My old steam boiler developed a…read morecracked heat exchanger, and Max Heating was prompt, informative, and willing to do the replacement during the New Year holiday. Dan and Sam have been stand-out with the depth of their answers to my questions. I appreciate that immensely as a demonstration of how much they care about the subject matter, and how much they care about ensuring I'm properly informed on what is happening. Sam and his crew were out all day yesterday dismantling the old boiler and installing the new one. They were friendly and engaged the whole time letting me observe the process. Sam called me over throughout to show me up close what had corroded in my old boiler, and to explain to me how it happened. He did the same during install of the new boiler to demonstrate all the critical aspects for maintenance--including letting me unscrew and rescrew a piece to practice for future cleaning. The new boiler is running smoothly right now. I feel like I understand its pieces. Sam even took an interest in diagnosing why my bathroom heating panel (which has never worked) wasn't heating. He cleaned out its vent and it has heat now. My cat is very happy to be warm right now. From the way Sam and his crew talked through all the aspects of the work they were doing, it was clear they take pride in the quality of the work. This wasn't just a job to get over and done with. And what's more, they did it for $2k cheaper than my competing quote. Max Heating and Cooling will be the first people I call for any plumbing projects I have going forward.

Their price was reasonable, the techs were super competent and nice. I highly recommend them!

Everyone near Waltham, MA should use Genove! I can't say enough good things about this company!…read moreOwned a home in Waltham with oil heat for almost 10 years and wish I found them sooner! Called them last year to perform yearly maintenance on an old oil tank and furnace in a crawlspace and they did great work and gave great advice! This is a business you can trust! This year when our furnace stopped working mid December: Called up Genove right away and they had someone out the same day to try and help us! We knew the furnace was on the last of its nine lives so Richie came and took a look and let us know our options! He's super knowledgeable and let us know about the Mass Rebate program to save us money! We chose to go with a new electric heat pump over just replacing the furnace because our air conditioning unit was older too and we wanted to get it all under control! This was a pretty big job that required them working in a crawlspace that you can't stand up all the way in which we are very grateful for their hard work! Richie and the rest of the guys showed up early worked with our schedule and really went above and beyond to fix our heating trouble! He also recommended a great electrician to upgrade our electrical panel and take care of the electrical components of the work! It was a seamless job and was great that both entities were familiar working with eachother! Everything ran so smoothly! Armando was great to work with in the office when it came to the proposal and payments as well as getting all of the information needed to submit the Mass Save rebate information after the work was complete! What should have been a very stressful situation quickly became a lot easier when dealing with these guys! They really know their stuff! They were able to get all of this work scheduled before the end of the year to help us out with the rebate and gave us a great heating system for the new year! Look no further for your next HVAC company! Hire these guys! Real people! Experienced! Super communicative! Hard working! They did everything they said they would do! Can't recommend them enough! Thanks Richie, Armando and Team!

He gave his honest opinions of what could be replaced and what the rough costs were for each component plus labor. He also explained what he thought was the best option to keep our current system running at it's best, which I chose to do. He re-gassed our unit and added a startup capacitor which seems to have done the trick! The outdoor unit kicks on easily, runs quiet and consistently now. And of course the AC blows ice cold now. He even gave recommendations for future maintenance for not only the AC unit but the boiler as well. I can't recommend Total Comfort Mechanical, and James, enough!

Recently I called upon LeBlanc Mechanical to investigate and correct a problem with my condo's HVAC…read moreunit. They were able to come out the following morning within the specified window which by itself is worthy of recognition. Professional, courteous and honest are three words I will use to describe the service provided by Leblanc. Between the in unit furnace/blower and the AC unit on the roof, I could have been looking at a very pricy fix or even a full unit replacement. However, the fix was actually pretty minor and inexpensive after giving a thorough testing evaluation. The tech's willingness to answer questions and make a recommendation for a fix that is working flawlessly the past couple of weeks makes me happy. Plus, the care he took in upgrading the thermostat as a last minute request of mine was outstanding. LeBlanc was initially recommended by my condo management company and I am now happy to say that I recommend their service for your routine or emergency HVAC needs. Thank you LeBlanc Mechanical for a job well done.

LeBlanc Mechanical are impossible to work with and I would not recommend them to anybody…read more I reached out to LeBlanc because my A/C isn't working. First they tried to push out my scheduled appointment by a week, claiming that they were dealing with a lot of "no A/C" calls and needed to reschedule routine maintenance calls. When I scheduled the appointment, I clearly told them that my A/C wasn't working - this wasn't a routine maintenance call! When they did come out, they determined that the condenser was broken and that I needed to update my system because it uses an old type of refrigerant. They were supposed to get back to me within a couple of days with a quote. It's been nearly a month now, during which I've called them several times to check on the status of the quote. Each time, they assure me that they'll get back to me within 1-2 days. Each time, they don't get back to me at all! To this day, I still haven't received a quote. If LeBlanc doesn't have the capacity to service my home, they should just tell me that. Giving me the run-around for nearly a month is incredibly unprofessional - especially when we're dealing with unprecedented temperatures and I'm trying to keep the house cool for my children. Whatever is going on over at LeBlanc, they clearly can't be relied upon and should be avoided in favor of other, more responsive companies.

