. (1 screw and unplugging 4 wires). He reinstalled the bad capacitor, then asked me if I wanted to replace it. I figured for something that easy, maybe what $50. Nope $255. You guys do what you want, but unless. you're just willing to throw money away, I think I would try somebody else. read more

My old furnace had developed holes in the heat exchanger so I already knew that I needed a new one; I signed the contract with HELP last Friday. Today Darren Reynolds and Phil Carnes showed up at exactly 8:00, put down tarps to keep from tracking mud in my house (it was raining), and did a very nice job of installing my new Lennox furnace. The installation involved changing input & exhaust pipes, removing dampers, and fixing a few other things that had been incorrectly done in the past. They also showed me how to operate my new thermostat. Darren even put in a couple of new 8-ft. fluorescent tubes for me in addition to the assigned tasks (I had the bulbs but could not reach the fixtures). Overall I am very happy with the work they did, their professionalism, and the way they cleaned up before they left. read more

They could find plumbers who are capable of doing the actual job they were hired to do. NEVER recommending them again!!!

Stay away. Our first experience was great. The plumber that came out identified a few issues other than what we originally needed done and was able to work with us on pricing. Signed us up for their "club" to have our HVAC system checked in the spring and fall and priority appointments. Called a few times since and their prices are just way too high. The most recent was almost $600 to change out 4 valves under our bathroom sinks. This included a "diagnostic" fee even with telling the plumber exactly what we wanted done. Other than our first appointment, we haven't received any receipts for services. Called to cancel their club and was told we would need to repay our "savings" since it's a year membership. Will definitely be canceling as soon as that year is up. read more

Scam artists called to have a leek where the main line comes into the house. Told me the whole line from the city shut off needed to be replaced at a cost of $8,800 which is a lot of money for anyone on a fixed income . So the next day I had another plumber over and he fixed it in about 20 minutes at a cost of $100.00. They tried to scam me but I am not stupid,just stay away from them. read more

I had compressor go out. Help came could not help. Wanted almost $500 for freon. Quoted me over $6000 for replacement. Found an independent replaced with new unit $2700. Help are crooks read more

Have had HELP to the home three times. Once for a shower repair. Excellent communication, reliable, on time, but seemed a bit pricey. Had them out again for an HVAC issue. Buying their annual plan differed cost. Again, great communication, reliable on time. Had them out a third time when AC was not working properly. They charged $485 for a thermostat that should have cost no more than $150. So good company - Safe, reliable, etc. BUT VERY EXPENSIVE!!! read more

Interesting that landlords ARE REQUIRED to pay for a years subscription right on the spot. But if YOU live there, they'll charge you a one time fee. Absolutely ridiculous business model. The subscription should be optional and it should be illegal to treat/charge homeowners and landlords differently. read more

I was quoted $2,000 for a pretty simple toilet repair. I was shocked and felt they were trying to way overcharge me. The repair guy said he felt it was high and admitted they are on the high side of repairs. When I spoke with the office the manager seemed irritated I refused service. I should have looked at the reviews on here before contacting them. read more

Phil Carnes was very professional, knowledgeable, patient, careful, friendly and left my home clean,made sure I knew how to operate my new system read more

Friendly. Very helpful showing how to use new thermostat. Cleaned up completely. Allowed me to take a video on how to chage filter. Help has taken care of several issues for us and we've always been very satisfied with their service read more

HELP provided a wonderful plumber on the July 4th holiday weekend when no one else I contacted would be available until the following week. What a mess I had with water leaking from the back of the toilet tank and a frozen water shutoff valve. The plumber arrived within the time they stated he would and was quick and thorough. Matt's thoughtful manner had me asking him, if he had time, to repair another plumbing issue. He also noticed I was dealing with a hard water problem based on how the toilet bowls looked and provided advice on how to address. I now know I have a company I can trust to provide the solution needed with reasonable rates. Thank you HELP. And great job having Matt on your team! read more

They came to perform my AC tune up, broke my one year old AC, and offered to fix it for $1000.

