In September 2026 JohnMoore service company installed a new HVAC system which included Trane air conditioners. We also became members of their VIP program that offers a free AC check and heater check in the spring and fall, respectively. Our first spring AC check was on April 1, 2026. We did not expect to have any repair costs because it was a brand new system, installed by JohnMoore. However, there are 4 filters that were replaced. Our bill totaled over $1500. We were shocked. I looked on Amazon prime for the cost of the exact filters that were installed. The cost was $200 ($50 per filter). I questioned the total of our invoice and asked for a breakout of what we were charged. For example, how much was charged for the installation of the filters and how much was charged for the filters themselves. The customer service representative I spoke with, Monet, did not have as friendly a customer attitude, compared to that of the sales team, service techs and the installation team. She informed me that she could not give me a breakout of what we were charged. However, she did give us a credit of approximately $459. So we paid ~$1,000 for the installation of four filters which cost a total of $200, making the service fee $800. Every other service company we deal with provides a breakout of labor and parts. This experience makes me question John Moore's service practices. I hope the owners of JohnMoore read this and make improvements in their customer service, including providing their customers with a breakout of costs. read more

They act like they don't need your business. They stood my tenant up TWICE. Said the visit would be free. Finally when the technician was going to show up, after 5 calls and multiple follow ups, he said there was a $69 charge for landlord/tenant visits. When I asked why he said it was for THEIR inconvenience for dealing with landlord/tenants. I told the scheduler multiple times that this was a rented property from the first day I called and she said the visit was free. When I told the technician to run it up to his supervisor and call me back I never heard back. Absolute mess. Scheduling line and technicians play hot potato. Go somewhere else! read more

TV ad is false. Charged $150 dollars to come out and look at our AC ducts for cleaning. Person said it would be $600 per vent x 10 vents....$6000.00 to clean the ducts. I think they are way off. Changing the ENTIRE AC duct trunk line and vents was only $3500 thru another company. DONT DO JOHN MOORE UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY a $150 "free" SERVICE CALL FOR THE RIGHT TO EARN YOUR BUSINESS. ZERO STARS! After reading thru every review on here. It will be a GREAT DAY for HOMEOWNERS when this scamming company goes out of business. read more

With John Moore, "they get More" They introduced me to my first $5000 water heater install. 50 gallon electric and on the first floor utility area. Tenant was without hot water for 3 days so I was under duress. Now if I can just get the tenant to pay her rent....lol Hope everyone reads this. Its rediculous. read more

We were quoted $600 to clear a blockage in the condensate line. We live in central Houston. This took the technician less than 15 minutes to complete. The costs were broken down as follows: $100 for travel. $100 for the technicians time. $100 profit for John Moore. $300 "usury fee' because the heat index was over 110 degrees and they could easily take advantage of you. Avoid at all cost. read more

Just had service performed on my bathroom sink which has a AC runoff. The service tech was good, diagnosed the issue and ran a snake thru the pipes and cleared the blockage. What I'm not sure about was the cost: $375.00 for 30 minutes of work and that included 10 minutes of letting water run to ensure the blockage was cleared. I'm satisfied with the work and the representative was good, but $375.00? DAMN!! read more

We had a deeply frustrating and costly experience with John Moore, and I would strongly caution anyone before trusting their diagnosis. We contacted them because we noticed a persistent wet patch in our yard and suspected an underground leak. Their team came out, assessed the situation, and told us it was a sewer line issue. Based entirely on their professional recommendation, we approved $11,000 in sewer repairs. The problem was never resolved. It turns out the issue we originally called about had nothing to do with the sewer. A later visit identified the actual cause: a leaking sprinkler line. The fix? Capping the line, a quick, simple repair that cost $185 and immediately stopped the wet area. Let that sink in: $11,000 vs. $185. The photos make this even more concerning: * The first image shows the extensive digging done by John Moore to "fix" the sewer line, leaving our yard torn up and in poor condition. * The second and third images show the actual issue weeks after -- a small sprinkler line leak that required minimal work and was resolved in minutes. Even more troubling, we learned after the fact that John Moore does not handle sprinkler systems, yet this possibility was never identified or ruled out before recommending thousands of dollars in repairs. Additionally, during the backfilling process, debris including bricks was thrown into the trench, and our main water line was damaged as a result, creating a flood and further issues When we raised this issue and asked for a resolution, we were ultimately told by Jacob the plumber as well as Yanis and Brice at the customer care, they do not owe us anything. We trusted their expertise and made a major financial decision based on their diagnosis. Instead, we were left with an unnecessary $11,000 expense and a damaged yard -- all for a problem that was fixed for $185. If you are dealing with any kind of underground leak, do yourself a favor don't call John Moore and get multiple opinions before moving forward! read more

