TJ didn't try to sell a new system or overbill on repairs. Instead, he looked at the system, diagnosed the problem, and explained how to be a good AC owner. Knowledgeable, professional, and truly local. Highly recommended! read more

I found TJ to be extremely responsive, knowledgeable and honest. He wrestled with my 34-year-old(!) HVAC system that was, in hindsight, truly beyond repair. Along the way he gave me great advice about how to select a new contractor and how to maintain a future system. I appreciated his patience, his eagerness to help and his experience-based recommendations on next steps. I would highly recommend working with TJ. He's great! read more

TJ is the man. Showed up just a few hours after I contacted him on a triple digit day. Figured out the problem and fixed my AC. Also gave good instruction on cleaning the air conditioner. Very reasonable price and really nice guy. I recommend him highly. read more

Our heater went out last week. There are babies in the house, so we needed something quick. TJ sent his serviceman to the house within a few hours of the call. He provided a fair priced solution and a longer term solution to an outside company. We chose to get the long term fix, but appreciated TJs communication, speed of service and honest assessment of the problem. He even offered to temporarily provide space heaters until we could get our own!! TJ will definitely be on our trusted provider list! read more

TJ responded so quickly. My daughter found a leak under my sink at 1am and I got on yelp to find a plumber near me for the next morning, and he responded almost immediately. He came out the same day, and replaced my garbage disposal and did a great job! I bought the disposal myself to help save time, and it worked out perfectly. Thanks TJ! read more

My heater was not working. TJ diagnosed, identified the source of the problem (small hose with holes), and fixed it. TJ explained how to maintain and troubleshoot the heating unit, and also identified a leak in the duct work. I highly recommend TJ, as he was very thorough and knowledgeable and dedicated to fixing our heating and air issues, and at reasonable rates read more

I reached out to have my HVAC system inspected and serviced. Nothing was specifically wrong, but the unit is 17 years old and I'm growing concerned that it may need replacing in the near future. TJ came out, inspected everything for me, walked me through how to perform routine maintenance on it myself to keep in shape throughout the year, and gave it a clean bill of health. Gave me some tips to understand what issues may occur in the future which truly might warrant a replacement vs those that would just need a repair, so I could spot the service people that just want to sell me a new unit regardless of the issue. I'll always go into things like this incredibly skeptical, but in this case, never met someone so friendly and honest. Can't recommend enough! read more

This review is for work TJ Robb did for my parents, who live in Davis. Over a year ago they had an issue with their shower. They called a local plumber who came out but said they would need to break through the wall to fix it. They didn't want to do that since it would have been very hard for them to find replacement tiles and the quote to do the work was very high. Just last week they had an issue with their toilet. I found TJ Robb through Yelp and saw the good reviews so I gave them his number. He came out and fixed the toilet and the shower. They are beyond happy with the work he did. They said "he was not only great, he was fantastic." When I talk to them days later they still bring it up. They highly recommend him and would use him again. TJ Robb, thank you for your help!!! read more

USE AGAIN: He fixed the problem promptly and had a reasonable charge.

TJ answered my request very quickly and gave me an estimate to fill Freon and leak sealant. The price is so fair. I know that because a few weeks before I was just paying 5 times higher price to a company for filling Freon and leaking inspection. Fortunately I canceled the order and called TJ who came the next day and did a very professional job. I am so lucky to have the good will and capable local contractor as TJ. Thank you! read more

I really appreciated the work that TJ did for me, which included investigating a fan that stopped working, investigating the smoke alarms that were going off, and investigating the light bulbs acting funny. He hurt his leg/back so he wasn't able to go into the attic, but he was very knowledgable and got a lot done in a short hour. The cost was $110, which seemed reasonable. read more

Although there was a schedule by conflict, TJ gave me good advice and the situation was resolved. He is just a honest and warm hearted person. Will go back if scheduling works next time read more

Had TJ come out to do a heater inspection and maintenance before the winter season arrived. TJ took the time to educate me on the basics of my heater and even gave advice on how to save money! He is honest and knowledgeable. read more

We called TJ Robb because our refrigerator delivery man told us that the valve behind our refrigerator was rusted and needed to be repaired before they could unhook the old fridge and install the new one. TJ came by and told us that the valve was just stuck, and didn't actually need to be replaced. He was here for fewer than 10 minutes. He charged us $100. While I appreciate not doing unnecessary work, I thought the price for such a short visit, and no plumbing work, was a bit shocking. read more

