He came out and within less than twenty minutes had fixed the problem ( no crawl space needed).

I will definitely call him for future work. You get what you pay for!! He is a veteran as am I and I was glad to give him my business.

A couple of weeks ago my mom's heater stopped working (well, it was still blowing air, but it was…read morecold - not what I would call useful). She lives in Redding (nowhere near me) and I know next to nothing about what to do with these problems. Luckily I remembered grabbing a business card from the owner of Essex Heating and Air Conditioning (Greg Unger) at a Home & Garden event my mom and I went to awhile back. I called them to see if they could help and they were able to setup an appointment later that day! I obviously wasn't there, but my mom tells me that a very nice technician came out and fixed the heater quite quickly. I am so thankful that it all went so smoothly - sending a stranger out to my mom's house isn't something I like doing, especially when I don't know much about them, but I'm glad we took the chance. They were upfront with my mom about the costs before doing any repairs and the speediness and customer service were really appreciated. I would definitely recommend calling Essex if you need help with heating or air conditioning - they were so fast, friendly and honest.

Phil has worked at my house twice in Santa Cruz. First time changed out 3 ceiling lights to LED.

I had no idea it could be fixed so quickly. I highly recommend Phil. :)

My house had been in need of multiple electrical repairs for years. Jeremy was wonderful to work…read morewith, he offered a free consultation and walk through of the house to identify all the issues I needed help with. The work was done promptly, professionally and very neatly. After each project the only proof he had been at the house at all was the functioning lights. :) If there were anything he came across during his work which we hadn't discussed, he quickly informed me and reviewed my options so that I could make informed decisions. He was able to newly wire and install a ceiling fan/light in my living room, rewire a bedroom light switch to ceiling fan/light that had not worked for years, fix outlets which had no power, rewire my garage outdoor lights, and add a switch for operation, and rewire a non-functional switch to control an outlet (among other things I'm sure I forgot) all within a couple of days. I highly recommend his services to anyone needing a competent, kind and trustworthy electrician, in fact I have already hired him for my next project...outdoor outlet for my waterfall with an inside switch.

Definitely a great experience. Thanks Greg!

Regarding Cami -- in my opinion, she is not trustworthy and seems more interested in making easy money. On the other hand, I've had Justin and his helper at my home on several occasions, and they've always been professional, reliable, and friendly. They arrive on time, communicate clearly throughout the job, and take the time to review the plan before starting. For example, this morning they arrived promptly at 9:00 a.m. We went over where the window covers should be installed, and Justin handled everything with great professionalism. I appreciate their honesty and the quality of their work. I highly recommend Justin for any and all project you may have. Thanks again Justin for helping me with my forever home. Always, Yolanda
