Killen Mechanical has completed several projects for us and has been consistently excellent. Killen Mechanical has completed several projects for us and has been consistently excellent. Very creative and smart when it comes to solving problems, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure the job is done right. Pricing has been very fair, and the level of service is even better. Responsive, professional, and easy to work with. He was also the only company that was able to properly install a Fujitsu mini split in a theater room for us. The system is incredibly quiet and keeps the room at the exact temperature all the time, which is not easy to pull off in a theater environment. After working with him multiple times, he'll be my first call going forward. read more

We came back from a weekend away to find our Condenser not working. It took Josh 20 minutes to find the problem and make the fix. Appreciate his quick, professional approach. Thank you Josh. Will be waiting for a new heat pump quote. Will let you know our outcome..... read more

This small, local business delivered a truly exceptional customer experience! From start to finish, I was thoroughly impressed. Josh, the owner was knowledgeable, patiently answering all my questions and demonstrated a deep understanding of the problem and the solution. I felt like a valued individual, not just another transaction. Recommend Killen Mechanical over all the HVAC service brands that spend on advertising and need to upsell unnecessary repairs to pay back for their marketing spend. read more

Josh and his team did a great job repairing our AC. The AC is working great now. Very knowledgeable and excellent communication. We would highly recommend them. read more

Josh and his crew were great! Last week we removed an AC/heater unit that was installed on our roof by another local vendor in 2016. We elected to install a Fujitsu heat pump on the ground and replace all of our ductwork. Josh was very professional and answered all of our initial questions. He did not try to sell us a system and a VIP package like the initial vendor did. Furthermore he didn't try to cross sell everything he could do. I actually stopped taking advantage of the yearly VIP maintenance from the initial vendor because I knew another sales pitch was coming. Thank you Josh, Dillon, Jim, Jesus and Elia you were very professional and personable. The price was very reasonable and competitive. Josh and crew were always on time and very reliable. If you need AC and heating needs give Josh a call! Highly recommend this business!! read more

Great services, owner Josh and his crew pay attention to detail and very respectful towards my family. We had a newborn in the house and they were super clean and I did not hear a single bad word come out of their mouth. read more

We wanted to explore improving our AC and getting a ductless system. Josh looked at our existing system offered a few solutions and even tuned up our current AC on the spot. Our outdated system runs better and Josh gave honest insight into my options. Hard to find people with integrity these days. Killen has it. read more

You wont find a more fair and professional contractor. Josh and his crew were extremely efficient, there was never any sort of pressure to buy and never any upcharge or post-install service plans like so many other companies. He does really nice clean work and does what's necessary. He cares about his people and his clients and his work ethic is exceptional. He sources his materials from local supply houses and works to support local businesses. read more

Josh came to us as a referral. We are beyond thankful. Right in the middle of the horrible heatwave we had issues with our AC. Josh made it out asap and diagnosed our issue, then fixed it quickly. He didn't waste any time. He was very efficient and thorough. Definitely our go to guy! He responds right away and is very knowledgeable. We give 10 stars if possible read more

Josh is reliable and excellent with service. When another contractor told me I'd be looking at between $11-13,000 for a new AC, Josh came over and serviced it for under $700. It's now in fine working condition. He is quick to reply and get to the home to see what the issue is. I'm grateful for his recommendation. Josh is someone I would buy a new AC from if I needed one. Thank you, Josh. Judy N 6/2024 read more

Josh is a phenomenal guy - great at his job and extremely thorough. When I commented on how imbalanced the airflow is in my house, rather than just suggest adding a register (as another company did) he pointed out that what was really needed was additional returns to better move air around the rooms that weren't getting it. He was thoughtful at coming up with a solution, and during the course of the job, had to be a bit creative when the first idea didn't work out. His quote was extremely competitive - equivalent monetarily, but including significantly more work. He and Jose did great work, and I am super happy with the airflow in our house (and oh, the AC is great too). Highly recommended. read more

What a fantastic Company! highly recommend Killen Mechanical! Josh was a dream to work with. He explained what was wrong and options on how to proceed and repair! Pricing was also very fair! Service was speedy and I will use again if I need further service! read more

I can't say enough about Josh Killen and his crew Darrius and Jesus. Josh was easy to work with and thorough. He was great at explaining the estimate and questions, and we never felt rushed. He provided a number of options for our HVAC system and helped us pick the best option for our budget. Everyone was polite and prompt in getting the job done. They replaced our 30yr old HVAC system and we're very happy with the results. read more

Killen mechanical - Our new Coleman condenser. - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - Livermore, California

I don't think there is enough room here to tell you how amazing this company is! Josh and his team are the best of the best! You won't find a company with as much integrity and passion as Killen Mechanical! My husband and I have lived in our current home for 11 years and have dealt with an HVAC system that never worked right. The air would be blowing hard in one room and hardly at all in another room. We also had dust issues and could always smell the attic. We would have to run it all day to get to a desired temperature, but still never felt right. We figured it was because we had a really old system. When Josh came in and looked at our system he quickly saw what was wrong and got excited about fixing it because he knew he could make it so much better. Josh and team came in and re worked and replaced our ducting so it was more efficient and also tuned up the unit. Now all said and done, we can't believe this is the same old system. It works like a new HVAC system. All the rooms blow the same amount of air and it actually heats and cools our home without having to run it all day. Such a peace of mind knowing my family is breathing clean air and we aren't throwing money away with our gas and electric bill anymore. Josh and his team are so great to work with. So courteous and a pleasure to have in my home. I HIGHLY recommend Killen Mechanical! Thanks so much Josh! We are so happy :) read more