To Justin Turner, Your reply that began with, my broad overview. So you said in your reply that you have options beginning at 2 grand and up and asked if my daughter was given options. NO SHE WASN" T! She was handed a quote for 10 grand period. Here's the kicker Justin. The water heater wasn't bad. The pressure relief valve was stuck . A $20.00 repair! I fixed it! It's running still today? I guess your technician didn't know what a pressure relief valve was. This wasn't my first experience with you guys. I had previously called you guys for a clogged sewage drainage problem. You advertised $99.00 for this service. Long story short I was charged $350.00 by one of your so called plumbers that after working for 3 hours on it finally said, I think I've only poked a small hole through it and it won't last long. This idiot didn't even know what a pair of vise grips I had handed to him was !! Gimme a break. 2 days later, he was right about one thing, it clogged up again. Know what I did Justin Turner? I called a local plumbing company ( Tony's Heating and Plumbing),and they came out and in 15 MINUTES unclogged my sewage line!! 15 minutes Justin Turner!!! It has ran clear to this day and get this Justin Turner, they charged me $150.00! So what does that all say about your Company? I'll let you answer that!! I would really love to hear your answer as what I have just stated is NOT A BROAD OVERVIEW!! ITS A FACT!! read more

My parents called HELP when their sewer line backed up into their home because they saw the ad that they will unclog ANY line for $97. Well when HELP got their they quoted them $5900. Then after they started the job they put a camera inside and told them them it would be another $2000 to flush out the line. Overall they ended up spending $7995. My parents are 82 years old and on a fixed budget and I feel they were misled by HELP. The worst part is after all was said and done MSD came out and said they would have blown out the line for them for FREE. The people at HELP come across as very nice but they are not honest. They also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Well my parents are not at all satisfied and still have a looming credit card bill. read more

These guys are SCAM artists and try and upswell services and parts not needed. More than one tech repeats same message. My experience was two techs on two separate occasions trying to sell a motor starter capacitor for $800. If the blower runs, the cap doesn't need replaced AND a starter cap doesn't cost more than $50 and takes about 15 min to replace if you are slow. Stay away from these guys. read more

I would not recommend this company to anyone! They were out three times to repair my AC at the total cost of $847 and never did get it working. I do have an older AC unit, but it does still have some life in it and I just needed it repaired. They kept trying to sell me on a new AC which I cannot afford at this time. The first technician acted like he knew what he was doing, but needed to call his supervisor for assistance. The second technician I don't think he knew what he was doing at all , they were definitely price gouging because I had another service come out and they did the repair work that was needed to get my AC up and running again for hundreds of dollars less. I complained to HELP and has been 30 days with no response. They falsely advertise hundred percent satisfaction or money back. I would not trust this company with anyone let alone to grandma's house as they advertise, I am a grandma and they were trying to take my money, for a reason that was not warranted. Do not use this company! read more

And to make matters worse, the day I talked with them and scheduled them to come out, they also talked me into an annual service plan. After they didn't show up the next day like planned, I told them not to bother and to cancel my maintenance agreement. Even after canceling it, I'm still getting charged for it. Looks like this fight is go go into the second round. It shouldn't be this difficult to cancel a service after one day. Especially since they never even made it to my house. If we could give negative stars, I would. The only reason they get one star is because I can't post this without it. I just got off the phone trying to cancel this again. The girl said she couldn't do it, that I had to do it through a help website., and that I won't get a refund for what they have already taken from my account. Looks like it's small claims court if the website doesn't refund and cancel this. Small claims court will cost them a lot more than it will me. I don't think that this is the type of advertising that they want. read more

This review is for HELP electrical. Scheduled service about 3 weeks ago. Initial appointment was 11 days out. Got a call day before that club members have priority and now need to reschedule. So, second appointment scheduled 9 days out. Got a call at about 4 pm day before date of appointment that they need to reschedule again. So, this sounds like it would go on forever. Very Bad Service. No stars if I could. read more

Like many on here lately I am beyond disappointed with the "service plan" offered by HELP!. Let's start with the 96% right the first time. I can't believe that is true, not just because mine is 0% but because they can't even tell you what they are tracking it at. Like others I was surprised that mid July was the first time they could schedule routine summer maintenance. THEN they had to cancel because they had too many emergencies. I know they had too many emergencies the day before as well because they accidentally called me the day before thinking my appointment was on a different day. When I called to reschedule I was quoted an earliest date 5 weeks after my original appointment. In addition when I asked to speak to a service supervisor (not the first time) I was told they don't come to the phone and they would reach out to me in 3-4 days after the call center rep sent an email. My displeasure started well before this experience when after spending the money for them to install a new furnace and AC they had to come back 6 weeks later because I had no heat. I had to drag out of the technician that his assessment was that the set up was incorrect versus the equipment being faulty. Just some information for you to consider when evaluating HELP! Nichole R. Your standard reply to every bad review does no good for anyone. How about one of the service manages call me back like I was told would happen over a week ago. read more

Terrible customer service. They cancel and try to reschedule EVERYTIME (literally every single time, no joke)! They get you to sign up for a $10/mo membership that gives you discounted services and an annual heat & cooling tune-up and then cancel on you. It feels like a SCAM! Please choose a different company, one with good reviews and a good reputation! I was flexible the first few times because I understand the labor shortages, etc. but this has just gotten ridiculous. read more