Formal Review for John Moore Services - Technician: William BrooksRating: 1/5 stars Review Title: Disreputable Pricing Tactics and Highly Unprofessional, Disrespectful ConductOn June 23, 2026, we hosted a scheduled appointment with John Moore Services for a standard HVAC tune-up and an estimate for vent/register cleaning. While technician William Brooks arrived punctually and was initially polite, the subsequent service and communication were deeply concerning and entirely unacceptable.The technician's assessment of our HVAC system was highly exaggerated and starkly contradicted the documented, known condition of our equipment. Furthermore, the promotional rate explicitly promised during booking was not honored; the promotion covered nothing, and the resulting quotes for recommended services were astronomically inflated. The presentation felt less like a preventative maintenance visit and more like an aggressive, high-pressure sales maneuver.The situation escalated unreasonably when the technician called my husband, who was away attending a medical diagnostic appointment for our son. After reviewing the itemized estimate, my husband politely thanked Mr. Brooks and requested time to evaluate the financial scope of the proposal before granting authorization. Mr. Brooks immediately became agitated by this request. He responded with highly offensive and manipulative commentary, stating that "a man would have authorized the service to protect his home" and claiming he would have done so without hesitation.Despite being under no obligation to justify our financial decisions, I informed Mr. Brooks that our family is currently managing significant, ongoing medical expenses for our child, necessitating a careful review of any major household expenditure. Rather than offering professional courtesy, he continued to leverage inappropriate guilt tactics to force an immediate sale.We paid for a professional technical service but instead received deceptive pricing and egregious personal insults. This high-pressure extortion tactic is entirely unethical. We will never utilize John Moore Services again and strongly advise prospective clients to seek alternative providers. read more

Common y'all want to talk about other business need to talk about how you train your people, again your technician made my wife to dig to cap off a gas line while I was at work WRONG wish I was at home anyway after capping gas line still couldn't get natural gas had water in line and you think they get water out line what a joke read more

I had a hole in my drip pan that somehow became crystallized algae in my pipes that would require a French drain line or repiping of the whole house. It was so severe only plumbers could fix it. The hvac repairman refused to unclog the line " it was too hard" I called another hvac repairman co. Who unplugged the line in 30 min. They saved me from John moore and their $1000+ scam/con. read more

Had the inspection for my ac unit last month$45. The next month the ac stops cooling and the thermostats won't go below 71. I did not have this problem before. Scheduled a service the next month and the technician was 4 hours late. Charged me before he did the work and said it was too late to use my coupon. AC is still not cooling below 71. Don't use them. They are the worst. They create problems and then overcharge you to fix it. read more

Just had small 3 ton AC unit need some updated maintenance. I called John Moore for an estimate. The technician was so friendly and knowledgeable. Great interaction. Then I read the estimate! The estimate sent was for an entire replacement with all of the bells and whistles. They quoted me just around $19K, $16K of that was for the AC unit. When I asked if they could shave off some of the options to make it more cost effective. They later sent me one where the unit itself was $25K then they had some line items that were manager approved "discounts" but the new total was even more that the original quote! They seemed extremely overpriced and just over kill for solving the problem. ranging from $3,500 for a non-guaranteed repair to just about $25K with "discounts" that lowered it to $19K. This seems way off. I received a competitive quote the same day from a smaller business, and it was a fourth of the cost and they had the same guarantee. Make sure to shop around these big box shops AC units seem to be more of a competitive area where smaller businesses will guarantee work and parts standard. It seems like John Moore has good people who are forced to up sell anyone they quote from something reasonable to the price of a major overhaul. I am so glad I shopped it around. read more

I had a problem with my air conditioning when the service man came over to my house. He looked outside at the unit and I said are you going to check the attic? He said no because then I'd have to charge you a service call. I cannot stand this company they never diagnosed the problem. read more

Now I know why the nick name is John pay Moore!!! Yes, my AC was old. Had them come out for maintenance check. Everything checked out, talked me into a yearly plan. Thought that was a good idea. 1 week later the AC wasn't cooling. They were very prompt coming back out, condenser was running that morning. Technician came out and now the condenser wasn't running anymore and I suddenly need a new AC!!!!! Quote was for $30,000 say what???? I live in Houston, TX AC is non-negotiable ( single, 2 kids and pets) found two more quotes both close together paid $13,000 for entire AC replacement. Please be careful as they prey on the vulnerable. Bought a portable AC unit to keep us cool in one bedroom until work could be finished. read more