First of all, they responded to my request super quickly, made their schedule available and…read moreflexible, that took our anxiety off our shoulders right away :) On the scheduled day, gentleman who's name is Andrey came for our rescue. He was communicative, on time, just a great person overall. He is also right on point, no bull. His diagnoses were thorough but quick, and he's got to work immediately. He found all the faulty jobs the previous contractor did, made everything work properly. He was working with their plumbing specialist via phone camera to look over everything physical, as he is a HVAC technician - which he was tremendously, tremendously knowledgeable. I can not thank him and Green Flow Solution enough for their fantastic ability, these guys are a real deal. Oh, did I mention they were very reasonably priced? We will be calling them for our every heater/HVAC/plumbing /AC needs in the future!!

I think this is my first review that isn't positive on Yelp…read more But I feel like I was just ripped off. Basically, Aundrey came here for less than one hour and cleaned the dust off the the coils of both of my air conditioners for $650 and didn't even complete the job. He did not have a wet/dry vac so he used mine. He did not bring a ladder so he used mine. He did not provide replacement filters. Breakdown of the cost: From the invoice- 'Service call fee covers technician's trip to the job site, including travel time and transportation costs.' I asked Aundrey where he came from. He said from the office which is right here in Newton. 2.6 miles. 8 minutes. = $150 First Air Conditioner: He diagnosed it immediately. Then he cleaned the coils with a brush and he used my vac as well. Look, I have no problem with him using my equipment. I just never had a worker not have his own tools. I had already bought a new filter for this air conditioner so he didn't have to replace it. Total time, about 15 minutes. = $250 Second Air Conditioner which is in the attic. There is nothing in the attic but the air conditioner unit and we do not go up there ever. You need a ladder to get up there. Aundrey didn't have one. He used one of mine. Same problem. Also, This unit needed a new filter as well and it's a different size than the one downstairs. Aundrey left it without a filter and gave me the size of the filter I should get so that I can install it myself. Again, I can't get up in the attic because I'm physically limited. So my air conditioner is currently running right now with no filter. So, he cleaned the coils for about 20 minutes and left the job undone. = $250. Invoice: $150 Travel Time and Transportation costs. $250 Coil Cleaning and installing a filter that I provided. $250 Coil Cleaning and leaving the unit without a filter _________ $650 Oh, and this nonsense about them getting back to you in 10 minutes, it's an automatic text that tells you to call them. I called after I didn't hear from them for an hour or so. That's a big sum when Aundrey took an hour total including his drive time of 8 minutes and the gas he must have used to go 2.6 miles and then not finish the job while using my tools.

I had what I consider a small job: replace two non-working shut-off valves from my kitchen water…read moreline, and one for the toilet water line. I must have called eight different plumbers or companies. Three would not provide free quotes or estimates, and they would have charged outrageous service call fees that one has to pay regardless of whether one accepts their quotes. Three companies offered free estimates and quotes. One quote was so ridiculously high, and when I questioned the price they described that the price included "Isolating water supply to unit by means of water main; relieving the pressure...." and the list went on and on, including a ridiculous list of normal steps for any plumbing job, including checking for proper functioning and leaks, as if these were the reason for the high costs listed on their estimates. It was a bit insulting. Petros was the last person I called, and he was refreshing. He asked for pictures of the valves in question, and before he gave me any quotes over the phone, he explained the options for repair and recommendations. He described the cost of the different types of valves (spoiler alert---they are not that expensive)--and explained his fee. No, he was not cheap, but I so appreciated the no-nonsense explanations and upfront pricing. I knew what the job was going to cost me, and exactly how much of the cost was going to materials vs. labor. Old fashion-business model and transparency that I appreciate. When he came to the house, he was friendly, efficient and professional; he explained and showed me what he did and what was wrong with the valves that were broken; and left the premises clean when he was done. He is a two-man company/team, so I cannot attest to how it would work calling him for larger jobs or emergency jobs, but I will definitely use his services again in the future.

Communication was clear, scheduling was straightforward, and the team arrived on time. It is most helpful that Mr. Floros uses text messaging to communicate. It makes the process so much easier. He explained the work in detail, including the equipment being installed and what to expect during and after the process. The installation itself was efficient and clean. They took care to protect the surrounding area, removed the old unit without issue, and ensured everything was properly connected and functioning before leaving. It was evident that they were experienced and followed proper installation practices. Overall, this was a well-managed, professional job. I would use them again and would recommend them to others looking for reliable plumbing work.
