Apprently…read morewe had the HVAC problem from hell, worse than we imagined. we are so fortunate we found Temp Rise. Mike took the time to carefully put together quite the complicated plan that I do not think anyone else could have done at this level of expertise. Temp Rise took on this project with promise they would get us taken care of for long term, and they more than delivered. What they pulled off is an art and we are so appreciative that the team was willing to help us out at a competitive price. We now know our home is that much better and things are done the right way. We will never go to anyone but Temp Tose again for any services. We can't recommend them enough. They took the impossible and made it possible for us. Do not hesitate when it comes to your HVAC needs, reach out to Temp Riise. Thank you to everyone on the team!

The initial installation of our heating system was done well and was satisfied at first. However,…read moreabout 11 months later the system began having repeated issues. Heating would be shut off during blistering cold days. This company came out repeatedly (about every other week) insisting it was an electrical problem. Eventually, I called another HVAC company to take a look and they were able to properly diagnose and fix the issue. Turns out it was just a faulty igniter all along. Ended up spending $300 instead of $1500 on new electrical that didn't need to be fixed. Disappointed with the repeated misdiagnosis and wasted time.

Half never got back to me, the others gave me prices all over the map. I chose Chilli Willie for a handful of reasons: 1. They got back to me immediately, made an appt, and showed up on time. 2. They weren't the cheapest nor the most expensive. They clearly explained what needed to be done and quoted a fair price. 3. Their staffpeople were AWESOME, super-respectful about wearing masks, taking care of the premises, and always being on-time. After they installed it, they stayed in touch, came back to inspect the boiler, and gave me maintenance instructions. And lastly, Steve and Jared, the owners, are just plain nice people.

Eric is fantastic. He was recommended by my in-laws when we bought a new house…read more He completely rewired our (very old) new home this Spring and did a great job. He takes the time to explain what he is doing and presents you with options for next steps. He just came back today to fix some faulty wiring that a non-electrician contractor completed during a renovation without our knowledge. He answered our call on Saturday and was here by Monday morning. We are happy to pay for quality work that we know will be safe and will last done by a professional that we can trust. Anyone commenting on prices should realize that electrical work is not an area to skimp on. Also, Eric is just a genuinely nice guy and easy to work with.

I've never left a negative review before, but I feel morally obligated to share my experience so…read moreothers considering mini-split installations can be warned. From the start, the installation process was riddled with problems. Rather than detailing each issue (which the company would likely try to excuse, as they did every time I raised concerns), I'm posting pictures so you can judge for yourself. I strongly recommend getting everything in writing--many verbal guarantees I received were completely disregarded. For example, instead of floor units in my kids' bedrooms, I was given ceiling units, one of which is positioned so low it practically touches my son while he sleeps. Now, as I'm finishing my basement, I had a friend who works in HVAC assess the mess Earth Tech left behind. He estimated it would take 3-4 days and cost around $3,000 to fix. He also explained the risks associated with their work: pipes joined in the middle are prone to future leaks, especially when unsupported, as stress on the joints increases the likelihood of failure. With so many joints, locating a leak would be nearly impossible. Shockingly, much of the system is held together with duct tape. While this may last through their warranty period, it's clear the entire system was designed to last just long enough to shift the responsibility of repairs onto the customer.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY…read more We hired 781 Plumbing to fix a toilet but the problem was not properly diagnosed or fixed. We ended up with a $6200 water bill (~10x our normal bill). We ended up asking a technician from the city to detect the problem since we thought it might be an error on their part. All it took was a new flapper to fix the problem. Since it was such a simple fix, we decided to check if Viacheslav Vlasov (owner of 781 Plumbing) is properly licensed. He is not. Not only did his license expired in May 2016, he was only an Apprentice Plumber, which would require the supervision of Journeyman Plumber or Master Plumber. We will be taking legal action against him.

My son was being taken out by ambulance, and I asked him if he could wait a second; I was having an emergency. He insisted that I sign it and asked him to wait on the porch until they could get my son out. He tore up the paperwork and implied he didn't need this drama. I called the office and spoke with the owner, and he explained that he sent the same man as before and how ignorant and rude he was during what was happening. The owner said this was to much drama, call another plumber. I am reporting them to the Better Business Bureau.

They installed a Heat Pump System in my Condo Unit Sometime late August of this year, 2017. The Heating portion to be used only as a back up/ secondary system. After Installation, the System was tested for AC only. As explained to me, my Primary Oil radiated Hot Water would not kick in due to the time of year. I attempt to turn the heat on, as the cold weather has set in. The primary system will not turn on (at all). I attempted to contact Ritch Tierney HVAC multiple times via phone, text, and email. They finally responded, twice. The first to say they were coming over, the second to postpone and reschedule. I haven't heard from them since. I have asked the MA Dept. Of Consumer Affairs, as well as the BBB for help with this matter, to no avail. Ritch Tierney has been given ample opportunity to make good. Not only have they not responded to my emergency request, as my family and I are using other sources for heat. My understanding is that to date they have not responded to Consumer Affairs nor BBB. I sincerely did not expect this business to not honor our contract and be just a collect ($) and retrieve establishment. If this is how the treat their customers, particularly on the very first service call, this is definitely a business that one has to stay away from!!

The tech was paid $275 for the appointment and down payment on the part. He has not returned with the new part or the old part, the HVAC is not functioning and Ritch Tierney HVAC Specialists will not return call, texts or e-mails. Portable space heaters are being used during these cold winter days and nights, just to make the condo bearable to live in. These are bad people from a bad company providing bad (no) solutions to a dire heating problem. I wish I could give them negative stars as 1 star is way too good. BEWARE!!!
