This company bought out the old family-owned company I had done business with for years, and…read moreunfortunately my experience since the transition has been very poor. I pay regularly and on time and am on both a fuel delivery contract and a service contract. Despite this, in previous years they failed to deliver oil and my home ran completely out. My boiler then had issues for nearly a year afterward. At another point, after a delivery, the exterior fill cap was not replaced, leaving the pipe open to the elements. This year, wanting to avoid another problem, I specifically requested delivery online more than a week ago because my tank was getting low. The estimated delivery day came and went with no oil. I then called and was told: "We couldn't get to you today, so we'll be there tomorrow." That day also came and went with no delivery. By this point my tank gauge was extremely low despite repeated proactive communication on my part to avoid exactly this situation. To Paraco's credit, after escalation they eventually delivered a small emergency amount late at night to help prevent a complete runout. However, the overall experience has been extremely stressful and has seriously damaged my confidence in the company's delivery reliability and communication. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend them.

I hired Valiant to put in an "underground" propane tank and generator. They sent several people to…read moretalk to me and each one contradicted the previous person. There was finally a decision and I was sent an estimate to sign. Part of the contract is that any damage done to the property is not their fault and I signed because I think this is pretty standard. All the the workers they sent were great, EXCEPT. it appears the quote I signed and paid for was not at all complete, so to dig the trench was another $2600.00. Then the surge protector was not added so that was another $650.00 These upcharges just kept coming. The Tank was NOT buried as I has asked, but is above the ground and a real eyesore. They willed the tank without asking my permission. The damage to the property is terrible and I have no way to repair it. The last people who came said they would check back, but I have never heard from them. I saved 20 years for this work and to have the mess, and all those up-charges has been terrible. The photos show some of the damage. Valiant said they would leave oil which they did not, they said they would come back and set up an App which they did NOT, they said they would contact me about an extended warranty which they did NOT. There were supposed to contact me about service and they did NOT. It was beena miserable experience. Now I have a generator which may or may not work I am out almost $30,000.. 20 years of saving.

I called my regular oil company and they said they could not come to my house until the following week.I called several other oil companies and got the same response. I finally got in touch with Best Oil. The woman that answered the phone was really nice, and understanding. Hearing in my voice that I was under the weather. She listened to my concerns and was the first person to offer to see what they could do for me. She put me on a brief hold and when she got back on the phone, she said she could have a truck out to me the following day!! I was so relieved. What was even better is the price per gallon was substantially less than my regular oil company (Price-Rite Oil...clearly not). There was one caveat, as a new customer of Best Oil, she said someone had to come in and look at the tank first. I told her that I was sick with the flu and didn't want to get anyone sick, plus, being sick, I really didn't want to be bothered with visitors and my dogs barking. She assured me that her driver is super friendly and it's just a quick inspection. And she was right. The driver showed up the next day as scheduled. He was very polite, professional and respectful. I showed him to the oil tank. He gave it a quick inspection and then was on his way. Needless to say, this is my new oil company moving forward. When every other oil company said no, Best Oil said yes. And gave me one less thing to worry about. Above all else, it really nice to deal with a company that displays professionalism and great customer service. Seems so hard to come by these days. Oh, one more thing. Every time PriteRite oil delivered oil to me, my house would smell like burnt diesel. With Best Oil, there was zero smell/fumes! Yet another reason why Best Oil was able to earn my trust and loyalty.

The original oil furnace in this circa 1988 home failed inspection this year due to a cracked heat exchanger coil and the release of CO into the 1 zone forced air heating. We had Glen Noble and his team in to evaluate our entire HVAC system. They came up with/installed a cost effective & energy efficient solution using a propane fired Navien Combi wall mounted boiler feeding a new hydro air heat exchanger and a new Heil 5 Ton central AC unit, augmented by 2 Mitsubishi mini-split HVAC units to overcome the single zone ductwork in this 2 story mid-century modern home. The job included planting a 500 gal propane tank in the ground, removal of the original oil tank, oil furnace, oil hot water heater, heat exchanger & A/C unit. We are very pleased with Glen/Ed & their team's work!
