Service was prompt and courteous. Cost was reasonable based on past experience with other heating and A/C contractors. Answering service with service available after hours. I will definitely use their services again! Note: service was for two units, heating and A/C, included replacing some parts.

Called at 7:30am, Thomas was on-scene at 9am.  Quickly identified bad fan unit and replaced with new fan and capacitor with new parts on-hand in his truck.  Checked coolant and added a few pounds.  Thomas was very professional, honest, knowledgeable and helpful with answering questions.  History: He was on the same work crew that did a larger HVAC equipment changeout in my home 10 years ago. 
Impressed and Very satisfied.  A Better Service Company is first on my list for any HVAC work.

Furnished and installed a Trane Air Handler.  The office staff was very friendly and responsive,  The Installers were on time the day of the install.  They were professional and courteous, and worked non-stop until the job was completed.  A minor adjustment was made for air noise at a later date.  The office staff was forward thinking and sold me an air handler that would convert to the new coolant(my compressor is now using out dated R22 Freon) when the time comes to replace the my existing compressor.  
I recommend this customer service friendly company.

A better Service Company was able to come the same day I called, after waiting almost 2 days for another company to come for the same problem.  They fixed the problem, and the price was reasonable.  I would definitely call them again.

Came out and installed the new compressor in the time frame provided. Told us to let them know if the system froze up as that would indicate a freon leak. System froze up and we called right away. They found the leak, repaired it and everything is perfect! No additional charge to repair the leak. I would highly recommend A Better Service Company for your Heating and Cooling needs!

They came out the same day I called which was a Friday. They called both times before they headed to my house to let me know when they will be there. On this trip they had to fix the furnace, they gave me an estimate of how much it would cost before they came back to finish the repair. They even explained why the unit made the noise that it was making and that it was normal. Before they left they let me know that there was nothing extra that they had to fix so the bill would not change from what I was quoted. I will definitely use them again.

Two service providers, one who goes by "Hodo" came to our house on time. We needed our air-conditioning unit serviced and wanted to consult with them about putting some more ducts into two rooms that don't get cool enough.  They did the work very quickly and let me watch and explained what they were doing as they cleaned the unit outside. Then they came inside and consulted with us about how we could make our whole system more efficient.  We talked about window units verses adding extra ducts and about adding more insulation into our attic. Hodo even got a ladder and looked into our attic for us. I couldn't imagine a more responsive crew. If we get the ducts added we are definitely going to call this company for the work.

The overall experience went well and I was very pleased to have a properly working system.  Additionally I was very pleased with the professional manner of the technician.  The fact that I could be billed after the work was a nice perk but interestingly, after waiting a month to receive a bill, I finally called and a bill was sent.

My family returned home from a trip late on a Saturday night and discovered that our A/C was not working.  I called A Better Service Mid-morning on Sunday.  The technicians arrived within an hour and quickly figured out the problem.  They replaced the motor on the outside cooling unit and had my house cooling in about half an hour.  They were also prepared and equipped to deal with the surprise wasp nest that was behind my cooling unit.  Extremely knowledgeable and professional technicians.  They had every tool and replacement part needed to solve the problem.

When I called they said they couldn't come until the next day, but they were here first thing. They did the work quickly and were not gone long to get the parts. Must admit the old fan unit looked really beat! They installed quickly, and we were cool again!
They did not leave an invoice, but said they would send one. I did not recieve a bill right away, but later got a bill saying my payment was past due. I paid promptly, and wrote on the bill that this was the first one I had seen. I'm not sure of what price other companies would have charged, but think it was a reasonable price for this repair.

I called A Better Service Company for a quote on replacing the heating and Air conditioning unit at my rental property in Tuscaloosa (I live in Kansas City). With-in a couple of hours, they had called me back with a quote on a Rheem unit that was in line with other quotes I had received. It included installation and the removal of the old unit. Asked when the work could be done and how long it would take, they said it could be done the next day (Thursday) and it would take half a day. I requested time to research the Rheem unit (which rated high with Consumer Reports) and get other bids and they were very accomodating. I called back the next day to give Linda the go ahead and was informed that unfortunatlly Thursday was booked but it could be done first time Friday morning. The tenants contacted me Monday to say that ABSC had been on time, polite, professional did a great job and did everything they promised.