Service was timely; however, the pricing was high, and I should have known better. I was given two prices for an issue with my toilet not running at times. The prices were $399 and $699, both with a 2-year warranty. The lower price did not replace as many parts, and the second price replaced more parts. I opted for the higher price, but more than likely should have taken the first price. I didn't inquire about a senior discount and don't know if it was available. I primarily used them because my daughter was visiting and needed to use the dysfunctional toilet. Lesson learned and will not act too quickly in the future. read more

Our AC stopped working and we called John More mainly because of their commercials. They determined that the issue was low refrigernat and offered to find the leak for $890. After about 20 minutes, they were able to show us a picture of the leak on the Fan Coil. They stopped checking at that point. That is over $2500 / hour. They told us that at a minimum we would need to replace the Fan Coil and Condensor Unit and gave a quote for $17,000. After that, we obviousely got a few other quotes which were half and included two stage condensors. We should have checked reviews before calling. If you call John, be careful about being billed a lot more! read more

He advertises free estimates and that is false advertisement. They charge to come out and only give you the service fee after they assess the problem not only that they use AI generated answering service. I cancelled my appointment twice and the guy still showed up but of course I didn't use them. It's such false advertisement. read more

I was raped by John Moore. Had a drain clog and called John Moore. They came out for a free diagnoses, 870.00 later they said I had roots in my drain line and would have to dig under the slab and replace it. estimate 5-6 thousand dollars. 11,000 dollars later I have running drains. I am retired and am on a fixed income. They had convenient financing for 18 years. i feel foolish, please don't fall for their false advertising. I never saw the same person twice. Very nice and convincing that you need to be able to flush your toilet. read more

The quality and value are deplorable on new air conditioner!

My recently widowed, 80 year-old mother called John Moore to repair a leaking toilet. Instead of just fixing the broken flange, they unnecessarily "upsold" her not only on a new toilet but also a new porcelain toilet (vs. the plastic toilet she had). The end result was a $2,600 charge for what should have been well less than $500. Blatant taking advantage of an elderly person. Called John Moore to complain 3 times. Ultimately, my mom received a $300 "elderly" credit that she should have gotten in the first place. Otherwise, John Moore remained stood behind their aggressive sales tactics. read more

JOHN MOORE Services are a complete rip off!!! My ac went out Wednesday and I called for them to come out Thursday to diagnosis and possibly fix it. They quoted my guy $2,429.99 stating it is the capacitor and fan motor. This lying tech half way put a capacitor on supposedly isolating , yet he did not attach all of the wires, so of course nothing would work. My guy took a pic of it,when the tech went to the truck, and texted me showing how the tech was trying to get over on us. The tech called me quoting all these different rates and I said no thank you. So my guy said he'd call some ppl he knew. Long story short my guy went and bought both parts and he and I decided to repair it. So, Saturday morning we are out there at 8 am and decided change the capacitor first....and guess what?!!!!! THE AC STARTED!!!! It was not the motor It was a part that cost $23.50 We all know when service ppl come out you are going to get taken but this bull they tried is down right criminal I am blasting then on all social media, yelp, their page, and calling corporate. I am so disgusted with the technician and John Moore's unethical practices I gave 1star so my re ore would go through. They truly get 0 stars read more

Unfortunately the John Moore review is not true. The technician came to my house and went to the backyard and asked me what happened and I explained. He opened the back drainage and said that my pipes need to be replaced. He said I did not qualify for the inspection to see what's going on Even though this was the reason for the visit. Soon as John Moore left I called Roto-Rooter. Roto-Rooter came out within an hour put the line down and it was toilet paper. Go figure Imagine being out of a thousands of dollars for no reason. Thank God for Roto-Rooter service and inspection as John Moore should! read more

John Moore is a scam. The technician, named Troy Bolden came and inspect the air-duct system and air vents for cleaning air duct for AC system and repairing the sealing on air vents. He quoted $1,630 for the whole system including cleaning and repair. The next day, the service technician came and said that their scope of work is only cleaning. They can reach out to all the air vents except one at very high ceiling. They asked me to call back to office for a discount. Normally, the cost of air duct cleaning is around $500 to max $1,000 for big house (more that 3000 sqt house). This is the first time I used John Moore services. On their website, they hinted that the review rating is 9.5 our of 10. I don't think it is true. So, be very careful with the scam. read more

I was looking for a company that could replace my AC in the attic and a hot water heater as well that offered financing. I agree to the terms with a 6 month promotion at 0% interest. That was 3 years ago. I am in the process of moving banks and was looking to log into the 3rd party loan company to change banking details. That is when I spotted the can in Interest rate and lack of months at 0%. The loan company told me they changed the details of the loan before it was approved. John Moore changed this and did not notify me of the change. When I call John Moore to clear this up, they claim to "escalate the issure" but nothing happens. I have called numerous times to try and get my yearly membership cancelled. another issue is that the tech tried to get me to approve redoing the entire duct work system costing over $20,000. All I wanted was a $200 payment so that I could get the items replaced. I feel like I made a deal with the Devil for how evil and deceptive they have been after the work has been performed.