Josh is the best! Best customer service and communication. They went above and beyond when replacing our HVAC unit. I highly recommend this company!!! read more

Wonderful customer service! As a new homeowner I'm totally ignorant to how my HVAC functions. I spoke with Josh on the phone and he very kindly walked me though my system and how it functions and put my mind at ease over some concerns that I have. He offered some quick adjustments that can be made prior to larger repairs since there are some issues with the system. I'm so thankful! I very much so appreciated his expertise and ability to clearly communicate over the phone. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. I felt so much better after speaking with him and can honestly say that's the best customer service I've experienced in quite some time. read more

It's tough to find honest and experienced AC repair companies. I really lucked out in finding Josh @ Killen Mechanical. He was prompt in providing a quote and he stuck to it! Whereas other AC repair companies immediately tried to sell us an entirely new system with new electrical or made some ethically questionable recommendations, Josh worked hard to keep our costs reasonable and was always giving me the straight scoop. When the problem proved to be more than a compressor leak which was the original issue, Josh spent a great deal of time pressure testing the other components, even though it created delays for his other scheduled jobs. He also dealt with a dent in the new AC unit without making me fret one bit-- going to the dealer the next morning and switching it out for a good one. He was really good about explaining everything as he went so I was 100% comfortable with his work. You can tell he has years of experience under his belt and takes great pride in his work. At the end of the day, Killen Mechanical delivered five star service at a very reasonable price. I always felt that Killen Mechanical was going above and beyond in their work and I would not hesitate to use them for any future HVAC needs. Josh has incredible integrity and work ethic and he's a great individual. You would be making a mistake in choosing somebody else for AC work. read more

My wife found Killen Mechanical though Nextdoor originally. I had an issue with the breaker tripping and wanted it taken care of before the heat of summer. They can out, inspected everything and replaced the breaker without trying to upsell. I highly recommend and support this small business. read more

I was told I had a refrigerant leak and since our A/C system was so old the only option was to replace it. I got 2 quotes from 2 companies: one for 15k, the other for double that. Then I called Josh. He came to the house for what I thought would be an analysis and like magic within minutes the A/C turned on! No refrigerant leak at all. I so appreciate his honesty and his amazing craftsmanship. He really know's his HVAC! His price was so fair, in the low hundreds not the 10s of thousands. I couldn't be happier. Thank you Josh. read more

Great experience! I Can't begin to express how thankful I am for the great customer service and honest feedback about my outdated AC system. Josh was easy to work with and got my AC back up and running quickly! Highly recomended!! read more

Josh is an honest, hard working person who runs a high quality business. When he first stopped by to provide an initial assessment of my old 30 year old HVAC system which stopped working, he provided a straight forward assessment of my options, which he explained would be driven by how long I planned on staying in the house. He didn't want me to install anything that he felt wouldn't be beneficial to me in the long run. And he explained everything to me in a way that didn't use the normal sales pitch I got from some other HVAC companies, but instead explained the options to me in a clear, easily understandable manner that put me at ease. Ultimately, I decided to go with a super efficient Fujitsu air stage VRF all electric HVAC system that has helped lower my utility bills and works quite well. Throughout the installation process which took two weeks, I appreciated Josh's attention to detail and how he would walk me through all aspects of the job. His key focus was to make us as comfortable as possible in our house and replaced vent locations accordingly. He even replaced all of my old air vent grates (even for the ones that weren't relocated) with new ones. His team worked quickly and cleaned up and vacuumed after every work day. I highly recommend Killen Mechanical, can't go wrong here! read more

We bought an 80 year old house and needed to replace our duct system due to asbestos concerns. Josh and his team from Killen Mechanical came to the rescue. We opted to install AC and Josh recommended an all electric inverter system that allows us to run heat and AC completely electric. His team was incredibly professional, the ductwork is great and having AC really changed our lives and added to our home value. Thanks Josh and team for a quick and professional install and for your support along the way. We recommended to our friends in Hayward and they used Killen and were very happy and impressed as well. read more

Josh was extremely professional, experienced and very knowledgeable. The problem was solved and we were so happy and impressed with their work. I definitely recommend Killen Mechanical! You can count on them! read more

Called Josh , wasn't sure what problem was with AC unit , he visited the same day and diagnosed the problem. Good news I did not need a new AC unit just a couple simple parts he fixed it & got my AC running with in 1hr. I believe Josh saved me a lot of money because I called another company and they said I needed a new Air Condition and they weren't sure when they could get out there to install. That's when I went online and found Killen mechanical out of Livermore. read more

I enthusiastically recommend Killen Mechanical. Last year Josh Killen re-engineered and replaced all my underfloor HVAC ducting which made a HUGE increase in the airflow coming out of my vents and dramatically increased the performance of the furnace and air conditioner. This year my old air conditioner failed so I had him replace and upgrade the air conditioner and coil. On both service occasions Josh gave me a very fair quote, beating the competition. He arrived on time, diligently got the work done and cleaned up when done. His communication skills are exceptional and he clearly is very experienced. I have recommended Killen Mechanical to 2 of my neighbors and both neighbors are extremely pleased with his work. I don't think you can go wrong meeting Josh, listening to his recommendations and asking for a quote. read more