If I could give ten stars instead of five, I would. TJ is an HONEST man that you can trust!! Before finding him, I had my AC unit inspected by three other companies in the Davis/Sacramento area, and they all suggested a replacement which would have cost me thousands of dollars. TJ diagnosed my AC and said I only needed the capacitor replaced... My AC works fine and so thankful for him! read more

On a 110 degree Saturday evening, when my house was nearing 90 degrees, I was fortunate enough to make the right call to TJ. He picked up on the first ring and quickly came to the rescue of me and my three pups. I was so impressed with his compassion, his kindness, and his knowledge of A/Cs. He happened to have the correct part on hand and was able to get my A/C up and running within an hour. I will be forever grateful for his speedy response, calm demeanor, and willingness to help. Thank you TJ! read more

Thanks to Danielle S review yesterday I phoned Yolo Repairmaster on a Sunday to fix our AC. TJ came out at the time he said he would and fixed the air conditioner within 30 minutes. No upselling and gave helpful advice on how to improve the longevity of our AC. I have no reservations in recommending Yolo Repairmaster to others, in fact I have already shared our experience with friends. read more

Our AC stopped working called a few people got the quickest response from TJ, not only that he also gave me some quick tips to avoid having to pay for him to come out and save some money. He ended up coming out same day (happened to be Labor Day) and was able to get everything up and going for us through the entire interaction was friendly, informative, and quick. Cherry on top for me was he called today a few days later to make sure everything was still working good. Couldn't recommend him enough. read more

TJ installed a complete home central AC/heating unit for a great price, significantly lower than other quotes. That was a few years ago and it continues to work perfectly. Thank you TJ, I really appreciate it read more

I wish I had picked Eric Duarte's recommendation from day one. After seeing all these AC contractor names from our nice NextDoor app neighbors, I decided to call Woodland Air. The owner sent his son to look at my AC as he himself was running late on Friday afternoon. His son decided that my capacitor was dead but couldn't fix the issue. So he came back with his dad the following morning. I told the owner that I didn't believe my capacitor was dead and that it must have been Freon leaks, and I wanted him to retest my capacitor. He did and found it to be in working condition so he installed it back. He pumped nitrogen gas in to test leaks and found that the suction service valve was leaking. He told me that it's best to call Blake's as they are a Lennox dealer. Ron and his son were professional and honest, although they couldn't fix my AC. He didn't charge me any money and left. I then call Blake's on Monday. They sent a tech to check my AC on Tuesday afternoon. I told him Woodland Air had found the valve to be leaking and he checked and agreed. He told me that the valve must have been ruined as it looked like the valve /copper pipe was not welded properly. He told me I needed a brand new valve and recharge Freon. I received a quote the next day for $1273.17. Blake's refused to breakdown the material, parts, labor and tax costs. The Blake's tech was in my property for only 20 minutes and I was charged $95 for his diagnostic visit! Although I didn't think he did much as I already told him what happened. I really couldn't believe that the valve was damaged due to the over-heated welding process. If it was so, what about the Lennar home warranty? What happened to the previous owner who lived in this house for 7 years? Also, when we purchased this house in 9/2021, the home inspector reported that the AC worked satisfactorily. With that doubt in mind, I called TJ Robb yesterday (Thursday). TJ came around 4:45pm, and fixed the valve and charged 6 lbs of Freon and left around 7pm. In between he had to go back home to get one of his tool to open the valve. He charged me $320 and my AC started running and the whole house was cooled to 75F by 7pm before he left! TJ was very skilled and knowledgeable and very efficient in what he was doing. He basically found the issue and fix it within a few minutes. He was a straightforward and no-nonsense kind of guy. He was honest and kind with a great passion to help his client. He even came back the following day to make sure my AC was running properly. I strongly recommend TJ to anyone who has AC issues. I already recommended TJ to our friends and relatives and we will definitely call him for future needs. read more