I won't recommend John Moore. I called for dish washer clog, was informed the garbage disposal needs to be replaced. The 1/2 HP garbage disposal is only 120.00 and to replace it through them was going to be a 900.00 bill. I refused to pay this high overhead charge and now buy it myself through Lowe's and having a simple contractor install it for 200. Technician that came out from John Moore was great friendly, knowledgeable but I'm refusing to use them for any projects that come up. I'm not paying for their inflated overhead charges because they are a company. 159.00 lesson learned. read more

My first call to John Moore Services was for a clogged kitchen sink. They came out during the allotted time period, unclogged the sink and charged me the $69 quoted. No problems. My next call was for a clogged master bathroom toilet. After it was determined the clog was in the main line, I was presented with a quote for $17800.00. And that was with a $3000 "manager discount ". This was for tunneling under my home to repair "possible " separation and elevation issues. I had my handyman install a new Kohler toilet and problem solved. Please don't fall victim to the excessive "up"sale. read more

Mr. Moore, you get on your commercials and you talk about how you care about your people and your customers. Well, I just learned that that is not the truth! One of your employees showed up at my elderly parents home. With no air-conditioning working and charge them over $7000 for a part that we found at Harbor freight for $145!! Everyone should know that a couple in their late 70s is on a fixed income. He completely took advantage of them and it is absolutely disgusting! And we are spreading the word to anyone that will listen " Do not to trust John Moore air-conditioning and heating!" read more

STAY AWAY!!! They take advantage of people. Very aggressive sales people that pose as technicians. They swarmed my house and tried to distract me while damaging items not in the repair list. I was left with cracked light switch plates they charged me for and took my old ones. They disconnected all of my bathroom fans and said they needed repair - refused service. They charged me to fix my electrical main line (spliced by another contractor) and they did buy overcharged me for work they didn't do. read more

A/C unit went out, within 4 hours a tech came out. He made a call, a new unit is in stock, and installed on Memorial day! Aaron is amazing, thorough, and with a couple of calls, all is set. Great experience ,and 10 year warranty. Mr. Valentine, Mr Aaron is a keeper! read more

Very dissatisfied after the advertising on TV said that it was $49.00 for a sink back. I was then told when they came out that it would be $179.00 after they clean out an outside line then they would charge us $49.00. False advertising . Would not recommend. Prices t o me seems inflated. read more

I can't speak for their workmanship because we never got that far. I called them because they advertised unclogging a sink for $49. They didn't even look at my clogged kitchen sink before they had removed part of my ceiling below the bathroom?? and wanted $7700 to do a lot of unnecessary work replacing pipes that were working just fine. After some discussion they backed down to $3600 to replace just one 12 foot section of PVC under the kitchen sink. A section that they had already cut into without my permission to start any work! I refused their estimate but still had to pay $450 for their "diagnoses" and to repair the pipe they cut! I had another plumber do the job for $800.00 and everything works fine. John Moore tries to take advantage of people and charge them hundreds more than other plumbers and talk you into a lot of unneeded work! Having them in my house, tearing up things and quoting me all sorts of unbelievable prices was a nightmare. Call John Moore - pay more!!! read more

Requested an estimate for changing out a 15-year-old water heater. I was given a 4-hour window between 2pm and 6pm on the 20th of December. I waited around for the set time, but nobody showed up. I understand the holidays are busy, but a simple courtesy call to the customer would have been the right thing to do. When you call you get AI. When you ask to talk to a human, you get an answering service. I understand now why John Moore Services has such a poor rating. I know who not to call now! read more

Updating my 03/31/2025 review for John Moore - After multiple attempts I was finally able to get a refund for the service plan that we did not agree to purchase. The refund came after multiple attempts and receipt of a "No" the first go 'round. Thanks to Sandra, all of my issues were discussed and addressed. As I shared with the various individuals I spoke with, I have no plans to use John Moore again in the future -- I think they are way overpriced and I believe they are too heavy handed when it comes to their sales tactics. read more

