I'd recommend you give these folks a try.

The person with whom I spoke understood how dangerous of a situation this was and a service person was scheduled that day. 2nd call was for electrical work--not urgent but they happened to be able to squeeze me in on the same day which was probably rare but amazing! Best parts of this experience: 1. Friendly and empathic front team who got me scheduled ASAP. 2. Text prior to the service person's arrival with their pic and some info to help personalize this 'stranger' 3. The service people themselves--extremely competent, focused, and very personable. I only wish they serviced commercial properties so I could have them out to my business!

I used to love this company. We purchased a service contract with them because of their outstanding…read morecustomer service and the positive experiences we had with their technicians. Unfortunately, without any notification to existing customers, the company was sold to ABC Heating. I had a maintenance appointment scheduled months ago for today between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. No one called or texted to let me know the technician was running late. When I called, I was met with an AI phone system. After repeatedly asking to speak with a real person, I finally reached someone, but she couldn't provide any information because dispatch wasn't responding to her either. As I write this, I'm still waiting for my technician to arrive. The excellent customer service was the main reason I chose this company and purchased a service contract. This experience has been extremely disappointing. At a minimum, current contract customers should have been notified that the company had been sold and reassured that service would continue without disruption. Based on this experience, I can no longer recommend this company.

Review for the electrical:…read more Hometown is not the least expensive. However, scheduling seemed to be fair easier with them than any other, and Shawn (the electrician that was dispatched) was a pleasure to work with, even trying to help troubleshoot a related situation (not specific to his work). Where can they improve? That's easy... 1. Clearly, you price based on the service as you should. Some tasks though should not warrant such a premium. Consider coming down about 20%. 2. The sales process - basically everything before getting an expert out - is not optimal if you're someone who knows what needs to get done and just needs "the smart one" to show up and do an assessment. There wasn't pressure; just needless extra steps. 3. I will have to make some adjustments due to observations after Shawn left; it's not his fault specifically, the home had some wonky wiring and the install had some very picky requirements where the use case is going to warrant some changes. Due to the high premium, I can't justify having him back out like I normally would. Ultimately, for electrical, do I recommend? Yes. I just think they have opportunities to improve.

When at our home Vinny apologized for setting the bottom drawer of the freezer on our new kitchen floors and then in an email requesting some type if reconciliation he became unprofessional. He was yelling at my husband about his own lack of preparation from the emailed communication with details of what was broken and then verbally attacked him. The lack of accountability and not showing up or responding when our fridge and freezer continued to become more broken with each visit in hopes of making it right was frustrating. We went from a leak under our freezer to needing a new fridge. This process has left us without a working fridge since May 13 and now we need to shop for one and get it delivered / installed.

Ordered a 2-stage Goodman furnace with ductwork (moving the unit more central to better distribute…read morethe load to rooms) and later decided to add on a humidifier on the supply side. Prices are generally lower than the competition overall, no issues there. Briar (the one that does the quote) was polite. No problem there. But the installation had issues. First, they promised "Next Day Install" - but when the tech showed up he said they were out of stock of the unit. Which means another day's delay. It's one day, I wasn't sweating it, but they shouldn't advertise something they can't deliver. Tech does a walk through and says, quote, "yep, pretty straightforward, should be easy." Well, it wasn't. Should have been, but wasn't. It took the installer basically two full days to complete the work and by the near end, he was clearly rushing and frustrated over points he was getting stuck at. I offered to help with the ducting (he basically cut it to the wrong size. Not sure how that happened and why he didn't just cut a larger piece because he had tons of spare material, but I digress), and he said, quote, "you can't help me with this." (it's just pulling back the existing trunk a bit so he could fit his piece in. It's on hangars and he only needed a half an inch. This was his ego getting in the way, so he made himself struggle for 30 minutes rather than accept help from the homeowner.) PVC not properly glued ( and as a result the combustion pipe was loose and rotating outside), ductwork not installed straight, loose wiring hanging, A/C not reconnected, bare basic done on the humidifier water line, sloppy sealant, gaps not taped over, unclean runs, etc. By the end of day 1 I had basic furnace use, but he hadn't done any of the duct work. Day 1 was just the basic furnace itself. Day 2 he didn't install new hangers until I called him out, and the section he aded is not straight. They neglected to tell the electrician about the outlet/switch box on the side (if you're going to install a new furnace, that's kind of a given that you need to leave things the way they were). I paid the guy out of pocket because it wasn't fair to him, but basically Huffman dropped the ball on him. I was on the verge of giving them the water heater business but it took Briar too long to reply with the quote so I gave it to the plumber that installed the copper lines. That plumber is who identified the PVC issue, and even fixed it for free since they were working near it anyway. They also redid his water line connection from a needle valve punctured into the existing hot line, hanging under the joists (has not been code compliant for years) to a proper quarter turn shutoff valve from a new pipe branch that rises above the joist line. The plumber had to do a new gas line for his work just like Huffman had to do a new line for theirs, and the plumber's work is much cleaner than Huffman's installer. Huffman's line is not in any way attached to joists or walls or anything, just suspended midair, while the plumber made sure to do J-hooks and properly secure the gas line; then add a second shutoff valve upstream. When I reported the install issues with Briar he never replied, but the installer came back out and at least corrected the A/C not being plugged in. But neither could tell me about the permit or inspection - which implies they didn't request either. A huge problem if they didn't. Bottom line: if you just want the cheapest price, Huffman is absolutely it. And Goodman is a good brand. It's a quiet unit, it's a powerful unit that completely resolved my issues with inconsistent upstairs performance vs. downstairs, with a significantly quieter blower for the return vents. I have nothing but good things to say about the unit so far. However...if you're one of those homeowners that want quality, or you care about the visual of the install, or code compliance, or efficiency/speed, or accuracy of cuts...look elsewhere.