TJ was fabulous - had him come out to do some diagnostics and much overdue maintenance on our A/C system. He got back to me shortly after I called him, and it was easy to set up an appointment. When he got here he walked me through the entire diagnostics process - we talked sub-cooling, refrigerant phase changes & latent heat, all the things! I almost feel like an HVAC technician now! After a much needed pound of freon, it's running ice cold! Oh, and he even figured out that the fuses to the compressor and fan weren't to spec, which I hadn't even bothered to check. I'll definitely be bringing TJ back for a recheck in the spring, and recommending him to all my friends! read more

TJ Robb was punctual, professional and proficient! Absolutely NO issues with the company. I had replaced our AC capacitor last year because the fan wasn't running when the AC turned on. I'm somewhat electrically inclined so I did a little research and was able to fix the problem then. This year every time the AC kicked on it would run for about 6-7 minutes, shut off while making an audible buzzing sound for about 2 seconds and kick back on. I was done, I had other projects going and I didn't want to deal with it. So I outsourced the project. I found that TJ was highly recommended so I reached out. He came during the window he said and within seconds of opening the Air conditioners electrical panel found a burned wire out in the open, I felt like a jacka$$ for not checking but that's on me. He quickly replaced the wire and, thankfully, only charged me the consultation fee, which I greatly appreciate. The whole maintenance lasted no more than 20 minutes (by the way I also replaced my filter like you suggested) and the AC is running great. TJ Robb took care of my problem and was very timely about it. He even suggested I could reach out if I had further issues. I would definitely recommend this company and am willing to use them in the future. read more

I should have written this last year when TJ came out on a Sunday, as I remember, to clear our kitchen drain line. He explained in advance that rates would be higher for the weekend, but we decided we needed the kitchen... He was quick to respond and got it cleared in no time. Then I woke up this morning and couldn't get the heater to light. After fooling around with it for an hour or so, I called TJ again. When he returned my call, he said he could be here between 3:30 and 5:00. Damn, I thought, we will be frozen through by 5:00. When he showed up at 3:40, I bit my tongue. He figured out and solved the problem in less than 20 minutes! What a guy, what service, what knowledge! He makes me thankful to shop local whenever possible. They deserve each 5-star rating they get!!! read more

TJ is awesome, my gas wall furnace was down in one of my rental properties and he sent someone immediately. He was responsive on text, the job was completed right away, he was very good and honest on pricing. I asked another company to give me and quote and it was over $600!!! This didnt seem right so I rang TJ, the job was done for under $200. Just today I had a problem with my HVAC, I text TJ on Saturday evening 6pm, he replied right away with some possible solutions. I tried them and now I have heating again. He didn't charge me, this guy is amazing! Definitely 5 stars. read more

TJ did something that it seems no other contractor is capable of, returned a phone call. He also did another miracle - explained the scope of the work he could do and what he couldn't. I didn't use him for my electrical work, I still need an electrician for that, but he came back to help with a plumbing issue and it was done quickly, smoothly and correctly. 5 stars. read more

TJ is like having your grandpa come over and fix things. Trustworthy, honest, dependable, reliable, consistent. Results meet or exceed expectations. Stop looking, and send him a message now. Your troubles will be over shortly! read more

We got our AC fixed, changed the capacitor. We appreciate the high quality work and the fast response time.

TJ is the best and most honest AC repairman I have ever met. He came three times to fix what was wrong with our AC and found the problem and fixed it for a really affordable price! The other companies were trying to talk us into getting a new AC unit with them, but Dave was honest and helped us remedy the problem. He saved us at least 10K. I highly recommend TJ and will definitely call him again for future repairs! read more

Yolo County is not as big on "Yelp" compared to the Bay Area. So as a Landlord looking for a Handyman, Electrician, Plumber, etc. One can only use reviews, if there are no referrals or word of mouth to trust. I was looking for someone to fix a furnace at a property in Woodland. I first called a different company in Woodland w/ only 5 reviews, but had 5 stars. They did not do a very good job, b/c after their visit the furnace only worked for one day. Then, they tried to charge me for another visit to come back. How do I know they did not do the bare minimum, so that they would have to come back again?? I then called Home Depot, and b/c they do not have technicians to install furnaces, they use a third party. The third party is not very responsive, b/c I had to call and text multiple times to get information on my estimate. Once I got the estimate, I was told there were other problems he saw separate from the furnace, which in turn would add additional expenses. Definitely not going with them. Also I cross checked the third party with Yelp and they had mostly good reviews as well, but some bad said the same things about being unresponsive. Then I found TJ Robb. His name sounded familiar with an Electrician I used in Davis. After calling, it so happened TJ was the same person I used for a previous job. I had TJ go out to the home in Woodland and he was able to fix the furnace the RIGHT WAY! TJ was very responsive with phone calls, and his pricing is very fair. I do not know why I didn't think of TJ sooner and wasted money with other companies. Be careful when choosing a business. There are a lot of companies having their friends leave fake reviews to bolster their rating. You can tell in the Yolo County area b/c the small businesses do not receive many reviews. And the reviews that they do receive, the reviewers have only reviewed one or two places and their profile is bare. Those aren't real Yelpers. I realized the two previous businesses I mentioned above had some fake reviews. But TJ all his reviews on his page are real. Go with TJ Robb, he's a jack of all trades and has a wide array of skills. read more