Our pilot lights went out on our 6 year old water heaters. We called John Moore to come out to assess and re light the pilot lights. Rey came on 4/20/26 and took a video showing that he could not get the pilot lights to stay lit. He then offered repair services of $2800 per water heater or that we should consider replacing our existing water heaters with a tankless at a price of $11k and it could be installed the very next day. We declined. I had a local company come out that same day (within hours of Rey leaving) and not only did the technician get the pilots lights lit and working, he did a full inspection of both water heaters and said that they were in good working condition without any corrosion etc….the technician also took the extra step to show my husband and I how to re light the pilots next time and offered troubleshooting tips. John Moore should be audited and investigated for their practices of preying on their customers for unnecessary repairs and equipment. read more

Booking was easy and the tech arrived right on time for the appointment. One star rating is because I believe they are very misleading and potentially scammers. Had a call over for a broken furnace. Tarek Janbay who was the technician sent over opened the furnace and recommended replacing a circuit board and blower. Total price $5K. But said really I should replace the whole unit for $8K. Keep in mind this is only a 4 year old unit so was very surprised the defect was that severe. Funny thing was the pricing for this repair was the same with or without warranty for parts from the manufacturer meaning he was charging me $5K for labor. I know technician rates are high but at that rate I need to take some classes and get into this business. Well I called a second company over for a second opinion and they stated the issue was just with some debris build up in the pressure switch tubes. Blew them out and got the unit fixed for only $150. Always get a second opinion as they will really take advantage at every turn. read more

In 2024 we contacted John Moore Pest control, as we had been hearing noises in the attic. They came out (promptly, if I remember correctly), and we were told we had raccoons. We paid $9000.00 for a service that was supposed to include removal of the raccoons , removal of everything in the attic . cleaning the attic, and replacing the attic contents. They also advised that we had rotten siding, and patched up the places where the raccoons got in. (metal screening) I have no complaints about the raccoon removal itself, or the patching part, although the patching all had to be removed when we had the siding replaced a short time later. It took two additional visits, though, to have the removal and replacement of the attic contents and cleaning completed as specified. Felt like the Keystone Kops were working on it. We had also paid for inside/outside pest control, and the technicians for that have been fine. I had expressed my dissatisfaction to the company about the extra visits required to complete the attic job, and said that what we had already paid for (inside/outside pest control) was ok, but we would not be using John Moore Pest Control again once it was completed. We had visits for pest control in 2025, which were fine. I had already concluded that we had overpaid for their services (my fault, as I had not gotten other bids.) I also felt the sales person was high pressure (probably should have looked for someone else at that point).. I did not communicate this to John Moore. . On February 6, 2026, a technician appeared for a pest control visit. I was confused as to how many visits we had already had, and allowed him to do the treatment, assuming that we had already paid for it.. On February 6 2026 we received emails from John Moore telling us the technician was coming, and asking if he had done a good job. I think by the time I saw that, he had already been and gone. I had assumed that this treatment was already paid for, but was proved in error when I received an invoice.. I also went back in my checkbook, and saw 2024 for the earlier payments.. .Moral- Don't assume!. I called John Moore, and explained what I saw as the situation, and was told someone would call back. Received several additional requests for payment of the invoice. Called again, explained to someone else, , was told someone would call back. No one did. Got another request for payment, though! . I just paid the invoice, but advised that I had not agreed to any future service. I would not recommend. this company, although many of the individuals who did the actual work did do a good job.. read more

I was referred to this company. They came out to check for a water leak but ended up just playing around with my house without actually finding the issue. They couldn't resolve the problem and were not willing to work with my home insurance. Instead, they sent the bill to collections for an unreasonable charge. I decided to hire another company that could properly work with my insurance and handle the job professionally. This company felt like a complete scam -- stay away! read more

My ac quit working so I called John Moore Services. Alvaro found the part I needed in my air handler. The repair quote was over $2700 but since the unit was less than 5 years old he said it was under parts warranty and I'd only be charged for labor. (I did not own house when the unit was purchased and I found no information on who originally did the work). Anyway the "labor" charge would be half of the $2700 so it was just over $1350. Alvaro came back with the part the next morning and replaced in 20 minutes and all is now working. I found the part on internet and it was in the $150 range. So bottom line is I was charged $1350 for about 1.5 hours onsite and maybe about 3 hours of travel for both trips. Do the math and if you charge travel at full rate, I paid about $300 per hour. The way I understand this industry, the techs are given the leeway to charge as much as they believe they can get. Big sell for cleaning ducts, installing surge suppressors etc. I don't personally believe this is ethical and they apparently don't care about winning a permanent customer. I would not use them again because I'm looking for a vendor that doesn't lie and bullshit and upfront tells you an hourly rate. Most people shudder at $200 an hour but when I hear that at least I understand what I'm getting. read more