TJ is FIVE STARS! He is responsive, prompt, does a great job, has a fair price, is nice, and multi-talented. There is no need to go to anyone else and if you do, you bad service at a much higher price! read more

Our AC went out and TJ replaced our unit. Great service, incredibly knowledgeable, timely, organized and no stress! We highly recommend them! read more

I liked his services on time and reasonable up front charges. TJ Robb repaired my water heater and walked me through my warranty. Explained in detail the problem on phone. I liked that he was always on time. Explained in detail the problem. I will use his services again. read more

I got on touch with TJ about a water heater that wouldn't light. He provided me with a lot of advise and a phone number to get the replacement part for free from the manufacturer. I was really in a rush to get the heater back up and running after 4 days of cold showers, so once the part arrived I immediately went back to TJ to schedule an installation. He was already booked for the day but offered to come the next day. I was quite desperate at this point so I attempted to install it myself, which took some time but worked well in the end. TJ provided some more safety tips over the phone - all without ever seeing a dime. I am very grateful for his generosity and will surely hire him the next time something brakes! read more

I called about an electric problem in our garage. TJ guided me through the solution and didn't even charge.

Gave TJ a call to fix a bathroom sink and he was able to schedule me in right away. Even though his schedule was really tight, he took the time and patience to fit me in and even went the extra mile to switch his appointments. His estimate was very fair priced and I was charged exactly what he gave me over the phone. I called several places in woodland, Davis and Sacramento and he gave me the best first impression. He called me back quickly and was friendly and professional. Four days after the sink was fixed, the backyard light wouldn't turn on and I called him again. He was nice enough to deal with scheduling the appointment with my tenants himself. I am not sure why there's so few reviews for TJ. I had great experience and definitely recommend him for any maintenance needed! read more

Using the Yelp messaging feature I reached out to a number of HVAC firms. Most were communicative, a few polite, one informative but what made TJ stand out was that he *CARED.* He was concerned that I (being in rural Yolo) might not have prompt access to service. That approach to life tells a lot about the character of a person and this is someone I think can be counted on. Thanks TJ, I appreciate the compassion. God bless. read more

The Most Respectable Person I know by far! Will save you money and won't waste your time. Over 40 years of helping the community. That's why he is number 1 with me. read more

I thought I could repair my heater furnace igniter myself. I called TJ to ask if I could buy the part from him. "you know, I am not a parts place" but he was willing to sell me the part. He warned me that the part was delicate and I could easily break it. After practicing with the old part, (glad I did), I realized I never would be able to get the part in there as the tolerance was next to impossible. I called him up and he came out that afternoon. Not only did he put the part in but he gave the old furnace a once over to make sure everything was going great. Truly, you do not get honest service like this anymore. This guy is a gem! read more

Outstanding service, really focuses on the needs of the client and makes alternative suggestions. Realibity and affordability couldn't be better. Would gladly recommend TJ. read more

It's Sunday morning, I just got home from a 72hr work shift and both toilets are clogged. I start a 96hr work shift tomorrow and my family needs this clog cleared. I called 3 different local 24-hour plumbers. All I got was voicemail and no return phone call, except for TJ. He answered my call and we agreed at a time after I got home from church. He arrived at the scheduled time and was very friendly and polite. He promptly began clearing the clog in our sewer line. He charged me a reasonable price and even stayed long enough to talk to the public works representative, on my behalf, about my sewer problem. I would recommend him for any of your plumbing needs. And a bonus, he does more than just plumbing. I definitely will keep him in my address book contacts. read more
